O_O' WOAH! I thought I was actually looking at a real wolf's eye at first... anyways, I would just suggest to make it look to be less.. sketchy. Maybe add some blur, blending, and smudges to it? It will make it appear smoother.

I did that behind the main area but... yeah, it probably also looks funny cuz I never get how to make highlights look like it's making something shine, like the shinning fur. I just don't want to smudge it too much cuz... well... it will look odd and not like fur, duh xD But thanks so much! x3

**I tried a LITTLE bit of blending, but when I did the main layer no matter what I tried it ended up looking like a mess... So I may try something a little different later.

It's a good start, but I do have a few things to point out.
A wolf's pupil is not shaped like that. the only animals whose pupils are like that are felines and reptiles. They have circular pupils just like we do. ;3 Also, what is the white stuff coming from it's eye on the left side? O.o;;

When drawing I always suggest using a reference. c: They help you learn and you can always compare the two for differences.

Ahhh, I see. xD The reason it looks like that is because it's photoshopped. xD A pretty well job of it, too.
