I'm not the best at drawing realistic wolves but this came out okay :> I'll add notes in a few minutes, I'm going to my Grandma's and have no wifi access until then X)

I'm back!

Head
  • First off, a wolf's head isn't quite that small. If you were aiming for a dog it's pretty good, but Wolves' heads are about the size of their necks.
  • You're pretty spot on with the ear size. Most people tend to oversize a wolf's ears but that looks very nice :> The only suggestion I have is to make them less pointed. When you draw a wolf's ear, try to imagine combining a bear's ear with a cat's ear!
  • The eyes are far too big. If that's just your style, that's perfectly fine, but if you were aiming for realistic, make them slightly larger than the nose!
  • A wolf's muzzle kind of slopes off the main head rather than coming off as a square. This is kind of difficult to get down, as you can see I can't really get it perfectly either ^^"

Body
  • The body is around three times the length of the head.
  • Wolves do have dips in their belly areas, but it's not very visible, and mostly just looks flat. I messed this up on my redline, but just try to make it straight rather than dipping c:

Tail
  • You have the length of the tail perfectly, so no need to worry about that c:
  • Make the tail a bit thicker. Wolves' tails are fluffy CX

Legs
  • A wolf's legs are probably one of the most difficult parts of the animal to draw. I can't really give you many tips on this other than draw legs a lot X)
  • Overall you did pretty good with the legs, just make the area where the muscles are a bit thicker. Wolves are very muscular :3

That's pretty much it! Just use a lot of references as well :) I had to use four to draw this c:
