Description This is a picture of a character that belongs to starbullets for them, one of four pictures in exchange for a character design. I had fun experimenting with how to make the character basically as well-drawn and shaded as I could ;v;

Looks like a pretty cool drawing to me! I really like the colours you've chosen to use as they look really nice together, but building on that you've not gone overboard with any and have used them all in just the right amount.

You've done an excellent job on the shape of it's head too, some people do some odd things with the shapes of a dog or wolf's head but you've got that down. I also like how you've made it appear that the character is actually looking at the viewer through the position of the head and the direction their eyes are facing. Although I have no idea how those glasses are meant to stay on xD. 

If I were to say there's anything I think could use some more work, I'd say that his neck is a bit too long. Canines don't have particularly long necks I'm fairly sure but this character's is not much shorter than his body. I'm also a little confused by your shading, because I find it hard to tell where your light source is coming from (take that comment with a grain of salt though, I'm no visual artist).

Nicely done!

Nice! The black markings almost look like a shirt, which is awesome! 
 His feet could be a little more firmly planted but otherwise this guy looks fantastic!

Hello, I found your work in ProjectComment 's gallery and I'm here to give you a constructive comment!

So, first off, I'll focus on the lineart. Overall I like it, the pose is really good and I like how smooth the lines are. Also, the white border is a unique touch to it, it's cool, and the paws are great! There are just a few things that look a tad off:
 • the left ear - the way it connects to the head is a little weird, it should be a little smoother in the way that it combines with the rest.
 • the right hind leg - the back of the lower part of it is a little too rounded, whereas the left one is straighter. Also, the little joint that's technically the ankle (not sure what it's calls oops) looks too soft compared to the other. And the leg seems a bit thick right above the paw.
 • the left fore leg - it seems a bit too thin next to the left one
 • the chest - it seems a little too small compared to how low the ribcage is just behind the elbow
 • the muzzle - it seems to be kind of at the wrong angle if that makes sense. It's coming from the right spot on the face, but it's pointing down, but when you see how the rest of the face is turned it seems that the nose should be angled more at the viewer. Also, there are whisker dots, but why aren't there whiskers?

Now I'll move on to the shading. I really like the way you shaded it to give it the suggestion of fur.
 • the chest - the shoulder right under the chest fur should be shaded a bit so the fur pops out from the rest.
 • under the nose - the shading just under the nose and closer to his eye is too straight while the nose is curved, if it's the nose that's casting the shadow then the shape should be rounded outward.

I really like it though, especially the expression and colors, keep up the awesome work!

It's me from ProjectComment

This is really cute and fluffy though. And I really like how starbullet's character looks great in your style. Well-shaded, yeah, well done, so to speak. And yes, he also got glasses. Hehe, very cool, I must say.

Excellent work on this canine character. Keep it up!
