I'd like to say thank you, because I do appreciate the complement but I don't want to feel like I really got it perfect... the day I draw something perfectly is the day I cease being an artist ^_^

verry nice boddy. wish i could draw like that.

Just practice practice practice XD

you can practice all you want, if you don't have the talent for it it just doesn't look like shit

a few minor errors here and there, but overall very nicely done. *applauds*

Hehe, thanks. If you have the eye for catching the little things then let me have it ^^ I'll need to be harshly critiqued before being told I've done a good job. It's all part of the learning process :P

The biggest thing is that the neck is too thick. I'll try and make the time to do a redline to point out the other things for you.

Hmm... As far as the neck goes, if you look at a real dog/wolf their necks are as wide or wider than their heads. For example:

So I would be aiming for a less fluffy version of this:

I've been trying to develop my style by testing out aspects of realism. The neck is however cocked back at a little bit of a strained angle because of the dropped right arm, which is indeed a miss on my part.

Thanks for the pointer though. Any input on proportions would be great too.

oh, now I see it. Yeah it's the funny angle.
