This is not a recent piece, the coloring job is.

About a year and a half to two years ago, I got a Sketchpad and drawing materials, and How to Draw book that ...didn't have the referencing help I needed ^^; But I started doodling in it. This was about the 3rd piece I had drawn in it, that I'm able to fix slightly and then sat down the other day to color in.

...I know the head/mouth looks lame, as does the arms/paws...but I was still learning when I drew it, alright!?

I drew the jacket on him before I knew of the existence of "Nordguard"
