One big dog XD Critique?

edited March 2009 in Artist Alley
I was really in an art rage today so I drew this feller.<br>I like (nearly) everything about him, although there could be improvement made on the neck but I’m posting this to get some critique (and maybe some praise) for meh work! :lol: <br><br><img src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/Christy_darling/sketch.png"; alt="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/Christy_darling/sketch.png"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>I'm so crazy XD<br>I tried to smack some color on him...<br><img src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/Christy_darling/sketchcolor-1.png"; alt="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/Christy_darling/sketchcolor-1.png"; class="bb-image" />

    I like it!<br>He looks like some sort of Egyptian hound=]<br>One thing, paws.. he has none! XD<br>You can easily make paws out of the shapes you have there! =) I shall show you, if you dont mind.<br><a href="http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h14/ah6060/graphics/redline.png"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">click!</a>(i didnt want to crowd your post with a big image)<br>Another thing, study skeletal structure of dogs. The right hind leg has a much bigger thigh than the left. The front legs also wouldnt be bent do much if it were standing normally, the paws would be brought back about an inch and more vertical.

    I luffles it! Only thing I can think of is that the front leg isn't supposed to be bent backwards. There is no big joint that high up, and when standing a dog's leg normally looks pretty straight.<br><br>Otherwise its great!

    I actually really like it the way it is - its a unique cartoonish style. Clearly if you were stressing a more realisitic drawing, minor improvements would need to be made, but I really like the style you have going. I agree, it reminds me of a hound. :3

    <span style="font-size:75">I like your style. Especially your coloring. Like homygawrsh pretty. xD<br> But something really bugs me.<br>The hocks are WAY too high up. Hocks on dogs are like our heels/ankles. Could you image your foot being that big?! o.o<br>That being said, dogs walk on their toes. <br>Obviously you were going for more stylization than realism, but either way, in my honest opinion I think high hocks are simply unflattering to an image and bring out other flaws in an extremely intense manor.<br></span>

    Thank you all for your contructive critque.<br>Yes, I know that the hocks are up too high, but I only found out after I drew him and scanned him in XD<br>I'll change it and also add some nice paws to kake him looks more realistic, as karissa pointed out :wink: <br>Oh, and the right hind leg will be fixed too! :) <br>I'll try studying the anatomy more intensively.<br>But thank you all for your help. A few pairs of trained eyes are much better than just my own ones :D
