Balto: A True Hero

Well, this originally was going to be a serious drawing, but I got impatient and it turned into more of a sketch/doodle.

My main intention of this drawing was to prove that MSPaint is just as good as Photoshop or Sai. It gets really annoying whenever people say that they are limited with their drawing abilities because all they have is Paint and a mouse. They say if they get a really expensive painting program and a tablet that they'll be the best artist you've ever seen. Personally I think MSPaint helps you grow more as an artist because you can't hide your mistakes behind all those fancy filters. You have to do everything manually which in return makes you better.

I also drew this because I wanted to start using Paint again, I need a break from Gimp. So, I'd really like some critique from you guys. Specifically on anatomy, shading, and tips for using Paint. (Goodness, I haven't use Paint in ages, I forgot half of the short cuts and tricks)
