Please don't just say, "I like it!" or "It sucks!"

ELABORATE!

If you don't have a suggestion, but you like the pic tell me what you like about it or if you don't like it (which is fine) them tell me why.
Okay? Got it?

Here's the pic

Please let me know how to improve.

I like the drawing, its a great drawing. But, here are some suggestions.
The snow seems a little bla. Try adding some detail into the snow or a sparkaly texture.
The paw lines for his toes are a bit hard to see. Try adding some depth into them. Unless your going for a lineless look.

The drawing is very good,but also,you could make the teeth a bit smaller.

Thanks for the suggestions ^^

Mighty: The snow could use some detail *thinks* I know how I could do it too *will practice on snow* Also about the paws, I do kinda go for a lineless look, but I agree that the toes need some depth. I'll try shading inbetween them on future pics and see how it turns out.

Alpha: Thank you, I actually didn't notice until you pointed it out. The teeth do look to big, I guess I was trying to fill in his mouth or something. I'll have to pay closer attention to teeth size next time

It's a great picture, but I think the main thing that needs a bit of work is the pose.

The pose there is actually very awkward and you can't really tell if he's running or struggling to pull. This is because at least one of his back legs should be closer to the ground.

Here are some dog pulling and dog running poses, because they can explain better than I can XD

This one is a running on an awkward angle, he might be turning or something, but you can still tell that he's running.

A malamute (I think) pulling. This might be closer to what you need.

Some sort of dog pulling.



See what I mean? Other than that your drawing is awesome, I think.

He's supposed to be pulling downhill, so it's kinda loose and he's taking a running leap. It does look a bit off though, I'll work on it. Thanks for the advice, the pics helped a lot!
