Lovely picci!
??? i would give constructive critisism but i haven't got any, it looks perfect to me lol...
I totally agree with you. I considered drawing his expression in my style, but in the end decided to go with a more 'realistic' look. Wish that I had done otherwise, but oh well. There will be many more dogs to come.
regarding the coloring, it just looks to me like the color is too uniform. some darker shades of red, orange and some brown would help. and a highlighting pencil. when i color in colored pencil (wow, i havent done it in years come to think of it), i always colored the white parts as well so the colors would kind of mute together, leaving you without the harsh line where the color ends. there are also colorless blending sticks. they take away the line strokes of the pencils and give it a much softer look.
I don't use colored pencils much, so the tips are very much appreciated.
