I'd like some critiques, please! Feel free to redline if you want.

One thing I notice Is it seems like the head is too tiny for the neck and rest of the body. I would recommend just sizing it up a little or looking a reference photos of wolves or any canine. Also I see you wrote slender legs on the reference sheet and to make them smaller I would first look at a reference photo of its skeleton and see where all the joints bend so to get that slender look you can kinda stay closer to the smaller side instead of a thick leg. Sorry I'm not much help but a way to also help your character feel more alive is have their joints bent at some places so they aren't stagnant. I watched an episode of Jaiden Animations and one thing she said was pretend your character is in a box or coffin and try to draw them outside of that. I can try to draw what I mean if it doesn't make sense, but I'm kinda typing this late at night XD

So far, only thing that would make it better would be to thicken the back of the neck a bit, but otherwise perfection at the moment!

Do you have a coloring guide?

Or something like that, because I absolutely hate this, and the commissioner paid 15 apples, I can't give them this, so i have to re-do it.

Any coloring suggestions and/or steps?

You should also use more contrasting colors for things and bring out highlights and shadows in your colors.

One of my favorite ways for adding varying colors for a more realistic look is, using the basic brush, changing the flow as well as the opacity of the brush (program allowing) and going crazy XD

The more soft and varying colors you add, the better it will look. But, that is of course my personal opinion.

Also, may I critique one more thing? Your bird is lookin a bit funky. I want to sujest sizing the head way down and using smoother/straighter lines to connect the head to the body. Most Birds really don have any sharp curvatures on their neck and little distinction between the end of skull to the neck or the end of neck to the back when in flight.

Looking good! Keep up the good work!

I did this for a contest and I'm hoping the anatomy is alright, but I can't really tell...

Help me with the anatomy and the neck, it's been bugging me

(BTW it's a horse rearing )

Carpe

I would say for the last one at fur tuffs and have the fur going down not sideways ^ ^ Hope that helped a bit

Add more fur to make them look fluffy and more realistic and not slick lines as well as have some variation in the fur as it can go in different directions.

Snow

The next seems fine, probably making it more curvy rather than boxy and make the head more curvy as well not like a box. Also the hump of the horses head to their muzzle isn't a big difference it's more like a continuous slope rather than a line and a "hill"

Any critque on this boy? I did him for someone on IG.
