About me:
Artistically I have been a modeler for most of my life. Modeling was always fairly "easy" for me. However, there came a point when I felt that my lack of traditional artistic experience was holding me back from being as good as I can be. I feel building up that bassist intuition of what will make a piece look good is more important to being a good modeler than understanding how a normal map works or what good topology feels like. So I've started training myself in the mystical "fundamentals." As I slowly get better with one pillar I broaden my reach to another and another. One day I'll be solid enough to whip out stuff that gets an idea across likitysplit! But for now I draw, and try to keep drawing, and when I don't feel like drawing, I draw some more until my fingers have the imprint of my drawing utensil. Then I go have cheese cake.

Thank you very much!^.^
I don't mind looking at your work at all. I think your work is fun, lots of cute wolfies. I like that you mix up your designs here and there.
If you are trying to improve, You might give a look at a book called 'Animals Real and Imagined' by Terryl Whitlatch.
Also maybe take one of your designs and put it in a full body 3 quarters view with a clear light source effecting it?

You are most welcome. I find encouragement to be good artistic fuel. Keep at it!
I am not well versed in deviant art culture or services but I do not believe this is the kind of site where critical feedback is given as a norm. 'conceptart.org', 'gameartisans.org', 'polycount.com', 'cgsociety.org', and the like would be better for crits and advice from more skilled peers I should think.
