For some reason, all my husband said when I showed him the finished result was ... "Nose 'oles!"

You honestly don't cease to amaze me. Wonderful drawing! Photo realistic details and a great, kind of comical expression - after staring for a while he kind of, bizarrely, reminds me of Charlie Chaplin I dont know exactly how to explain it but he does!

Thanks I did a really old doggie too called Lucy. It had cataracts, a bent nose and a droopy mouth. I thought it was soooooooooo cute because it was kinda ugly but it was really loved by its owners. It had a very sweet expressions, and you could see its little teeth too But I don't think I'll put dear Lucy on DA because people might say nasty things

Liner315 In reply to balloonfactory [2007-12-27 15:14:02 +0000 UTC]

Well that's a bummer. I'd love to see what Lucy looks like.

You should post it and disable the comments. That way there will be no negativity.
