Wow, I am ecstatic with how this turned out!

Done with India ink (black and colors), and watercolor markers. I only drew one side of this, then mirrored and combined the image in MS Paint. I eyeballed from several Canadian Eskimo dog photos; there aren't a whole lot of photos of these majestic animals online, but enough headshots to get the proportions right and reference the mouth from any breed for the unique pose.

My style inspirations were Andres Pries and this poster I have in my room, by Phil Lewis. In the end, I managed to add my own flavour while learning from their works.

Wow, I really love the colors you used! The red and the blue compliment each other so nicely!
And that's some serious progress you've made since last year. The amount of detail this time compared to last time is astounding, and the development of your style is amazing as well.
I'm excited to see how your art's going to adapt this upcoming year, I'm sure it'll be great!

Thanks Infinite! I think I will try to draw more of these kinds of portraits of other animals in the future . They look cool and aren't too difficult to do. I am hoping for progress as well! As my gallery grows, hopefully we will all get to see that.

The comparison is pretty striking! The markers are so much more precise than painting with brushes for me. And using MS Paint really helped too XD
