Description A quick gift for a friend who owns a whippet with a big personality.

This was my first time ever drawing the breed, and although I used a reference photo (one of Vieno's own photos, not sure if it's publically available on web, sorry ) there probably still are some anatomical errors in the drawing. It's surprisingly hard to suddenly switch to drawing short-haired dogs after countless fluffy lapphunds. xD I'm glad I did, though, it's fun to do something a bit different for a change. Even if it's just a little bit different (dogs, dogs, dogs... still dogs).

The texture in the drawing was kindly provided by at [link]

I love this! My baby Pippin, an Italian Greyhound, passed away last month. You've really captured the expression in this whippet's face. I too would be interested in hearing your rates, when you open again.

Unfortunately I can't take any more commissions at this point, but I'll probably offer them again in the future. Most likely there'll be an hourly rate (I'm still deciding on what it'll be) so the price will depend on the amount of work. Sorry I can't be any more specific right now. Generally, though, longhaired dogs take much more work than shorthaired ones.
