Description
Finally done! I started this near the end of August. I'm happy with it for now, but I may make some changes later. I promise that some day I will take a decent picture!!! -picture fail-If there is a want, I will upload some close-ups of each pup.
Acrylic 14x36 (I think)
Update 11/02/11:
Edited the grey one's foot, black one's ear, added back legs to the brown one. I changed all of the eyes slightly as well.

TheyΒ΄re so cute! The black one with the stick reminds me of Fell from The Sight when he was a puppy...

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! *excited squeal*
Another Clement-Davies fan!
Did you read Fire Bringer and Fell as well? (I know Fire Bringer is not a wolf book, but itΒ΄s also EPIC! Best book about deer known to me...)

I did! Loved it! Have you read "The Telling Pool" by him as well? Not my favorite but still good.

Telling Pool? Not yet.....

It's a lovely piece, with a few anatomical flaws that have mostly been pointed out already. Although I think the brown and tan wolf pup's right front leg is positioned a little too far forward.
One thing you might like to consider if you did another piece is to put the pups in quite different poses. They've all got the two paws up, two paws down, pose, which looks a bit too uniform. I would probably have made one jumping - probably the black one, and looking back at his siblings. One of the things I learned in an "illustrating children's book" lecture was that the viewer's eye automatically follows the illustrated characters lines of sight - and therefore you need to keep their gaze within the page - by not having them stare off the edge.

Thank you for the ideas!

the back right leg on the grey wolf seems a little off in how it is placed in comparession with the rest of that pup. But other then that it looks really awsome. I specialy like how you did the fur on the third wolf (the brown one).

Hehe, okay then! The black pup looks good, especially the mouth and legs, but there is something off with proportion of the face... I can't quite put my finger on it. The eye looks placed wrong, but then again it may look that way due to the placement of the ears or something. 
The white pup's only problem, as far as I can see, is the eye. This time I'm quite certain that it should be placed lower, and maybe even more forward. But the rest of him looks great.
As for the brown and tan pup, you got his eye really well. But there is a problem with the muzzle. I think all you need to do is make the lip begin higher, so that it sort of tapers from the nose. It's kind of hard to explain, but hopefully you'll get what I'm saying if you look at a picture (like this: [link] )
Thank you for being brave and letting me critique! I hope that this can help you in some way.

I tried to make the black pup's head turn toward the viewer, maybe that is why it looks weird. I agree with the grey pup, I think the eye should be bigger too.
Thanks for the suggestions! If I ever get around to editing it I will definitely take this into consideration.

Nice work! I LOVE the idea, setting, and composition - it's a really lovely painting. My only critique would concern the pups' anatomy. I could go into detail if you wanted, but I won't trouble you with it.

Sure! Critique away.
