This is a great drawing, and strangely, my sister drew one almost identical to this.
The eye looks very strange in this, the black pencil above the left eye make that eye look angry, whereas the other one looks sad, which sort of leaves the viewer trying to work out what the dog is feeling.
It's the same situation with the snout; it looks as though the alaskan is snarling but then I see differently.
I love the shading on the hair though, it looks very realistic, and you've blended between the two colors seamlessly.
Stunning drawing, this is the most realistic I've ever seen

Hi, I am a HUGE malamute fan! May I just say that is the most realistic drawing of a malamute I have ever seen. How did you do it?
