This is so good. I like how you didn't use any lines for this and the white just blends in with the background. Love it.

Woooow beautiful! I love the fur right by his throat, it looks very realistic, you really understand how a dog's fur grows from his skin

Thank you very much....constant sharpening with my electric pencil sharpener...a pain in the back side really and as you probably know the lead in color pencils are so soft that it is very difficult to keep sharp...so using a quailty sharpener helps alot I use a Panasonic brand and they seem to last forever my old one finally bit the dust a few months ago but I has it since I was 18 and I am 44 now so I am hoping this new one will last me for a very long time LOL

They are soft and I tend to work them too hard, frequently breaking that needle point I worked so hard to get in order to get the darkness I want
