Well uh...this is for Zaws.
I just pray that you're still hanging around somewhere. I'm really sorry it took me so long to do this...I hope you're still here 'cause I really wanted to draw this for you.
To know that someone really does like the way I draw no matter how messed up it is really, really just makes my day. <3
Ohh and...I hope I got most your character right. I wasn't sure which parts of her body to make the pinkish colour so I just kinda made up some markings ... >-< And I made her eye blue because I wasn't sure of that either.
Sorry for the stupid shading...I wanted to make it look more like fur for once...but I only really like the way it worked on the tail v-v
If you do get to see this let me know if you want it redone - 'cause I'd do it gladly for someone who calls themselves a fan of my drawings.
Um yeaah.
Please don't comment if you don't like it. I'm really sorry I can't please everyone...
I draw skinny-ness intentionally. ._.

You seem very upset...is there anything I can do?
Now, this is hard one for me. See, I'm more of a realism, and my style is (as you know) very different to yours. And, as I may not draw as you do, I think your style is unique, just as mine is to me, to you, and you should be proud. Don't try and please everyone. I learnt that lesson the cruel, hard and shitty way. Trust me.
I'm really sorry about your parents. I hope that it gets better. I wouldn't know anything of the issues, because my parents haven't split up or had fights. I really do hope you are OK. I'll draw my dragons for you, to make you happy~! <3

Aweh.. you're such a sweetheart, Yellow ;^ ;
I'm alright, although I've become a lot more self concious with my drawings after a few things people have said to me - in real life and over the net.
Thank you, I don't know why I try so hard to please everyone, it's just that I love making others happy, through my drawings especially. Which is why I hardly ever draw my own characters anymore and just draw for everyone else.
My parents are fine now, they have their ups and downs and I don't think they'll ever be completely happy with each other for more than a day. But everything is fine now, we have a trip to Bali booked for October and it's made both Mum and Dad heaps happy - especially Mum 'cause she'll be there for her birthday.
But thank you so much for your concern <3 Drawing your pretty dragons will certainly make me happy c: -squishhug-

Aw, thats nice. Bali is a very beautiful place, I went there for a holiday with my family on a lovely and relaxing trip when I still lived overseas. You will really enjoy it!
I happy to hear that your parents are back together. I'm sure everything will be OK. If you want someone to talk to, then I'm on dA or on Facebook, so you can always talk to me. Hang in there, it'll be alright. ;)

I'm...not to helpful with helping others in real-life situations since I can't help myself xD It is nice to know that things are getting better.
As for the picture, I adore the way you draw fur, I really do.And the facial expressions and the faces themselves are my favorite parts of the pictures you draw. Though....I'm not a fan of skinny wolves, or animals in general. If they are thick in the torso, then draw them thick. Hell, even my own fursona is buxom/plumpy xD But, that is part of your style, and since I think everyone needs their own unique style, it is ok with me here xD

I don't comment enough, I have been a fan of your art ever since I saw the first one, I'm just to lazy to comment most of the time.

Sadowwolf, I just wanted to let you know that I like you're style and this picture is beautiful.

Cute bebe! I always love how you do the hair line art its very loose but clean. You always do great mouths for your wolves as well.
I do have a crit though. and its just because I love using thick outlines too, Try using more line variation (thick to thin lines) You place thinner lines where light its and your dark lines where shadows would be. Here is am example of what I am talking about:

Cell shading hair is layering you did a great job from what I see but add a bit more shades (My art teachers said if you want things to be more realistic shade wise, you use at least 6 shades ((but for cell I would use 4 but its up to you)) it helps you focus on where exactly the light hits and the darkest shadows are. examples:

And amg I always make my characters skinny too, but I only notice after I am done drawing them. I think its because I have always been super skinny or something.

better cell shade than the other one I found, 4 shades: [link]

Sadow, your drawings are beautiful. I can always tell if you've draw something because your style is so unique. If you like your wolves skinny, then draw them skinny. That's the beauty with art; you can draw what you want, how you want. :)

@Yellow-I've never been overseas before, so I'm rather looking foward to it ^-^ Plus I'll miss out on a bit of school :D ! Thanks again, I'll be sure to let you never if I ever need some talking to <3
@Xylom-Haha it's fine, I'm terrible with helping people out with anything myself...so no worries c: Thank you, to be honest I didn't think I did very well with expressions XD I'm glad you like them so much. Yeaah, I'm sure many people aren't fond of skinny animals and such. I mean I hate seeing skinny neglected animals in real life and stuff, but for some reason I really like the way it looks when drawing, so long as it's not like bone skinny D: (Unless you're going for a dead, scary, zombie sort of thing, then it's alright haha). I'm happy you're alright with me drawing like that, though. So thanks again ^-^'
@Angelwolf-Ohh wow, thank you so much. I don't comment too much either, so don't worry too much about that. I'm happy you like the way I draw, though c:
@Pc-Aweh thanks. I'm very glad you like it. <3
@Docile- ;^ ; Thank you so very much. I'm so glad you think so~
@Electric-Aweh thank you so much! I've always wondered how people figured out which lines to make thicker than others. Ohh and the shades! /facepalm. I actually tried to experiment with them but I didn't have enough patience and couldn't get it right at the time so I gave up D: Totally not givin' up on my next go, though.
Haha yeaah, I really like the way skinny, stylised characters look...I'm not very skinny myself or anything but it just catches my eye I guess c: Thanks again! This will help me a lot for my next pic ~<3
@Flare-Awhh. Thanks Flare c: I really do appreciate you saying that. It makes me feel so much better to know people accept the way I like to draw. ;^ ;
~
You guys promise me you'll never stop being so awesome. Promise me, please <3
