Hello! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Onyx. I've been playing around with digital art (computer only, for now), and I'd love it if I could get critiques from the wonderful community that is WolfPlay. I currently use Medibang Paint Pro and Krita, so please keep that in mind when critiquing. ^^ Thank you to all!!

This was my first time playing around on Krita. Just was trying to see what I could do with it. Ya know, learn the ropes and such. If anyone knows a better way to do highlights on the eye, please, please, please let me know!! Thank you! Credits to myself- Edited at December 23, 2021 03:13 PM by Onyx's Haven

Im so glad your exploring and willing to learn! A good first tip is finding WHERE the light is comming from, I see it comming from the top of the head strongly but also behind them on the neck. I would say when you are on that step put a light yellow orb where you'd like the light to come from, it really helps out. There also seems to be a lack of structure on the fur, add strong strands of furr, not individual clumps. FANTASTIC ON THE NOSE, a lot of people (including myself when I first started drawing both cats and wolves) forget that the nose is like a cap for canines. There is a mistake I see for the eyes, there is no catch light, the eyes look dull, a bit dead even. Add a strong thin line (light blue, almost white) curving near the eyelid following the curves of the eyes, add a dot at the end. It adds life. EDIT: Forgit to mention, use sharp lines, it adds structure. I HOPE THIS HELPS! Wishing you well on your art journey! <3 Edited at December 23, 2021 03:24 PM by The Mourning Moon

Thank you so much! ^^ I've drawn traditionally for years, but digital art is newer to me, aha. ^^' The help on the eye and fur is much, much appreciated. *-*

Of course! I just recently started drawing digitally also, I do have a program I'd recommend. Procreate, procreate is amazing, it has so many GOOD premade brushes already installed. There are more videos on it on youtube, i believe its also only 10 bucks.
If you need anything else let me know! Im always happy to help! <333

This'll be interesting to describe. I think the main part of the head needed to be more circular and the snout a little more rectangular. Otherwise I'm not sure what type of canine this is to be more specific, and I don't know enough about digital art to be of more assistence.

Yoooo I got Krita this month and I have been trying to animate on it. I also tried to paint a little, but I have to practice. I love the watercolor brushes :)

Ooh, I see what you mean! I'm honestly not sure what breed of dog it is, either. ^^" I was just doodling a canine, lol. Thank you for the tips, though! ^^

Here's a canine I drew for school, and a baby reindeer that I've been working on for a while. Just thought I'd post something here, haha! ^^ Credits to both obviously go to me (#233083)
