Monty turned out great! The contrasts of black and white and everything in between is superb. Poor thing looks like he could use a bath and a good brushing

As I believe I've told you, I really like the fur on this! Also, the eyes look really intensive, very cool, and the black background make a nice contrast to the dog, it could've looked a bit dull if you would've had a lighter background. So well done

if you really feel like you must touch up the top of the head, then i guess a couple of suggestive pencil strokes wouldn't hurt the drawing, but really, i like it the way it is. monty has her own little corona. a fine tribute, and i'm sure your friend will be pleased.

his nose looks just like dogs nose...shining like plastic [thats what i always says about dogs nose-looking like plastic]
his ears are done so well.
his eyes got a lots of expression, and so much life.
his fure is probebly was the most hard to do...and you have done it with lots of energy.
good work david!!!

I love your work for this dog, but don't like the flash on the top of his head maybe if you take another picture without the flash will be better to show your drawing better! Still i fav it because your work on this very beautiful!

Aww it's lovely David...white fur IS a nightmare to draw in graphite (it's easier in coloured pencils ) I'm sure you friend will be over the moon with him.

Thank you so much Ruth what do you think regarding the white glare spot, i said to another watcher i like to keep my drawings as close to the photo so i don't loose the likeness but does it make it look unfinished

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

RTyson In reply to Dabull04 [2007-08-28 13:07:23 +0000 UTC]

you're welcome hmmm....well for one thing I don't think the photo you've posted will be a true representation of what your drawing actually looks like. I'm guessing that it might have some very subtle tones that the camera/scanner hasn't picked up, but anyway even if not, the sun does completely wash away some detail, my Tommy drawing, for instance, has a couple of completely white areas because the eye just wouldn't pick up any detail in those bright areas....That's the thing with realism, it is drawing what you see, not what you know is there. But to sum up...I don't think it looks unfinished, I know what has caused that glare and so will the lady who commissioned it and it is her that you want it to be right for.

White fur drives me up a tree too; I think you handled it well, though. Amazingly detailed and well-planned. That background is ideal, I think. Very nice work! I'm sure she'll be thrilled!

Ah--the finished tribute at last! R.I.P. Monty (...poor puppy... **sniffles**)--I know his family will just adore this. The details are great (and I think the wet fur looks wonderful), and I'd fave it for that expression alone. Just lovely!
