Description A sketch commission for ~LamishHamish of her old pet Airedale Terrier named Hamish.

Commission information: [link]

Critiques warmly welcomed! I'd especially like advice on making dogs look breed-specific (does this dog look like an Airedale Terrier?).

Traditionally sketched.
Time spent: A couple of hours.

I think you got that Airedale terrier look down quite nicely for this one :> They are a wonderful breed, at least look-wise, for that's as far as my knowledge really goes, haha.
Anyhow, felt like I should comment on something of yours, and your sketches are definitely worth a few words, at least. So beautiful work, as usual; I really like the line quality and variations amongst it, as well as the hatching <3

I knew this was an Airedale from the little picture on my deviantwatch messages. Good job!

This reminds me of my first dog so much, I adore it. And so, yes it definitely reads an airedale. The only critique I could offer is to add a little "curl/wave" to the fluff to make it look a little more wiry and put a little more upwards angle under the torso for the deep 'dale chest ( I know with this angle it would be difficult, though) .. if that makes sense. Everything else looks great!

I instantly knew this was an Airedale! :] Beautifully done, I especially love the strong nose, mustache, eyebrows, and those paws are to die for.
