Awww, he's so cute!
Polar bears are just about the most amazing animals, from an artistic perspective. They can pull off vicious, cute, strong, cuddly, cool... You can do anything with them!
It's kind of strange that you don't see more bear characters, come to think of it.

Thanks :3
Yeah xD
I'm surprised there aren't more bear characters as well, wolves take just about all the spotlight here...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Silly wolves! It's like they shoved bears and foxes together... and the result isn't as impressive as either of the originals!

Gorgeous piece - I love the detail of the icicles and the different poses, and you draw the thick fur texture very well!

I had clearly in the title that it wasn't my character when you commented...
I took it off because the long title was bothering me, but it's the first thing in the description now.

It probably took around 3-5 hours. I don't time myself, so I can't really give an exact number of hours it takes me for something, sorry
And I use SAI <:

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks <:
How do they look digitigrade exactly? I can see how the back foot on the bottom left hand corner one kinda looks that way, but the others I tried to make the bottoms of the feet as flat as possible.

I can't really explain through text so here's a small red line kay?
I hope I'm not offending you or anything btw
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So basically just the back feet?
Does it look better now? <:

mhmm

Thanks c:
Haha, I know I'm not perfect and I'm always wanting to improve, so I try to take advice of most critiques that I get. I like to critique people sometimes as well, so I would be a hypocrite not to accept it myself.
I would basically only take offense to a 'critique' that goes along the lines of 'you suck' or only focuses on negative, because I don't exactly consider that critique, more along the lines of criticism lol.

Oh indeed lol I hate how childish/rude some people can be 
but same here
feel free to critique any of my work too btw
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes xD It's like when you get a comment only pointing out nothing but flaws, it makes you think "did I do anything right?" haha.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know it really brings down ones spirits D: lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed :< That's why I try to be as positive as possible when critiquing someone :'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I try to be too, but I think sometimes I fail D:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
D: Well it is kinda hard to sound nice when pointing out mistakes, especially online where there's no tone of voice...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Looks awesome. I'm glad one (especially one so good) was done, since I'll be making a plush of him soon.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you c:
Ooh, a plush? That sounds awesome
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's cool <: I wish I could make plushies. There's so many other things in art I want to try, but can't because I don't have the material or money to buy material haha. :'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I get all sorts of materials thrown at me, espeically around the holidays. xD No one knows what I'm into besides art, so I always get all sorts of random artsy stuff.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lucky xD I always get either clothes or gift cards since no one knows what to get me lol
At least my parents let me buy some art supplies online when we get the money, but then I never know what to buy D:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. Most my money goes to food, bills and pets. I get what I need when I need it, but that's really it. I have some ex-artists who give me leftovers. Mostly fabrics from my friends' parents and my grandma. That's why I got into sewing. My grandma taught me how to make blankets and pillows as a kid. Now I make plushies.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same xD And if we're moving any time soon, we're going to need to spend money on new furniture/appliances, which isn't going to be cheap D:
That's awesome c: I fail so bad at sewing, I think the only thing I've sewn in my life is a little pillow thing made with cotton and felt in a home ec class in the 6th grade
I don't have too many other friends or people that give me stuff irl, but I do have some craft stuff left over from when we were kids that we said we were going to use, but never did, but only now some of it got messed up over the years. x3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Understandable. I'll be moving before too dreadfully long, so I'm putting a lot of money up in the bank.
You should try some new stuff when you can. It's very refreshing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Good luck <:
I will when I'm able, I love trying new things :'D One reason I'm always experimenting with art and don't stick with one definite style lol, I love variety :'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Holy Ra, this is amazing <33 Everything's...perfect ;A; I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. I will draw you. Art. Sometime. Soon. Yes. ;w; Once I finish my paid commissions I shall D'8 Thank you SO SO much, he looks so gorgeous ;u;
I also like the Icicle thing in his name >:'D
Btdubs, I'mma post this without having it sent to people's inboxes, since it's a really big pet peeve of mine when people fave things that aren't mine >__>;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you so much, very glad I got everything right :'D
You're welcome ;u; <33
Yay c': And take your time
Hehe, I love decorating their names with relevant stuff xD

Hee, I don't usually see you getting things wrong |D You're probs like me; epitome of marking nazi. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ffff I totally am xD
Ever since I got yelled at for getting a design wrong a few years back, I've always tried my best to get markings and stuff as correct as possible :'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've never been scolded that terrible, but I do try my best because I'm so self-conscious with myself and my art |D
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I probably needed that wake up call when I got it though haha, it made me try harder :'D
It made me pretty sad at the time though and I kept beating my self up mentally for making so many mistakes lol xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha :'D
Awwww ;w; DUN BEAT URSELF UPZ
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
;u; <3
I don't so much any more because I want to have more fun with art again instead of dwelling over small things and art becoming a major stressor, because that's what happened to me before for a while, and I was getting more and more procastinatory and it wasn't as fun anymore. I hate that feeling. D':
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I learned that I still do my best, if not better, if I treat art as a fun pastime instead of a 'necessary' one, so art and I are on okay terms at the moment. Not every day, but more than before xD
