I keed, I keed.

reminds me of our 3 dogs who were best friends right up until the day they died.

Omigosh. So many of my favorite dog breeds... all in one picture. o.O; And, it has *language*! The coolness overwhelms all..!
Oy, I totally *adore* Akitas--they're my favorite dog breed, though I'm very fond of Chow Chows, Jindos, Shibas, and other nordic-type Asian breeds as well. Throw in the fact that I'm currently studying Japanese, and have been to Japan, and previously taken Chinese culture and Asian-American studies classes and whatever else, and this picture just wins on SO many levels. ^.^
Total instafave. And, kudos to you on such an awesome piece of art! ^.^

Aww, thank you ^^ I'm thinking of doing another one with a variation on the theme... like costumes and such. Because we are not all the same, dangit. *is Chinese* (and why are the Japanese the only ones with the kewlness factor? WHERE IS THE CHINESE/KOREAN LOVE D
Ahem, apologies. Thanks VERY much :3

I know *I* certainly am interested in Chinese and Korean culture and language... I only began studying Japanese because (once upon a time when I was young and naive) I wanted to study animation there. As it is, I had planned on taking Chinese this fall semester in college, but I've already exceeded my unit limits by quite a bit... 
I think a variation of this pic, with cultural costumes and whatnot, is a simply smashing idea.

KOREA EAT DOG ;D
The chow is so fat anf fluffy and happyperfect. Chows are my favorite fluffdogs. You do dog's well.

Okay, first off, I adore your style! And I love the simple background in comparison to the more-detailed dogs. It's absolutely brilliant!
Secondly, I was wondering if you'd mind if I printed this out as 'research' for my art assignment? With credit and such, of course! It's just that I was reading through the comments, and I saw you said something about people thinking Korean, Japanese and Chinese were all the same. I'm basically doing something on generalisations and stereotypes, and this is an absolutely BRILLIANT representation of that :3 (I'm planning on doing something with animals representing certain people, too, so it fits even more!)
I just thought I'd ask first!
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
omg. *falls over* I'm honoured that you'd want to use this! As long as you give credit where it's due, it's perfectly fine with me ^^ Thanks for the compliments!

Aaaw you drew a chow chow. :3 They look like big poofy bears. And so cat-like personality wise. They are my fav of the poof dogs. ^__^

Heee~ good to know at least some of them are okay by you. haha. I have a healthy appreciation for them, but I'd take a hound any day of the week :3

I love the concept! Great idea

I think this is excellent! You've captured each breed's standard perfectly...expression and all. Akitas and Jindos are the best!

Thanks! Always good to know that I'm doing accurate representations

I have a ChowChow! I love chows! I've never met a Jindo, and I find Akitas to be very intriguing...*has only met one, but she loved her!* And I hate how everyone thinks fluffy, pointed-eared dogs are all the same.
People, a Malamute is NOT a husky, and there IS a differenced between Alaskan and Siberian, and a spitz is NOT a german shepard, and a...*continues on for a while*
Very cute drawing, by the way...^_^; The faces are adorable, and I love the ChowChow's black tongue 8D

Thank you!

Well...about the same point, right? xD My bad...
But the point on the whole culture thing is right, too lol *giggles and feels stupid* Buuutttt...the general point is the same. People know a little something about a large group (i.e. the idea of dogs, or Oriental cultures) and don't bother to know much more beyond that, assuming that subtlties don't matter. Granted, I don't know much about Asian cultures, but what I do know is fascinating, and I know if I was part of a culture that was often lumped into a large group like that, I wouldn't appreciate it...

*huggles akita* thier so lovely, i want one so bad

I absolutely loved how you portrayed them differently based on their nationalities or whatever. It's a basic but cute and effective idea.
The chow... harrrr. I agree with you on them being formal and polite. All their expressions fit perfectly to their personalities.
I just love that jindo.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
LOL, I wasn't even thinking about that was the best part xDD Now that you mention it, I do notice that. The Jindo is just chillin'. The Chow is all formally courteous and the Akita is all "OHAYOUGOZAIMASU! KAWAII NEEEE~" that's awesome. I didn't even know I was doing it.
...I want to make them characters ow. Thank you o.o

T_T i cant understand what they are saying, -feelsbad- 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Um, that's okay, Fox. I'm not asking you to understand.. I translate all of them in the description. They're all saying 'hello' in Chinese, Korean and Japanese. My point is that the three different scripts look different from each other.
And there's no need to give me all your French! I believe you.

The chow chow speaks chineese, akita japaneese, and I have no idea what is that dog in the middle
Are the others correct?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Haha, yep! The dog in the middle is a Korean Jindo dog. So he's saying hi in Korean

That there is a difference between Chinese, Japanese and Koreans is basically the meat of my point here.
Thankies.
