Yeah the zebra one is a bit better. Do you ever use drawing pencils? Ive gotten a little bit familiar with drawing but it takes forever so I have a feeling Im not goign to improve much farther then im at right now. I also use mechanical pencils...the reason I say that is your lines are just a little harsh and tend to not be very consistently smooth/ straight. This was obviously rushed a bit due to the time, but i can tell you obviously can draw (especially with the face on this one). I would reccomend you maybe purchase some paper tortillions OR juse use kleenex/ eye make up thing (i dont kno, i think Taiia said she used it, someone said it anyway. Ive only used tortillions).

Anyway, I'd reccomend you start tryin some realistic drawing. It takes forever, and its pretty hard (especially proportions-though yours arent bad if these are all free-hand which i think they are). Its easily the funnest though, and it makes you look a LOT better then you really are. You just go slow, make your light lines first...i think youd probably know how to get it down-only you go a lot more detailed and youd have to draw in the fur too. The payoff is great though-if your ever interested to try it try looking on google-I went to 'how to draw a face' or 'how to draw a portrait' and learned that. I think that would be helpful, especially in getting photo realistic animal faces...and then obviously you can search for 'how to draw realistic animals' or something. Get the book "How to draw Realistic Portraits" by Lee Hammond, or get it from your library OR just find it in a bookstore and read it there. I wasnt planning on buying it but after i looked through it i had to have it-its really good.

Just thought Id tell you that realistic pencil art is fun to do....you should try it. I have the coolest drawing of a wolf that someone did in my favorites gallery, its amazing you should check it out sometime. Youd have to page through a bunch though to find it probably
