Wow, you look great!

Thanks, she did a great job ^^

I remember when you used to be grey =P

As do I. But Jet looks so pretty in this shade of brown :3

I almost though he was a Jackal =P or fox.

Nah just a brown wolf hehe

Well people sometimes mistake my deer for wolves. The only thing that's really "wolfish" are the ears. A lot of other people draw deer like I do but no one gives them grief DX.

I think your wolves look like wolves people are odd.

It's the deer that people think look like wolves =P

People apparently ignore the antlers and hooves and noses and because the ears are wolfish they should be half wolf half deer XP

Oh, oops. Got it backwards. Well I do see how their bodies are a bit bulky like you draw wolves usually but yeah I still think that those are pretty obviously deer :/

They're bulky because im used to drawing slightly or very muscled guys. Soon ill be trying to tackle a girly looking guy in my comic. I hope I can do it.

I bet you'll do great :3

Thankies ^^. I've been procrastinating the story way too long. But its so hard for me to get a character the way I want him without outraging the people here on FA XP

Eh, don't worry about those people. If they don't like it they can fuck off. You should draw the way you like to draw and if people outrage then fuck 'em :P

But people here on FA get real touchy about anything gay like. And I dont particularly like some of the enraged comments here on FA. One of my comics focuses around a gay couple one of the pair (the antagonist) is a complete douch fag-bag. He is sex-obsessed and mainly focused on a physical relationship rather than a emotional (which the main character finds out he wants more than what he though he wanted before), and the guy hates females (and threatens the hurt the main characters "sister" while the main character is away then try and convinces him that the sister had attacked him first) and is abusive towards anyone who tries and leave him or mention that he should stop being such a horn dog. I tend to notice a lot of people reacting harshly (towards the artist sometimes) on those characters.

Also the comic's world is completely unrealistic and is meant just to be there for the story to unfold to the way I want it but it's really the feelings and relationships that I want to get through as "real." I'm also not sure how the fandom will react to that it being so unrealistic and so. Ugh im just so worried about everything...I procrastinate too much.

Sorry I'm ranting so much

And thankies for supporting me. I'm sorry we don't hangout much anymore XD. We should sometime.

Hey it's all good :P you're away at college, as am I. It would be cool if we could just chat sometime though like maybe on Steam x3

Yes, I am actually leaving on Saturday. I'm on steam almost all the time (sometimes its because I forget to turn off my computer and steam) but if I'm in a game, its very likely Ill be available to talk. =3

I believe it's the head shape and the noses in particular, though the ears have a lot to do with it as well.

Thank you for your input Sidian :). I means a lot to have your help :)

Im not really sure how to change the head shape traditionally my wolfs have a more "feathered" jaw/cheek area while all others with shorter hair or a smoother face have a smooth roundish jaw/cheek area.

As for the nose I tried to use a Disney like block nose with my own addition in there. I used what I saw from other artists too.

That's why it confuses me so much that I get "told off" (I can't find the right word for it, maybe lectured) for how I draw my deer.

Look at references. Lots and lots of photo references. I'm a little unclear, are the characters you linked actually deer/wolf hybrids or are they being accused of such because of how you draw them?

They are being accused of such because of how I draw them =P

Ahh well if you're not TRYING to make them wolfy at all, this is easily remedied by looking at lots of refs and paying close attention to the details. Look at photos of a deer and a wolf side-by-side and you'll see all the differences pretty much leap out at you.
Also this may be very helpful - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11290584/

Cool thanks. The eye parts don't really apply to the deer I draw unless I want them to be "realistic" and not cartoony but everything else I will try.

Thank you ^^

Yeah when you anthroporphize a prey species you have to add a little artistic liberty there because having eyes on the sides of the head for an anthro would look really bizarre. You can bring them forward without going to the full extent of a canid-looking face, though. Deer in general aren't terribly fluffy, but you can look at caribou or elk in their winter fur if you want an example of how a fluffier deer would look around the edges of the face, etc.

I can just imagine the funny pictures streaming out onto paper.

My deer were supposed to be reindeer (caribou) and i just like fluff =P. It's my style.

Yeah caribou don't have the black noses AT ALL. They're more like horses http://thumbnails.cbc.ca/maven_lega.....aribou_620.jpg
And you can still have fluff without making it the more recognizably canine 'triangular/pointed' fluff.
I'm always happy to discuss this stuff, I just did a panel on it at a recent convention. XD

I didn't think mine were that "pointed" =P. I tried to make them rounder. and I know they don't have the black noses =O I just like to draw them, makes it easier for me to tell where stuff goes =P

I've always wanted to go to a convention and do a panel but im too scared to do public speaking and I cant afford to go to conventions XP
