Everything is a dog.

NO everything is a WOLF

I love everything about this.

It really sums up 99% of furry art, doesn't it?? XD

Yes, yes it does.
And it's not all people who are still learning, there are some out there that REFUSE to learn.

Yep, my feelings exactly. :p

Love this! <3

Thanks!

I love your anatomies

Aw thank you!
I'm definitely better than I used to be... my rabbits used to look like long eared dogs.

I haven't drawn a legit rabbit, partly because I am fairly certain I will jack it up beyond all belief.

But ya gotta try!
c'mon, let's draw bunnies! *peer pressure*

I dunno...what if I get addicted?

Psssh, it's not like you'll get hooked if you do it just ONCE.

Could I die?

bro died

ABOUT TIME SOMEONE MAKES THIS.
I'm NOT a bloody dog! >.>

I do agree

I answered the unheard cries of the rabbits.

The way you draw their noses is sweet.

I just draw them the way they look

I love rabbits and this is actually a great tutorial of how it is anatomically correct. I may also use this guide if I do draw some bunny girls to actually have it corrected. Thanks much!

I'm glad this could be of use!

<:X I guess I draw them a bit too long then oops

Yours don't look too long, especially since you're keeping more of the original headshape.

I'm glad you think so. :) I'll still try to draw them a little more accurately~

You should see how my rabbits used to look, XD.
I've been using this a lot for photo reference http://theabsolutebunniestposts.tumblr.com/
They don't really have a great tagging system, but there's some good sized photos.

Hares 'n English lops have longer noses than other buns, heehee! <3

More annoying trends—
paw-pads
"button" noses
digitigrade‎
2 teeth
tail from halfway up the back

yes
yes
yes
yes
yes

overgrown buck teeth really bother me, especially when it's not a super cartoony rabbit.
I've mostly been neutral about the digitigrade thing so long as it fits. Like a mostly animal looking anthro rabbit walking up on it's toes makes some sense as it would be hard to walk on two legs in that form, but it' starts to be kind of weird when the anthro has a mostly human body.

I'll definitely use this as needed... I think the only rabbit I've drawn had a button-nose in the user's ref.

You know you wanna go draw rabbits now. *peer pressure*

May we re-post on the Bunnies Group page?

Sure.

I really like this...makes me want to draw a bunny

doooooo eeeeet

Thank you SO MUCH for this holy crap.
Also, since a lot of people are viewing this, maybe you could add a note or something that they don't have paw pads?
It bugs me to no end when people draw rabbits with paw pads.

It bugs me too, that's why I had previously made a tutorial on rabbits.

Anatomically, this is all correct and understood, and a nice job all around but, There are just some things that can't just be ruled out, since there are different things to keep in mind. Like the canon of your character, humans don't regularly have Looooong facial features, but some artists will go over board and stretch these features dramatically to emphasize the characters personality and whatnot. Pretty much, if it's something like dog noses, dog muzzles, or something silly like this, yeah incorrect, but art is too flexible to say things like facial features etc. are incorrect, this even goes for the buckteeth, if the artist likes them enough to emphasize it, they aren't doing anything wrong.

The point of the little note that everyone is nitpicking over, is that when you have a 90 degree angle between the brow and the muzzle instead of a sloping transition it looks more like a dog than a rabbit.
When drawing a cartoon animal, a person should focus on what features make that animal memorable and what sort of exaggerations make it more of a character, rather than just sticking a dog nose on everything, thus assuring the death of variety in all character designs.

Anyways, like I stated in the description that people are so good at ignoring, this is just a guide on drawing some rabbit features for people that are unfamiliar with rabbits, no one has to take my word as gospel.

I'm only sharing my view point and wasn't replying so much to the drawing as much as the comments and replies, I didn't ignore anything. I understand people see things differently, really.

It's a good tutorial for straight realism or pseudo realism, I'm not arguing about any part of the image. I'm only stating that exaggerated features are not "wrong" no matter what they are. People have many different perspectives on what is right and what is wrong, and I think that's great. Don't get angry at me because you think I'm ignoring your note, I'm just sharing a comment and I'd like it to be respected as well.

I never said anything was outright wrong, just that certain things imply a more dog-like nature than rabbit. I never said exaggerated features are wrong in anyway, just that they should focus on the original animal that is being exagerated, informed exaggeration will result in a much more recognizable animal, rather than everything looking like a dog.

You assume that I am angry and not respecting your views just because I state my views on the subject? I wasn't really miffed before, I just don't see a point in lacing everything with sugar to make it go down.

I think we might be misunderstanding each other. So I'm not going to say anything more about assumptions or anything. Text can get misinterpreted pretty easily. It's usually hard to state opinions on fa without starting arguments which is why I'm trying to be as nice as I can "probably failing", so I've only been trying to avoid that.

Anyways I was only making a statement about long muzzles and buckteeth, and that's about it. Sorry if I made it into anything else.

I'm just saying that I only made this as a basic starting point for drawing rabbit anthros. I can't speak to drawing more exaggerated styles since I don't draw that way and don't have the experience to say anything comprehensive about it. It's highly out of place to come in talking about styles in a tutorial that is just about basic concepts. Your statement implied that I was trying to tell people they couldn't do certain things.

Yeah sorry about that haha. Wasn't really trying to imply anything like that.

I still don't mind a debate, but there's really not much I can say when it comes to more cartoonish styles since my experience is fairly minimal.

Yes, I try my best to create anthros (particularly the faces) differently from each other :) Here's my latest rabbit picture where I tried to give a rabbit like face
http://www.furaffinity.net/full/12706356/ I don't know how well I portrayed the rabbit look, but I've always wanted my characters to look like what they are. I don't want people having to look at what the animal is tagged as to know what the animal is :)
Though I'm guilty of putting little buck teeth on my bunnies, I actually do it for a lot of my characters. As I have a small overbite myself, I like to put them on my characters as well!

Oh wow, that looks beautiful, and definitely rabbit like.

Well, anyone can have an overbite, it just shouldn't be used as a species indicator. I personally find it cute for some characters.

Thank you!
Yes that's very tree!

Ahh this will help me so much ;3; I can never find a decent refrance/tutial for rabbit faces ;3;

Glad I could help.
Rabbits can be difficult for people, especially since the their faces don't match up much with human faces- unlike dogs who have forward facing eyes and similar face proportions.

I'm relating new in drawing anthros so anything that can help is wounderful to find~ and I have found rabbits hard xD

Thank you for this! I sat down today wanting to draw some buns and then I realized 'shit. I've never drawn an anthro rabbit that wasn't super simplified before'. I don't draw anthros a lot but snouts are easy. And rabbits don't have them and look so different with their heads. e.e

I'm always glad I can help someone with drawing! If you post it, I would love to see!

It'll probably be done in a few days. The sketch is done now I just have to scan it, ink it and color it digitally.

So far I really like how it turned out, especially considering everything about the picture is 100% out of my comfort zone.

Phew... I finally finished it. Here's my first result. Not the best but not too bad for a first try I think http://www.furaffinity.net/view/18406935/

Are the eyes on an anthro rabbit usually almond-like? I was having difficulty with choosing a good eye shape.

They can be, it's mostly just how I like drawing my rabbits. In reality their eye shapes can be as varied as any person- it's good to keep in mind the character's personality, like narrow eyes for a someone who is suspicious and world weary, or big wide eyes for an innocent, happy-go-lucky type.
Here's a massive bunch of resources you can use

Super helpful thank you!

Hi

Thank you, this is quite handy.
