D'aww, dat face~ owo

So cute ^^

I need !! D:

Great work love!

thanks love !

I really like the face, it's just the right balance between cuteness and representing a GSD. Well you know I love this avatar but I'll tell here too ^.^

nice :D

Not bad, but its a bit on the skinny side

About skinny you just need to change the shape, thats the fun part about SL =o that and modding

I didn't make a canine since a long while actually

Problem?

Spreading the Shepatitis

ITS SO FLUFFY!!!!! I love it!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxoox

mm i really really like this! my only issue is the face fluffs seem like they are almost overpowering the rest of the face to me, kind of like theres almost too much or too large.. and i think maybe changing the jawline so that there isnt so MUCH fluffy might change that, its not a huge thing and its not something that would stop me from buying it but its just something that visually comes across awkward to me personally.

yay!! now i dont have to worry about kzk mods anymore x3

Very awesome thou i hope it comes whit a "wolf" like look as well :) i was just saying a few days argo that we neede a new awesome canine in SL guess your a mindreader oken

Sweet oken a sheppy :)

OOOO! That can totally be modded into a wolf!

I am excite!

Hmm there's something about the head that makes it look awkward.. Almost, too big. And it's a bit skinny for my tastes but then again it's female XD Overall, looks cute, just some head issues~

God, I'm so going to get this one! o-o

Head looks abit too big to me, but eh.

Ohh, that's cool! Will there be a Belgian Tervuren variant? ;)

I love your Border Collie. Glad you're doing another herding dog. Seriously, shepherd dogs are just the best!

nice very nice, indeed

It's so adorable!!!! The look of the face is really
Cute and the tail looks very awesome! Although I am hoping for a flexi tail too

cute :D

It's adorable but the nose seems a little short and the fluff is a little much in my opinion, but otherwise it looks great, I can't wait. I love your work!

The eyes are creepin me out. Too dark!

Please tell me this comes in male too. I have been looking off and on for German Shepherd AVs in SL

All of Oken's avis come in both genders.

Good, I will interested in seeing what colors they come in.

I second all of that, you basically said just what I was thinking. But I still think this is a great looking avi and am excited for it!

Very nice! Gonna grab one of these :D

constructive critique...the textures are well furred but the pattern is...wrong. it isnt settled on the body break like it should be an kinda looks lazy.An honestly not all that close to the standard marking for a germen shepp. An yes i agree with the others, the cheek fluff an nose needs work on being toned down a bit...the markings on the face need to make it more sharp looking...i suggest really studying the various markings an types of this breed an...i dunno try again. The fur also needs to be a lil more tan then chocolate. As is right now...i wouldnt buy the avi, id rather buy the mod my friend made for your Aard wolf because it looks more accurate.

http://static.ebayclassifieds.com/s.....n-shepherd.jpg It looks rather close to this pattern and Gsheps come in a number of different coats/colors ranging from lighter tan to chocolate.

On This! I am hoping to see many Brown color, coloration's for this pretty avatar. As far as the markings go I think they look very well for a WIP; There was no mistaking what the breed of Dog it was when I clicked on the preview picture :)

The nose seems a bit big, so maybe scale that down a little; and as some others have stated as well the cheek fur looks a bit off. Maybe try and have the bottom of the cheek fur meet the head? instead of having the gap?

Can't wait to see the finished product! Keep up the Amazing work! DsD has easily became my Favorite Line of Avatars

I must say I agree with shadowkat.

It looks like the Aardwolf :s I hope the legs are more friendly to chubbier shapes. I would make the snout a little bit longer and lessen the amount of cheek fluff.

And please.. Make the fur shadowing on the skin more soft ;_;

awesome it looks great

Why does those avatars never have an male legs? D: it's rlly an pain to have to make our own texture for some dog male legs because of "female" shape D: will this one be like your dragon? if so i want it <3

cause it's impossible to make thin sized males with the male shapes. You only can make big bulky males, which isn't my style at all. But i'll provide unrigged legs to be resized how you like!

Amazing always doing an amazing work x3

Omg... I can't wait

This is a gigantic improvement in overall av making. I still am in love with the old ocelot.. and it makes me wonder what the wonders of mesh can bring to many avatar types. Great work!

Gotta love it when people whimper about too skinny body types. Anyone can easily just edit it.
Lovely avi though, and I'm definetely getting one for myself~ Loving those pawsies

OMG.... with a bit of coloring changes and one slightly flopped ear....... that's my RL pup. just need a black tongue too

One thing I think I should point out, the eyes on your avatars (and usually a lot of other maker's avatars) often seem a bit too much off to the side. Predators like canines have forward-facing eyes like people do, while it's usually prey animals like rabbits that have eyes on the sides of their heads.

But it's still quite a nice avi and I want it really bad :3

It's cute!

Sadly, I'd say. German Sheppards should look more 'German'. :3c None-the-less I am looking forward to it and might get my paws on one~

Will the legs or any part of it be fitted mesh? Or keeping to regular? I think the muzzle is too thick and un-shepard-like,m or maybe too short one of those, and the fur on the cheeks looks too disconnected. I love the fur detail though, especially on the back.

legs will be regular, fitted mesh doesn't provide enough accuracy but not rigged legs will be included so you can resize them how you like. I'm sorry you dislike the muzzle and fur on the side of the head

adorable !

ce qui serait top, c'est que comme la lionne, la plupart des cheveux mesh de chez magika et truth soient compatibles sans avoir à faire de modifs ! :)

Seriously, I want one of just about everything you make XP I'ma be throwing a lot of money at ya when I find a job

The rigged legs are not gonna look wonky when I make my leg shape thicker, will they? And will the textures on the default SL body for the lower legs be textured like the rest of the body?

I had this issue with the squirrel. When I made my shape thicker, the lower leg thickness swelled over where the rigged mesh legs start, making them look awkward. Then, trying to size up the non-rigged legs only made the legs look ... way too big and disproportional. So my last resort was using the cut legs ... only to discover that the leg texture on the default SL body did not match the fur texture on the rest of the body ... it was just a solid color and made the cut legs look off. It was a great ave, but the legs just threw me off.

All in all, I love how it looks and I'm excited for it, I just don't want to run into these problems like I did with the squirrel :s

i'm sorry it's the way rigged attachments are and nothing can be done to change that. The only way is to use the unrigged legs and try to modify them. Sadly there is no way no fit every shapes.

I know it's hard to fit rigged parts, unless it's fitted mesh, but even then it's still hard. Like the way the dragons legs were fitted around the knees, so when making the legs thicker, it did not effect the mesh legs or make it look awkward. I'm assuming that's how these legs will be done.

But my other problem was the lack of fur texture on the lower legs of the squirrel. The cut feet would fit nicely if the lower legs had the same fur texture as the rest of the body instead of a solid color.
