I mean compared to this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3430304/
It's just that it looks different. I was also wondering if it was a purposeful stylistic choice or just the direction your art's going.

I think it's the direction my art is going. I admit to changing the markings a tad bit compared to the image you posted. Also, I did ink the two pieces with a different technique for each. I do tend to try to mix up styles from time to time rather than stick to just one. It depends on how much time I had or how creative I'm feeling.
I think the shape is okay, though it does just make the head seem too large, and the lack of a low jawline makes the neck look too long. MilesDF has a similar problem with this, even though he's a pretty good artist.
Sorry to just come out of the blue, but this new style does look a bit weird. A few little proportion changes without changing the shapes would help.
But then, I'm a sucker for wild expressions, and that's more difficult to do with a short muzzle with a low nose. I might just be biased.

Please, don't apologize! I can't express enough how much gratitude I have for solid, honest, constructive criticism. I should be thanking you for willing to share this with me, so thank you again!
I see what you mean by the jaw line and long neck, and I have noticed it in Miles' work too. Hmm. Something for me to look out for. Again, thank you for sharing this. It's comments that yours that I really appreciate within this community. Such words will only help me to improve as an artist, so again, thank you for sharing your thoughts!
