Doing a realistic portrait like this is tedious work, it takes time...spend a few more hours on it today, and are close to finished on the dog. Still got some more detail work left, but getting closer. Finished the nose, still using the same grays, browns and black. Will adjust the values on the nose more when the background is done. I save some loose hairs for last, to make a more realistic look. Next up will be the background.

Hej Merethe !
It's a great work, no doubt.
The chosen position is a very good one and you are depicting the dog's perspective flawlessly (sp?).
It has a perfect level of realism because it doesn't look "photographic".
God Jul!

Hi José, nice to see you!
Thank you, I'm trying to develop a better technique for animals, I'm glad to hear it's working! :)
Natal feliz!
