I feel really accomplished. lol. I've had this guy planned out for SO long and FINALLY managed to find some motivation and time in my schedule to draw him a ref. I wasn't sure how he'd turn out on paper, but I'm in love. Might make him a main character and find some artists to draw him I was gonna use Rex in my story too, but it's not a definite yet.
On another note, I'm fairly pleased with the anatomy on this one. It always takes me like half an hour to sketch the hind legs of German Shepherds. Besides the uneven height of the closer hind leg, if there's anything wrong with them, constructive crits are welcome :]
I'm also accomplished in having drawn the character facing to the right! (A quick glance through my gallery will back that up.. lol)
Would anyone be interested in a simple one-pose ref like this? Or a simple flat-color character? I'm considering opening a commission slot or two. Might auction one off on furry-paws.com as well P:
There are American and East/West German lines. There is also a difference between the working and show lines in the East/West German dogs c: I'm not an expert on the breed, but it seems to me like the East lines are generally darker and a little more stocky. I think they also have less of a slope in their back, although I didn't depict that very well in my drawing P:

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Project Comment is a project that features the generally obscured and underappreciated artists and their art in regular news articles. Our objective is to recognise deviants who deserve more recognition and to feature deviations with less than 10 original comments.
