TearsofShadows: Thank you.

I'm glad to hear you like my...stuff. *nods*

Carmenescence: Thanks. Really, my stuff makes you want to draw things again?

agentpudge: Thank you so very much. This is the type of constructive criticism I've been waiting for. Thank you thank you thank you.

Honestly, I realized the dog's body was...off, as soon as I started drawing it. I was trying to go for a "real" look when I started out, but soon I realized things were out of proportion, and it looked rather...cartoony. So I decided to just go with it. It came out much more cartoon-like than I'd expected, and it's really not supposed to be a masterpiece or anything (considering I drew it in less than 30 minutes). I see what you mean about the 90° angle though, and how it's impossible.

I've tried to fix it just a little bit and make his back slope upwards more, but well...me being me...If I try to "fix" it anymore, I'll end up completely fucking it up. I have a tendency to do that.
I seem to have made his body a tad bit too long also, and the tail too far back (and not to mention way too large). So to fix it, I'd really have to erase the entire rear end and start over. Which would leave me with a piece of paper full of holes and eraser smudges and other icky things. So I decided to just let the dog be out of proportion and annoying. *glares at it*

Thank you again for your comment. I really appreciate it.

Anyway, here's the "fixed" product...
Once again, please excuse my evil scanner. The huge blobs and smudges aren't really there, and the pink is even, not brighter in some parts like the scan suggests.
