Description Cricket (c) Laura Westrate. This is my half of a trade with the lovely Laura Westrate, aka

Cricket is a corgi x blue heeler. I love the uniqueness of this fursona! She was an utter joy to draw - I'd be surprised if there's another character quite like this anywhere. Her colors are just beautiful, and I think that's part of the reason I felt it would be a shame to shade her - the other part being that my linework usually gets overshadowed by my shading, but it was so nice and clear here I didn't want to do that. Laura and I have very different styles, and it was interesting translating Cricket into my own style. I hope you like her, Laura!

Actually 's Michi character has almost exactly the same color scheme. Beautiful job on this pic, though. I love the way you drew her muzzle.

The definition of the torso area is really lovely in this image. I don't think she looks very feminine, but that might be the nature of the character design.

If you use layers and do your lineart digitally, then you dont have to worry about messing things like that up.

There's definately a nice feel to it, although I would say... That would have to be a very tight outfit to show the abs like it is.

But otherwise, nice stuff. Detailed shading really wasn't needed for this.
