Painting for dads father's day! Im not too sure if he has net access right now so I hope he sees it soon.

I anthropomorphized you dad!

Iv always seen my dad as a silver fox, partially cause I turned his hair grey early with my psycotic teen years lol. I don't care to make my parents wolves simply cause my fursona is, I prefer to go with a phenotype that suits their personality.

My father is a trickster, mischevious, teasing and sometimes annoying. Hes rather foxy xP Also a huge camerawhore.

To me this resembles him very well in my head but heres a human picture for comparison (bad angle) [link] I reffed a different pic for his facial features.
I also took the time to try and make the shading more realistic and properly define the lightsource. Taking into consideration some pointers you guys gave me :3
The only thing bothering me here is that his hands are a little too feminine and slim. Claws don't help either.

The background is a snippit from one of his photos: [link] appropriately. But don't use them without permission cause their not stock ;}

Happy fathers day dad! :iconsun-seeker: check out his amazing photography!

Oh how neat!
That's definitely a wicked father's day gift.
Such a wonderful expression. It's got that hint of mischievous without being too obvious.

The way you drew that muzzle, particularly with that tiny tip of a canine, looks fantastic.

Yeah, his hands do seem a bit feminine. Perhaps making them a bit larger and thicker would make it less so. Your dad seems awesome :) I'm sure he'll appreciate the gift.

Of course I said I was going to try and help you improve by critiquing but wow...not much I can say on this o.O

I agree with Remik0 about making the hands thicker, but maybe shorter fingers would help too? I tend to associate longer, slender fingers to be feminine, while shorter fingers can be more masculine (of course this doesn't apply all the time since I have short, stubby fingers ^^; )

Anywho, that's the only constructive comment I can offer on this piece. I think that you incorporated him well into the photo behind him. The lighting is spot on from what I can tell, although I might suggest adding a bit more orangey lighting around his head since it's directly in front of the sunset. Perhaps you tried that though? I dunno, just a thought. It might be too orange if you add too much more o.o;

Well, otherwise, I think this is a wonderful gift for daddeh's day :D
