Description This is for `LadyLincoln 's self improvement contest!

I redrew this piece:


Although I did switch mediums, the concept is the same. ( I asked `LadyLincoln prior. )

What I changed:
1. Fixed anatomy, changed posture slightly. The old version had legs that were out of place, and haunches were messed up. The tail ran into the legs somehow. xD I tried to make the pose more natural.
The head was also much to large in the old version.

2. Added more details. Eyes were almost uncolored in the old version. Fur was grainy and gross looking. Color transitions were not smooth and markings were uncertain. I tried to define things, and make it look more polished.

3. Went for more realism. I used no line art to create this piece, and I like it more. The contrast is fixed (fur patterns/ balance)
and I tried to go for a balanced, realistic look.

I hope you enjoy it!

You've definitely improved a lot! The pose looks much more natural (although perhaps the haunches need to extend a bit further to the right? [I have no idea whether I'm using the correct terms though ]), and the fur looks wonderfully fluffy. Plus, the colours of the fur are beautiful.

Great work! The improvement is evident, and the fur especially looks tons better! The eyes do look nice as well, and the colors are very good. 

Keep up the awesome work!

Yes!

I think I've improved in a year.  

I look at the old version and I'm like, "I used to draw like that? "
