Description Cherry Trees can be quite a delight, I happen to have a few on my campus.

This is my half of a trade with of two of her OCs, taking a moment to themselves under a cherry tree.

It seems Razor has awoken just in time to see the first falling of the tree's pedals.

Hope you enjoy Razor!

This is an amazing picture to begin with, the depth is there and so are the shading and highlights. However, there are a few things that look a little off in the picture, the wolves look a little to big compared to that cherry tree, I don't know if the tree is further away and the wolves are closer to you but that seems a little off, so if you are going to do that then I would keep the wolves to scale and add a little shading where the wolf is. If he/she is by the tree then you would have made him/her smaller and added shading to the back of the tree slightly. Now with the wolf, Razor the eyes are a little too slanted and I would recommend looking at a wolf's picture to see how the eyes are, you need to make the muzzle slightly more pointed and the actually structure a little narrower. I like how you made the petals fall around, they make the picture seem a little more relaxing, and calm then just a couple of wolves laying at the base of a cherry tree. If you just made those few changes then this picture would look twice as awesome! ^^ It is such an amazing scenery and you used such good detail of near and far.

Please draw more pictures like this! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)"/>

Thank you very much for the critique.

Yes, the piece was originally going to have the wolves sitting at the base of the tree. About halfway through I realized there was a large size difference, so I attempted to depict that the tree was farther off. But as you probably know, that's not an easy task to accomplish once painting has already begun XD

Thank you for the advice on the anatomy, I'll probably do a few head studies in the near future.

Again, thank you very much for the critique.
