Ive started modeling a dog, i thought it would make a nice change from pachyderms
Only really started on the head, i think its important to note that this is not a specific bread or a friendly family dog
Besides the creases any C&C? Obviously only just started

are you using Bolt as your reference?

...I think the ears look kinda funny, quite square near the base where they meet the head.

I think it looks like a Shiba Inu, if thats what you were going for then ide say it looks pretty good so far but different angles would be helpfull for crits.

I started using bolt as a reference but soon realised that that wasnt a good idea, so i used my own dog as a ref (cocker spaniel)

Thanks for the crits
Im definitely with you on the ears, not sure what to do to sort them tho...
I agree there's something wrong with the nose/snout, cant put my finger on it though

I just think the head is too big or snout is too small... However if i were in your position i would aim for a specific breed of dog as it will make your life easier and give you better references for what you want to create.

i thought it was a pig-fox-hybrid user added image

i think mainly because the ears look a little weird (maybe too small? too narrow at the bottom?)

and the nose is too small compared to the nose... (um... i dont know what dog parts are called) the thing with the holes for sniffing looks too small for the part of the head that its on...

maybe it looks like a pig because the cheeks are so round and high?

that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"

blocked out the body and worked on the nose, plus a few other minor changes. Im not ready for crits on the body but I need some for the snout
Im still not sure how i should change the snout. do you think the new nose looks better?
I had a bash at the ears but I not really sure how to sort them, I might go in a completly different direction with them, like a jack russell
I want the ears to look a bit like this https://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/...t-friend-1.jpg
but im not really sure what to do to get them there
do you think they should be bigger?
any c&C is greatly appreciated

It's starting to get there elephantinc,

About the ears, I agree they need to bit slightly larger, and I think the part where they enter the skull needs to be "Flattened" a little, and have slightly more of a corner to them, they look slightly to curvy there at the moment.

I've added an image to illustrate what I mean, hope it helps!

Also I think the eyes sockets are rotated slightly to much, only a little. And the top lips could do to bit more rounded, the way they look now only really happens when a dog snarls, the ones in the image I attached show what I mean.

Apart from that it's looking good so far!
