So first of all, sorry for the crappy quality. >_____>;
My camera doesn't like me to breathe while I'm taking pictures, so this is the clearest thing I got.
Secondly, the proportions look a bit different in real life. . .?

Anyway, this is my first pen sketch in like. . .years. And I actually love the way it's coming out. O': It's a newish style and everything, too.

Note that the weird thing that looks like a boa around his shoulders is eventually going to be one of those hoodies with the fur trimming. Which I find ironic, because Jenki's a furry, himself. . .

And I may also eventually shade his hair so that it's not just a shaded beard. xDDD;

AAAAAND I know the jawline looks crazy weird. >_____>;



FEEDBACK NOW PLEASE.

it's good so far, i agree, it will look finished once it has shading inthe hair smile

i like the character itself, not your generic anthro, which is good



for the sketch, the guideline circle is overstated. one circle should do it. any more and it's overkill, and in this case, a bit distracting and detracting from the character drawing because of its thickness.

be careful about "petting the line". one line should suffice for indication unless you're thickening it or shading


you'll work faster and learn accuracy

A pen sketch like that would be hard to finish off decently with some nice shading but you could probably make it work, try avoiding any unnecessary lines as with a pencil sketch. Still looks good so far regardless smile .
 
     

If you'd like me to make you a signature like mine, message me and I'll try my best for free smile .

I'm sure you've notice pen is way different than pencil, try not to make your lines so sketchy it's really hard to fix them up later.
Pen is difficult and I think you did a great job with it! Add to his hair and the fur and this will be a great picture. smile
