Well, people, it's currently freezing cold and snowing in England, so what better night for an art dump, eh?? :dummy: This is my part of a LONG overdue art trade with the fabulous *PinkPoodle543 - her Standard Poodle character, Ellie. I love her! I mean, damn. She has some fabulous pink going on there, and the back leg markings are frigging boss.
This is my first attempt at drawing a real Standard and I wanted to nail everything - facial quirks like correct eye shaping, the right size nose, and I DID want to include her paws but I ran out of room. XD I'm having a lot of technical difficulties when it comes to porportions just lately. :XD:
I really hope you like it! I forgot her ear bows right up until this was like, 50% coloured and quickly had to sketch them in, lol - I'm no good with bows and ribbons and things like that.
I really like this character! So fun to draw. :la:

I know, right? She has an awesome design for sure!
Thank you so much! I'm not used to drawing the more sort of ... fragile, delicate dog breeds, so the fact that she's a poodle was pretty interesting, you know?

YES. I hate this with a passion!

It's a shame poodles are trimmed in such a way that they look ridiculous. I much prefer the puppy cut but I guess they'll always look floofy and silly. I do love Standards though. I've heard such good things about their temperaments. :)

I know. To me, poodles look great as they are, so I don't understand the need for making them look silly, lol. I do like the puppy cut, though! It's very cute. And yeah - most poodles I've been around are always so well behaved. :)

They rationalize the cut, but no show-cut poodle (well, it's something different in the UK, but whatever) will ever work a day in its life. WORKING poodles are not cut like that because it is time-consuming and impractical. Not that poodles work these days. XD Few dogs are used for that anymore. Still. It's probably faster and cheaper to do the puppy cut anyway.

Lovely! :heart: She's so cute here, and fluffy~ She looks like she'd be great to hug on a cold night like you're having, lol.
Especially loving the face and tail here. And fabulous shading, doll.
