Oh my! A six is a must for this guy. He is fabulous, Cleo. You did a wonderful job on his conformation, fur and expression. Of course it helps that I love wolves and have a collection of the critters, lol. Amazing work!! Anxious to see the other one you're working on. Love it!! :))shawn

Well done! The wolf certainly has a great smiling expression. Lovely colourings on the wolf, light and shadings. Nicely composed and created, well focussed.

OUTSTANDING! Cleo girl your digital paintings are truly AHHHHMAZING!
The realism of his teeth, fur, closed squinted eyes are off the chain awesome!
This is wall hanging worthy good!
Love the soft background and the incredible clarity on every last hair.
It reminds me of a photo Annie took of a wolf.
Superb work Cleo Girlie!!

Very deserving of every star attributed to this excellent work. Also hat off for the large amount of research performed to realize this carressable result. A realistic portrait of one of the many expressions wolves can adopt.

I tried to paint a wolf once and was never satisfied with the outcome. They are very hard to do but I think you nailed it. I like ve the class see eyes as though he is waiting for me to come and scratch between his ears. You really got the ruff very well and he does not look at all like a dog. Super!

If I had not known that this was digital art, I would have sworn it was a photograph. Wow! This is truly amazing. I am using speech to text and it keeps going off because I am speechless. What a work of art. Fantastic.

Comment from karen zima


Wow! Sorry, I don't have any 6's left or I'd give you one. I thought this was a photograph. The wolf does look like he is smiling and posing for his portrait. Would have made a great contest entry for the animal contest. Love all the details that you have captured. Nicely done, Cleo.
