annoying white lines. >| Better viewed here.

Wow, this took me a very long time. I've been working at it on and off for about 4 days and that fur drove me absolutely crazy, especially with a mouse xD But I'm really happy about how it came out and kinda proud of it too <3

I'm not really all too bothered about anatomy, but if you see anything that you think looks very wrong then I'd like to know. Also if you think the direction of the fur is a bit weird.

And his fur is meant to be bristly by the way c:

[e] this was my last drawing of him :'D

..wwwwwowwwwwwww 0_0 I'm impressed that you made all that fur detail with a mouse. That's crazy! Not many people have the patience to make fur even when they have a pencil or a tablet.
His antlers are so cool, too! I love how darkly colored they are and how that makes the flowers really pop out at you.

The fur direction is a little strange, although like you said his fur is meant to be bristly. After finishing the outline of your drawing, it really helps to sketch in arrow-guides for which direction the hair should be going.
Having a reference of a deer helps clear up any anatomy uncertainty. I love to watch videos of deer on Youtube to get some nice action references C:

But really he looks just totally awesome. <3

Bayleen, thank you! <333

Fishbiscuit,

Thanks very much for the advice, I'll definitely do that next time. It was my first time doing the fur so hopefully I'll get the hang of it soon (: And the fur did drive me insane, I promise you 8D
