African Wild Dog Christmas

EDIT: I added more stars to the sky and gave it some color. The flat sky version was bugging me -.-

This is for a contest, with the group. Found a new way to make fur! I like it
Uh, Im pretty surprised I got this done in time. I worked on it for like, three straight hours last night (12 to 3 AM) and two hours today. Fun fun.
So I really kind of like this picture. The background is, fine I suppose. And the ice lake is kind of cool. And overall "okay" drawing. The Dog is definitely the best aspect of the drawing.
So Im happy

Enjoy please! And wish me luck
