Original Drawing - "Chester" Fried Chicken - Chihuahua/Dachshund X

in #drawing7 years ago


Greetings fellow Steemians!
I have a special puppy to introduce to you, meet "Chester" Fried Chicken, or just Chester. Yes, that's his name alright! He does have the colouring of fried chicken, so maybe that was the reason, at any rate, I like his name. My husband's friend came across him during the course of her work, and could not resist his sweetness. Chester's mom was hit by a car when he was six weeks old and didn't survive. The owner, a hoarder couldn't look after him due to their own health conditions and didn't want him. Chester is the luckiest dog alive because he found an owner in Selena that needed her as much as she needed him. A match made in heaven!



I began this drawing on February 1st. I am working on an Ipad Pro with the Apple Pencil, using the app procreate.



Rough, blotchy and ugly stage.



Getting there, still blotchy looking.



Down to the finishing touches!

P.S. If anyone has a highly detailed photo of their dog, I would love to draw him/her for you and make a post like this. Feel free to message me or leave a link to your image in the comments.

The drawing looks amazing braveheart. Wish I had dog to send you a photo but sadly I do not ;(

Thank you!

Very cute 😊

Oh my goodness, what a sweetheart! xox

Thank you! How are you doing? Still working on Thomas. Not happy with it quite yet.

I'm doing okay thank you - and not to worry about Thomas Cat; I am in no hurry, and enjoying seeing all your other drawings in the meantime! The court claim has a resolution - I'm supposed to receive the costs agreed to by the end of the day today ... and then it can be put to rest, finally.

Well now, I'm still waiting for that ... she spelled my name incorrectly in my email for the e-transfer, which I only found out from the Facilitator this morning ... sigh.

👍

The earssssssssssssss of Mr. Fried Chicken and Mr. FlushyPushyTeddy!!! I'm in love! You made them look so fluffy!
I love large and fluffy ears on animals - alive, or stuffed with plush. :3

Chihuahua’s I have noticed, have very expressive ears. Two of my dogs have floppy ears, and then Chico came along with his “bat” ears. Much emotion is expresses with those ears of his, part of his charm.

part of his charm.

Couldn't have worded it better myself.

And not only are those ears a unique sight to lay your eyes on... They also feel awesome. :3 Or maybe that's just me. :3 I loved caressing my dog's ears. :3

Chester's so cute! Thank you for the post:)

Nice dog and hare. Good drawing!
