Scanned in sidekick

Scanned the finished sketch into Photoshop and set up the channels to make it into a line art piece, making it easier for me to colour in and make variations. I really enjoyed this process and didnt take me long at all, im very pleased with the outcome and has boosted my confidence a bit about the whole project.

This is the line art, simply made a new layer and draw over the sketch to get a crisper and thicker line. Then iI made a channal layer so I could colour in and not lose the lines, also I edited areas to make the proportions more realistic such as making the back legs thicker and the head larger.

I started adding colour but there are areas I still need to fine tune such as the mouth, paws and claws

This is the finished product, as you can see the paws are alot neater and the mouth is alot more anatomically correct. I changed the colour or the eyes to get a more wolf like feel
