Hi there, I'm by no means an advanced (or even intermediate) artist in my mind but here are the things that seemed to pop out for me at first glance that I thought could help. I think the biggest improvement we can attain can be achieved by having a closer look at husky (and kitty while we're at it) faces in real life and their proportions! Canine features more often tend to be a lot more slender and longer in contrast to feline ones especially in side profile, given their much longer and narrower snouts! Their chin also tends to be a bit less pronounced than the stronger and much more clearly visible lower jaws of cats. So taking that in consideration I believe that extending the snout out a fair bit more would really help in this case, maybe trimming a tiny bit off the chin to make it slightly smaller, play around with it, best not stick with my direct examples in the drawover. Another thing of note is their nose, while at first it may appear a lot more circular it is a bit more complicated than that and I would love to refer you to a very good blog post from Tracie Thompson on the matter as it dwells into the topic with well thought out illustrations much better than I can, however it seems like links are not supported, I would encourage you to look it up for yourself, the title of their blogpost is 'Drawing Dog Noses. Why is it so HARD?'. But to summarize it is much more like a box with its sides 'cut' to soften it on an angle, the nostrils also tend to be much more closer toward the front in a side view and tend to have a crease. It really helped me to try and visualize it in a more 3D environment in mind or on paper (I tried sketching a whole bunch of dog noses after finding that blog post from different angles while writing and had a bit of fun with it). You may play around with the size of it however you like but in my example I settled on a much smaller one similar to the photo I used for reference. The next thing I thought about was the shape and proportional size of the canine's eye in a profile view, having a look online I found that they are also quite angular and tend to take a lot less space overall on the canines face, thus it could help us to resize and reshape the eye slightly to reflect that, it doesnt have to be as drastic as my change but I think it would overall go a long way to help you achieve a more canine look to your character. Now lets take a quick look at the ears, after having a look at some more husky references I noticed that the shape of their ears seems to be pretty similar to each other, however much less than a conical sphere it felt to me more like a few combined shapes (you can see some of the thought process on the sketch. The tips of the ears tend to have a rather distinct rounded at the end of a triangle shape and they tend to face much more towards the front and the focus of their attention in general (mainly just the reference photos that I looked at) but this may obviously change depending on the sounds around them, so I imagine if your character is listening to muisc it would make sense for their ears to veer more towards the general direction of where it is coming from. If we compare all this to your character we can certainly see a bit of what makes it feel much more 'cat' like as you put it, as cats have a much shorter snout (check), bigger eyes (for the relative size of their head(check)) and that much more triangular shape of their nose that I noticed in your sketch (check!). Overall I think the best you can do going forward is take a closer look and compare in reality at what it is you are trying to bring to life in your style, have a look at some images of huskies, outline the basic shapes they might tend to share, note the proportions of their features and if you feel that your character is appearing to look more 'cat-like' than you want then maybe have a look at some images of cats and see why could that be, again compare the two. Another thing that helps me is to take some more time on the sketch and mess around with it from the start and conceptualize it more, put the character in some different poses, turn them around to be facing different angles etc. I do not know how much time you spent on yours before deciding on things so this is not really any form of critique, but this is simply something that I find greatly helps me. Just to note its my first time leave any sort of feedback so this may very well be quite silly or go overboard in detail or be all over the place but I hope that you may find this helpful, once again I do not feel like my skills as an artist are at a level where I can freely judge or critique the art of others so this is very much just feedback and I wanted to give it some form of a try and see if I could potentially help. This is partially the reason why I chose a sketch to leave feedback on rather than any finished piece or linework. Anyways hope this helps! P.S. One other things I was taking a look at while writing this, was "Felines vs Canines tutorial - Faces" By FelisGlacialis over on DeviantArt that could really help. | Artwod Feedback
