Artist's Comments

i do them no justice ;^;

i had a hard time figuring out how to color the sesame, since their hair isn't just brown in some areas, some of the red hairs are dark brown-tipped. it'd be easy if i wasn't doing just flats, so i settled with this. if you don't like it, whatever- don't tell me.

these are just four examples of the shiba colors, all of the above can be a different hue, with more white, or less. with these, i tried sticking to the standard markings, especially with the b&t since that and the cream/buff colors are my favorite. i hope to get a b&t one day X3 anyway, this was mainly an experiment because i'm planning on making a picture Mellie's littermates all together. i'm designing two girl shiba inu characters right now, a r/w and a chocolate toned b/t. :3

but thats for another time.


btw, if anyone's wondering the fonts are from dafont.com, as always :3

Your style is perfect for shibas. Something about the way you draw them makes them look the way (I think) they should. Lovely~

I hope to own a Black-and-tan and a Red shiba someday |D

I think you did a marvelous job with the color blending on the Sesame color fur! :heart: And I adore their expressions! I thought you reused the lineart four times, but then I saw the little tongue sticking out on the black and tan one! :love: Love them! Great layout and background choice as well! :clap:

I'm not weird, I'm conformity challenged.

they're adorable. :heart: I love how they're so similar to the icelandic sheepdog. japanese that come here often think my dog (straight haired icelandic sheepdog) is a shiba inu. :3
