This thread will grow to include more of my art. For now, we have only Rinksha. Why her? She's my female wolf character, and one of the wolves I plan on joining as. A penny for your thoughts?

She's a cute character. She's got a slightly thinner look, and it gives her a little more femininity. I just have some anatomy issues. This is a very good basic picture but here are some things ive noted that will hopefully help you further your skills and style.
My only real issue is the facial features, though you've taken on a more cartoony style it's always good to have features that can really define an animal as what they really are. Because honestly if you had not of said wolf I could have assumed her to be maybe a dog or a fox or a dingo yaknow? That's because you have a bit of starter's template style, so all animals of a similar base appearance (like species of canines, species of cats or species of equins, etc) will seem to have a very similar appearance to them besides color scheme or special attributes like jewelry.
A wolf's brow is not so rounded, but moreso peaked, the forehead coming down rather straight and at an angle outwards. There is a peak where the brow and muzzle meet as one and then the muzzle itself continues that slight slope all the way to the nose. As well muzzles are not so long and take on some very specific angles that are a little more drastic then what you've drawn.

Oh wow this turned into a large comment. xD Sorry if it seems I'm picking things apart, I just thought it might be helpful to critique seeing as you asked for my thoughts.
