Hope it's OK!

...After all this time, I STILL don't know how to color fur...
This is the first time in months I've gotten frustrated over an artwork.

Realistic fur might come out better if the artwork does not have lineart -
But even after removing the line art on this, I couldn't do it.

I've tried all kinds of tutorials, and I just don't get it. I understand what the author is telling me but I can't make it work for me.

I feel like I'd be able to do it with colored pencils, but I don't do the traditional art thing.

ANYWAY despite the fact that I FAIL at fur, I hope you like it Lapso!
