Art numérique : peindre un portrait d'animal de compagnie réaliste

Hey thanks so much for posting this here, so i can have a good look at it :) On IG I couldn't even see there were hearts on the snout, that's just the cutest &lt;3  As for the tongue and mouth, i see that they're still in the flat color stage. You could use the soft round brush on a low opacity to start adding shadows and volume to it. If you're unsure about the palette it's totally okay to use the eyedropper tool to select colors from your reference. Adding shadows, darker tones to the mouth will make it look like a cavity.  Also, a general tip for the fur : I see you've already started painting small hairs. What I recommend to do is to first have a look at the general directions of the fur in your reference (like in the lesson "fur fundamentals)  <img src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/parentClasses/efed50e6787040712f96189682c414bd/75d81a57" class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" alt="75d81a57" /> Once you've done this, pick up a larger brush and paint a few general strokes in the same directions. I always start with larger chunks of fur, and i add small details (individual strands of hair like in your painting) later when i have a better idea of what the fur should look like. I believe i show some examples of this in one of the exercises (attachments) in the class, feel free to have a look :) I hope this is helpful, don't hesitate if you have more questions or updates on your progress!

I hope this shows up! I am getting the most amazing help of the teacher on Instagram and I wanted to say one thing: THANK YOU!!!! The reference photo is from pixabay.
 I have no idea what to do with the mouth (and tongue). The teacher asked if I could post it here. :)
 (I am still busy with it and learning but you can see all the progress on my Instagram @kaqisiawaii and do not forget to look at the teacher her Instagram @margawart!)
