Tell you what NP...the orang & tiger are fab but the gorilla is amazing! The look in his eyes! Awesome...

And what were you holding up for those doggies to pose so well?? A plateful of steak?!!

I think they are all fantastic my favourite is the second one down its got thought in its eyes.

They are very good....such "knowing" eyes......The dogs.....eek....wouldn't like to meet them en masse....lol

Couldnt choose if my life depended on it! Theyre ALL brilliant!

Aww Nosey....they are all so lovely......The expression in the 1st one's eyes is so pleading......its beautiful.......How did you manage to get the devil into all the dogs eyes though he he he .......

I wouldn't want to have to choose between them Leigh , the Orangutan is amazing , you have a way with the eyes in all your wild animals , it's as though you know what they are thinking ...
November the 16th is a good day for you .!!!

What did you say to those dogs to make them line up like that .. LOL....

as you know i think you are one talented guy. the gorilla is breath taking. and your dogs are great.

I know nothing about art but think you have captured each of the animals brilliantly and shown their character through the eyes.
At last someone with as many dogs as me LoL

No 2 and 3 both have amazing eyes you have talent as already said. Hope it goes well for you

Good luck, Leigh! :-)

They are really good Np and I wish you well in the competition. Your dogs are cute sitting for the camera even if you did bribe them.......

though im agraphobic and scared of flying i watch every animal program and always have.i wish i could get over this phobia.me and rajang at colchester zoo hes just gone 40 definatley connected yet he took no notice of lots of other people and they didnt realy him.you see there is looking i believe and actualy seeing.not always the same thing.i dont just own lots of dogs i am part of there pack as much as they are part of mine .i thaught i was there teacher but i have learnt so much from them .there honest .they dont mean to wee on ya floor.they dont mean to chew up your 3`000 pound three piece .its imaterial to them.my dogs or my family have there little tiffs but look at what us humans do.snails dont even maliciously eat ya lettice and amiy`s honey fungus hasnt got it in for her garden.its us humans who have these perameters not animals.ill never understand what some people do but i like to think i do know the nature of nature.it has logic and meaning.though a dog will remember whos boss and a cat will remember dogs are perhaps dangerous they generaly think for the now.we can learn a lot from them and its bean a real pleasure having,seeing and touching them like they have touched me.its the least i can do to draw them even to a bit of there splender.ill stop runnining on there im sure theres a valid message there for us all.my dogs are all good natured as i am there boss and i thank a life with dogs and ceaser millan the dog whisperer for this.they are sitting for just a cheap treat thats all.amy has sean them.merkin the one who looks like a pit bull is awsomly powerfull with a heart of gold.jerry whos 11 is the daddy though blanche the tan pug cross tests him as like i described shes if you like the naughty one.sausage is a bit snobby and aloof and dominates but shadows merkin.as for little sid i dont know yet as hes only 7 months old.hes not quite the cute dog he looks but nearly .bye the way the second orange down just mite be the best thing i ever drew and like i said i just mite devote most of my drawing skills to these lovley animals.well ill just shut up now thanx again for your great support take care bye for now .

they are all wonderfull, good luck with the comp NP :o)

ow the devil eyes are just red eye from my cheep camera dogs dont even understand the consept of devil lol xx thanx milky

sausage she is a chinese shar-pei or fighting dog but i dont have any of that nonsance .they used to drug them to fight.she is very confident and cocky but im the boss.i have to be so they behave with the odd squable.dogs need a boss ie the human or they make there own and get dominant and i couldnt keep 5 dogs together .there privats what ever there nature and im the sargant lol .and thanx again
