Description
Touched this puppy up, by moving the left leg to a position that gives him more balance, so now he isn't falling on his face. I fixed the lighting a bit too and extra special thanks to 
for their tips with the lines, which I took into practice, sharpening the points of the lines to give this more variety in line weight. Lastly, I changed the bG color to Orange to compliment the blue highlights in his fur. All work done in Photoshop CS6. Time spent approximately 6-10 hours(I never actually time myself, so I'm just pulling that number out of my ass.)

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactI want to like this, but it kind of turns me off for a number of reasons.
- I like the style and the technique. The line are cleans.
- The colouring is a bit simplistic, though it works.
- Lighting. I have no idea where the source is coming from. There's a single shadow, indicating one source. But there seems to be multiple sources. This makes the lighting look weird.
- Anatomy. This is definitely nit picking, but if that's supposed to be a raccoon, the anatomy is weird. They don't have feet or hands like that, but that can easily slide. The thing I don't like is how the muscle tones show through the fur. The reasons they show on human is because we have bare skin, racoons, however, have a layer of fur. Unless it's really short, it comes off to be a strange.
- The stance is good (except the hands are a little dorky).
I like this objectively like this picture, but I subjectively don't like it (the fur-muscle thing). It has good aesthetics, but there is nothing special or wowing about it.
