Cross Breed Terrier Ty

Ty
Greetings Readers,
               I made this post some days ago and scheduled it to go live on Wednesday, but for some reason it has not, although I took into account the time difference etc.....any ideas ?
               I also apologise for how the previous post looks, a bit untidy to say the least, however checking the preview it did not appear like that, so methinks I will need to put a little more thought in to how I lay out the pictures/text in a post.

              This is a little cross breed called Ty, however I am not sure what sort of mix he is, but going by those funky ears, he might have a little bit Papillion in him.Unfortunately I did not do a wip of this dog,so it is just this single picture that I can share with you which is from one of my own photographs taken at a local dog show earlier on in 2011.
         Colour palette for the fur consisted of blue grey,black grape,black,chocolate and a range of cool greys. Around the mouth area I used caput mortum, french grey and some beige to get that dirty chin look, and for the tongue, flesh colour pink,carmine, cinnamon and blue grey. The eyes were a mix of dark brown, terracotta and burnt umber.
           I used for the first time Fabriano Artistico which is a little creamier in colour than the Fabriano 5 which is my usual choice, and I am still undecided about it, so more experimentation is needed. Size for this is 12 x 10 inches.
