Syndication Nuzlocke concept art 3

When I make this concept art, I do research on real world equivalents of the things in the game. Apparently fennec foxes can be kept as relatively tame house pets. You walk them with a harness. They even bark like dogs. Not sure if the shadows on Serena's hair are right. I'm still working on shading. It takes as long as the lineart and color layer combined, which is not good. I believe a cartoonist's best tool is his/her speed, so I'm making sure to shade on all of these to practice.
