It is indeed! I've not met anyone with my birthdate before. Usually they're a few days off. I'll pop by to wish you happy birthday on mine ;)

I would like to know why this is on beginner? This is very well done. Awesome

Hey, this is great! I don't know why you are talking about doing realism like me. I'd love to be able to do this (and the jacket you did is awesome). I love the texture of the hair.

Yea comd, that baby hair is what caught my eye on this one, too. Really well done Shoe! You know what would be cute in the left there? A puppy looking at the baby.

Poppa; Aw, that would be! If only I didn't stink at animals.. I might as well give it a try though.
Comd; I guess no one's ever satisfied with their own work, eh?
I'm glad you guys think the hair came out alright, Considering it's baby hair, you almost have to draw every strand, and it's hard to make that not look all wiry and junk.

Fleeting; I don't usually use intermediate unless I want the extra space... and most of the time when I start a picture, I'm pretty doubtful whether or not it'll turn out intermediate-worthy. Thank you though :)

And thanks to the rest of you as well, I appreciate your comments very much :)

I saw this without the puppy. Very cute addition and nice job on both. :)

i think the puppy could have darker eyes but its still gorgeous ^^

That's so well done, I"m going to have to say it. Awwww. Great pic Shoe.

That ear is what makes this picture.

this is wonderful! I love the baby, he reminds me of my son 21 yrs ago..he had a puppy that loved him, too..tugs on my heart strings...just beautiful..

very well done, i like this pic a lot, imo you should do more like this
