Colored pencils are excellent for capturing the fine fur details and layering shades for depth on the dogs. Fine-tip markers or gel pens can be used for precise outlining and adding small highlights to eyes. For the larger ground area, broader markers or pastels can create smooth coverage.
Outline the main shapes first before filling in. Use light, even pressure to avoid streaks. Work on one section at a time, like the parent's body, then the puppy, then the ground. Don't be afraid to take breaks and come back with fresh eyes.
Use cross-hatching to define fur direction on the parent's coat. Employ layering with multiple shades to create depth and volume, especially on the longer fur areas. Practice feathering techniques for soft transitions around the puppy's edges. Add subtle shadow work beneath the dogs to ground them.

Beside the parent, a small, fluffy German Shepherd puppy sits slightly angled, looking up at the parent with curious eyes. The puppy's paws are neatly tucked under its body.
