So I was wondering if it looks good so far or what I need to change and maybe like a redline or something?

_{Hi there! You asked for a critique so here you go.

I've only done a few, so it won't be perfect. But I hope I can help you!

What I like is the stomach fluff and that nose is gorgeous. I also adore your scenery in the back (and can't wait to see it finished!). Also that left ear is great.

Here is one thing I noticed instantly, that eye is unfinished and a little wonky. The top of the eye should be aligned with the eye. Also your neck fluff should be out a little more, to give it more depth (if it's standing!). I'm not sure if it's meant to be standing or sitting (so sorry if it is sitting, then it should be okay). Also, the mouth should be a little closer, to make that howling sound (instead of a bark).

In this picture: [link], I circled the areas I was talking about. I hope this helps!

Reasonings behind stars:

Vision: This is just a line-art, which is a process to finish a piece, so not much visual (but more than a sketch).
Originality: I've seen many wolf heads howling, but your style makes it a little different.
Technique: Your style makes this original, and I like how most of your lines are the same thickness (minus the eye). You also got most of the anatomy correct of this wolf!
Impact: Kind of explainable. It's good, so it makes me smile. But it doesn't make me fall out of my chair and want to see more.}
