    There are tricks to shadows and shading with pastels, too...not everything done in pastels is doomed to look flat. It simply requires more practice with those techniques.

    If you think pastels are limited, check this out:

    Pastels have huge potential. One think the OP is doing very well is capturing the basic shapes of these animals, so it's really just depth that needs to be added to create a huge improvement.

    I have thought about it and would love to learn, but it will have to wait as I'm focusing on finishing up school. Perhaps one day!
