Yeah, my coloring skills suck pretty bad. Overall I thought it turned out okay. Thoughts/comments are welcome.

Aw Don't let yourself down man, it looks great, you keep practicing for months or even years and you'll master it soon. Heck I'm getting better on the Wii U tablet better than ever and it even improved me alot on my hand drawing.

It looks great! What did you use to colour it?

I used colors. I don't have a tablet, so that's really the only thing I can draw digitally with.

It looks really good!

Okay, to reduce the random white pixels from autofill/bucket easily, put lineart and colors on different layers. You can even duplicate the lineart to bucket tool the colors on the bottom one if you're attached to it and your lineart is a solid black. Makes it easier to fix the white pixels in that case. I'd assume by "I use colors" you're using MSPaint but I see some blurring which I'm not sure if it's capable of. Either way, I recommend Sai or GIMP as they're cheap and free respectively and can handle layers.

 

Quadrupedal animals tend to have the elbows by their chest, remembering that might help with the chunky forelegs. You should probably also fill in that area under the leaf-mane, the belly shows that it should be visible. His tail probably needs to be visible too. I think he'd look cute with his canines showing considering he has a huge smile going on. I like the reduction of black and replacing it with brown, it looks cute. Overall, pretty good job with maintaining shape with what I assume is a mouse. :3

I think Elric means he's using Colors!, the 3DS/Smartphone app.

 

Or perhaps the original Colors!, the DS homebrew app.

 

I really like it! It's certainly better than most of the guff that's posted on the Colors! gallery.

Oh, forgot that existed. It can support that high of a resolution? o_o Must've been why it didn't cross my mind. Would explain the color blurring haha.
