Very, very well done. You should be proud! This is expressionism bordering realism, in my opinion. Eyes are wonderful; fur isn't realistic, but evokes the feeling of softness well, while the whiskers are very life-like. Everything seems too draw the eye towards his, and the expression you captured very well!

I really appreciate this. I'm not learning any of this stuff formally, so I'm not so familiar with a lot of the terminology. But what you described sounds a whole lot like what I was going for, so I think it worked out! I referenced photographs of real foxes for this, but they were too fluffy to match the shape of Robin himself. Instead I mainly ended up doing it to better understand the facial features, and I feel like that gave me a comfortable domain between attempting realism and the original cartooniness.
Thank you so much for the comment.

You're quite welcome! Like you, I haven't learned to draw formally, either, though I have taken some art appreciation courses in college (as electives). I have a little understanding of the many, many theories behind different techniques and styles, and that's about it! Put in practice, everything I've learned has been on my own.
You did capture both as nice touch of realism and his original Disney cartoonishness. If they were to put real effort (don't misunderstand - the characters are stylized and 'cartoony' for a reaon: the artists had to draw them thousands and thousands of times!) into drawing Robin, this is how I expect he would have looked.
So for that? Well done!
