hehe love some of the facial expressions keep up the good work kooky

Thanks! I'll practice more. :)

yay, more faces. ^^ 3rd in the left column is CUTE. ^^

Oh the weird upward angle? Those are hard! :P Hehe.

Well nice to see you getting some face time in I agree with Wolfreign on that one being cute! But I think the bottom one in the third column and one up from the bottom in the middle column have the best design for a big cat..

It's the muzzles that are weird to me still. Very....odd. Hehe. Short 'n fat. ;)

Not short and fat!! Broad and powerful!!

sorry my mouse slipped


awww they are all so cute ^^ :P he he i think they look good
theres a few that look just a bit off to me....
but im not artist so ..yeah im really not one to say

Hehe. Thanks. I obviously need practice still though.

hey your still really awesome.. i wish i could draw like that D= at least i can sing .... but there is allways room to get better ^^ :P

I think they're coming out very sweet, Kooky! Keep it up! Must be hard to get used to feline muzzles, but you will control them in no time, I'm sure :D

I dunno about that but hopefully some better. ;)

Ooh, does this mean we get to see kitties from you!?

From looking at several photographs of big cats, it appears if you were to draw a line from the top middle of their forehead down to their nose, it would be close to straight. There is some variation by species and individual, and it may be slightly concave on some (and is actually convex, i.e. curved outward, on others) but is usually pretty close to straight. This is in contrast to a wolf or fox where there is a very pronounced indent just below the eyes where the muzzle begins. In this respect, of the sketches here it looks like the bottom two on the left and the bottom one on the right are closest.

Hope this helps.

Heeey there. Cool, thanks for the feedback and advice on them! And yeah hope to be able to draw felines a bit more often. The muzzles are obviously way different from what I'm normally used to. I'll try straighter lines for the guides though next time I practice them. :)

nice! Good expressions!

He stole my comment!

lol aww, I sorries XD *gives the comment back to you*

*eats it* Yum.

lol XD

Nuuuu was mine though!

I made a copy, all is well *gives you the comment again*

kitty muzzle look like this ;3 you got to give their teeth plenty of room.

Hehe! Yeah that's true, do need wider muzzle tipes at the end there.

Ehhhh was good practice I suppose all in all.

It's nice to see an artist I admire working to improve their abilities. I don't know how often I've seen a new work from an artist I've noticed and wondered why they've tagged the image with something like 'marmoset' or 'civet' or 'whooping crane' when in fact they've simply created a slightly off-model canine. Some folks seem to figure that coloration and a file name are all that's needed to depict any given species.

Ahem. *steps off the soapbox*

Sorry. Didn't mean to get carried away there. But I do want to commend you on working on something that is obviously difficult for the express purpose of improving your skills. That's one of the reasons I'll always keep my eye on you and your work.

And yes, 1st column 3rd row is absolutely adorable. I generally don't squee, it's not in my nature. But if I did, it would be for something like that.

Oh stop now, making me blush. :D Thanks! Though sadly my feline practice kinda ended there and don't really think much progress was made with it. I am finding it difficult getting different species to really LOOK like their species instead of just different colored off-model vulpines, like you said up top. Tricky though. :P :)
