Year and years and I still haven't nailed down the look of the big beast. This is pretty much the general look of the DracoPuma, though, my skills are sorely lacking when it comes to drawing draconic heads. Figuring out what goes on inside that maw is a major difficulty for me, since I can't seem to draw an open mouth to my satisfaction.
Not quite rough sketches, but definitely not finished.

hmmm... I dunno what you think looks wrong exactly! ;P
I took a good look at the maw and I almost really can't think of anything
except a 'slight' miscalculation in the large front teeth and where the jaw ends!
But I'm not a good artist so I can't really give that information.
it looks really awesome in my opinion! :)

I can more than understand why any artist would have reservations about their art (I'm no different with my writing) but frankly shi looks pretty excellent as shi is.
Granted the mouth interiors are a bit confusing given which species shi's a mix of, but the overall look of the head is great.

Sweetie I'm getting that funny mental image again....
*peers into the endless aybss that is Dracopuma's maw!* I tell you flossing must be a real bitch for hir. Speicaly if shi is dinning on all those poor people and buildings...
But sie so cute how can you resist. If I remeber sie does have a long tongue and 200ft or so tall.
Mmmmm like I said kyute... or maybe I'm just partial?
Lovely job as always, wish I could draw the open maw look :P

I'm weird in that I love macros sometimes... but I can never UNDERSTAND them for some reason, though I've spoken to quite a few. Some don't seem to be able to explain it, and others just don't want to one way or the other...
In any case, I do like the way you draw your chars, and the detail you put into the pictures; I think you've done a decent job on this one, but don't let my words change your mind... you can always do better than you have, even when what you've done is pretty damn good. Never settle for anything. ^_^

If I might offer a suggestion; just consider how the teeth will mesh when the jaws are closed, and keep that in mind as you're drawing the open maw... the bits of skin to the corners could or could not be there, since DP is a mix of draconic and feline...
Also, I have never thought of dragons as purely reptilian; they are far too widespread in myth and legend (and in general) to be so, plus they tend to be hybridized with just about every other species.
So don't let yourself be drawn to much into trying to draw a reptilian maw; there's no reason a dragon, especially a dragon hybrid like DP, would look very much like that.
