This looks really good! The shading is perfect and the colors in his fur are very realistic, as well as his eyes. The glistens correspond with the light source and his right ear shows light streaming in well. The thing that looks just a little odd is the distortion of his face. It looks a little flat and the way the right ear hooks perfectly on the outside of his cheek and then folds behind looks odd. Other than that, it looks nearly perfect! Especially the sense of reality augmented by all of the minor details like the light, colors, and whiskers.

Thankyou very much for taking the time to critique. I will check my source photo and check the points you have mentioned. The photo was overexposed which may contribute to the flatness. Pleased you like the overall effect.

Truly amazing work.
When I first looked on the thumbnail I thought it to be a photograph.
The light reflected in the eyes is stunning as well as the contrast of white fur on a dark background.
I don't usually critique deviations, but this is amazing...as is most of Astrid's work. Please follow! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="
10 out of 10! Keep the beautiful pieces coming! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h… " width="15" height="13" alt="
Also I'm so glad to see Vermeer immortalized in such an amazing fashion! (He truly is a beautiful creature!) All cats deserve it, and it warms my heart to see it done so well and with such love.
