Description Inspired by a great tutorial/progression I saw recently.

Um, concerning the print, I don't know how the quality is. Caveat emptor.

Also, my sig is handwritten. So the handwriting kind of stinks. Heh.

Thanks! It was really fun to do, and quite different from my usual.

Very beautiful! Good job on adding a concentration of details around the face. It really helps the viewer's eye go to what is important.

Thanks! I confess I did think of making the individual fur even though composition/logic told me not to. (The tutorial I had viewed had EVERY HAIR DRAWN, which blew my mind.)

Hey... ? I would love to see you do something similar with a Tiger. It's on my wishlist.

Heh, because it's you, I might actually do it. Much later, though...

The detail of the mane and the face, especially, is brilliant.

I don't know. When I'm just looking at the face, it almost feels like a toy... soft and all of that.

Interesting colour choices, too.

The excessive plushiness of the face is probably because the individual hair strokes are slightly too long (laziness). ^^

wow, you've gotten so much better with animals, how the hell did you go from awesome to more awesome? I don't know why, but I really like the fur around his eyes, nose and mouth, the detail is really nice
awesome.

Yay!!! Although the fur didn't really turn out exactly the way I wanted. Kind of BS-ed the direction of the fur because I couldn't really tell from the reference image.
