Artist's Comments

She came to me last night in my time of need, when I was most sad. A brillance of White fur and Electric Blazing blue markings. A rush of blue hair falls to one side of her face, shielding one of her bright eyes, the color yet unknown, but probably yellow.

her name hasn't been told to me, but I may just steel the name I had offered to a friend, cause I ended up likin' it, and call her that for awhile.

Iirena ...but we'll see

ooh n sorryw RuRu xD I just liked the name alot..didn't think I would >.>

x3 But here is a ref...I suck at tigers/cats but I wanted to give her a shot, and give a friend of mine an example..o.o

^-^ She made me smile

=^.^= You have a good thing going here! I like the overall design, particularly the swirl on the shoulder and the elongated ears.

If you'd like some advice as far as tigers/big cats in general... the legs are a bit thicker and the bodies slung lower to the ground. The bridge of the nose is thicker and more wedge-shaped, and the chin is longer, too, about the same length as the top part of the snout. And for tigers particularly, you cant forget the thick, round ruff of fur around the jaw.

Hope this helps!

omg thanks so much!! I know the legs kinda look funky cause I wasn't tryin' so much on them :giggle: especially that one back leg that looks a bit out of ..."Shape"

:X3: thanks so much for the advice!! I've never really drawn big cats, or cats at all, and I thought it fun to give it an attempt..I attempted not to do a long snouted being like I always try to do, it was complicated lol..get into the habit of one thing and it's hard to get your pencil to break it off, ya know?

But yus! Thanks a bunch, your comment helps alot, and it makes me grin with joy that someone has taken interest in it, and is willing to help.

Thanks a bunch! seriously! -squees- :hug:'s tight and stuffs you with cookies :D

<3 Awww, you're welcome! I thought I'd mention because, well... you draw them EXACTLY like I used to, and it took me a long time to learn different cuz nobody pointed out how I could fix it. ^^;

Yeah, I'm a fan of elongated figures generally... and it took me a while to figure out that it doesn't make cats prettier, it just makes them look like dogs. -rofl- But I still draw my people really long! I can't help it! Waaaaahhh!

It's okay, consider it as a birthday gift!

And what about the colors? You can throw together a color template really quickly if you like. Reason being, I don't want to get the colors wrong.

I can't draw peeps yet O-O but My art teacher is gonna help me >.> though my damn school didn't stick me in art...AGAIN! [snarl]

I plan to practice on the kitties, and use your advice to help me along.

She is very pretty and muscular in my head, and I knew I couldn't get it just right yut since I haven't actually drawn them before. but it also helps me get her partially down so she doesn't try to blend in with the rest of my thoughts.

x3 teehee How long did it take you to learn to draw people?
