in love with the eyes im-
also squirreltooth is such a fun name

OKAY lets get into this
i feel like your style would fit a less realistic vibe so i'd suggest playing around more with unnatural patterns! when im doing tortoiseshells, i look up specifically spottedleaf designs for inspo FGHJSRDTFYGUH
i recommend coloring the lines (especially with darker cats!), and coloring inside the ears and the ear fur! If you are unsure of what color to use for the insides and ear fur, look up a reference photo of the pelt color! It's pretty different for each :)
if you did color the lines, i'd suggest using a color darker than the darkest color on the cat. If the base black that you used is the darkest it can go, i'd recommend lightening it up a bit! It may look a little grey, but you can use other colors than just black! here is a little guide if you'd like to take a look <( ̄︶ ̄)>
also im wondering what do you use to draw? mouse, tablet, etc? (no judging btw, i drew with mouse for 4 years AA) when drawing with a mouse, cranking up the stabilizer/smoothness always helped me with everything eek
playing around with the layout 's line color can also help the overall page look nicer since they wont look out of place next to your cat
when doing those little hairs on her back, i recommend 2 things, 1 make them longer, wavier and smoother, it'll give them a nicer look, and 2 make them the same color as her pelt instead of the lines

most of these are just suggestions ofc, but do take them into consideration when working on your next cat!
in love with the way you do your eyes, the use of color for them is just *chefs kiss*, but make sure you don't edge too close to the sectoral heterochromia zone unless the trait has been rolled!

looks great! i look forward to the next if you do decide to continue ٩(◕‿◕。)۶

I will definitely use your suggestions thank you so much!!! Iv just never drawn a tortoiseshell before and my ref was more of a striped one then the usual pelts (maybe I should have stuck with the more normal pelts) I should look for more inspiration from more unrealistic worrier cats drawings.
Oh I use my phone to draw! So it takes me forever and kills my battery T.T. but I ya I should crank up the smoothness more.
Thank you again! Your suggestions will really help!

I'm glad i could help!
And wow I dont see many people who draw on oekaki using their phone, but maybe I do and I just block out the possibility cause it doesn't work on my phone,, (´. .` ٥)
If you need to,, you may also take inspo from my own drawings! I dont mind too much as long as you make it your own :)

ALSO idk if you saw but a lovely person made us an actual generator! its linked where the silly little doc used to be! (still a wip but itll be done soon he said :)))
