I love how you did the tabby markings, and the patchy white is so cute!

(Since u asked for feedback;)
You're doing a great job improving! I think maybe looking up real cats for reference might help you out a bit!
A few of your designs are just a tad too dark for what i would personally like (Forum/viewtopic.php?t=4333185) -- looking at real cats might help you to figure out what colors you should use and where specific markings/traits might usually be located! ^w^

Thank you! I will definitely adhere to that advice! I will be redoing my old entries soon ^^

I love the white!

I would suggest a bit more tappering with the tabby markings. while it's normal to have a few blunt edges, but most taper to be smaller at the ends of the darker markings. Also would like to mention, most tabby markings all go in a specific direction based on where they are located and what type of tabby (as Swish said look up some tabbies) As for the white, it feels like you have random faded spots? particularly around the shoulder. While this is cool looking, and I would love to see this on a cat, I don't think it's realistic. It may help to study genetics for more realistic looking cats.

Overall this kitty is really cute and I like them quite a bit.

For your other entries, though it be a bit off topic, I see you like to use the soft brush? I would like to suggest using it a little less. A lot of them are neat though! I really like your color choices and patterns for many of them.

I’m guilty of running to the soft brush 90% of the time.
Do you have any website recommendations for studying genetics? And thank you for your feedback! 💙

The Stars discord has some helpful links on there genetics tab pinned to the channel, but I read a lot of books when it came to learning genetics. In which I don't even remember the titles oops I also just tend to look up the coat colors and try to find out what causes them. The one I use the most is this chart. Looking up your favorite breed and what coat genetics they end up with and why is something I do a lot as well.
