redlined maine coon !

Postby spirittai1 » Mon Dec 04, 2017 6:54 pm

    ouo i love drawing maine coons jfdlfksfj
    also ignore the number of sessions i kept closing it by accident

    i think your cat looks good, all but the first of these are just things that would help make it look more realistic if you wanted it to !

    - i'd say the most important thing would be that the cat is a bit lopsided and 2-dimensional; the fur on the cheek should start a bit higher up and, since this cat is long-furred, the fur on the back of the neck should be visible from this angle. the eyes should also be shifted a bit, and, for a more realistic look, made to be a bit less round. i also believe that since this is a maine coon, the muzzle should be moved down a tad and the nose should be angled down more (maybe not as much as mine, i tend to exaggerate the shape of cats' noses).

    - edit !! forgot to add - you may want to accentuate the muzzle and particularly the bridge of the nose, as maine coons tend to have very distinct muzzles.

    - i think the ears are fine in the context of something stylized, but if you want to go for something more realistic i recommend making them a bit smaller. you could also get away with making the tufts a bit longer if you wanted to.

    - more fur !!! maine coons are extremely fluffy, which is especially noticeable around their necks and on their chest and belly. the fur behind the cheek and the fur on the neck should also flow into each other a bit more.

    - the cat's back and right leg should be visible from this angle.
