Description
This my friends, is a caracal.The anatomy is slightly off, and this one looks more sturdy in the legs then your typical caracal, however it does show the different look, in in my opinion, appeal to these cats, in my mind they are one of the more strange exotic cats, and I needed the practice and I think it turned out as one of my better pieces. I did have three or four references but they got lost back in google when I took a snack break (ate a handful of cherries and an orange) It was fun, that acacia tree isn't my favorite, nor the water, but it makes everything look better even if the land should be baren.
Time Taken: Roughly 3 1/2 hours
Program: GIMP
I really would like some feedback on this one! Thanks!

Hmm. I absolutely love your style and the piece in general! It's adorable and I think the mood is perfect. I do, however, think your caracal anatomy needs work, since the body looks lynx-like to me. I think it's just that the body isn't quite as elongated as it should be.

Yes, the anatomy isn't as well as I thought out, the legs and weight proportions are what I think mainly offsets it, but I don't think the length would we seen as such a big factor if only I had drawn it thinner.
Thank you, I do love the feedback

Really nice! Caracals are one of my favorite wildcats besides the serval, cougar, ocelot, and clouded leopard. :3

hi.. it's cute and I'm glad to see more rare cats... but... why is this in Animal Anatomy? I thought that group was for very technical drawings?

x-x crap, I didnt even realize it had been put there. me and my friend where both going on the computer last night when I finished it up, idk how it got accepted. but my guess is I stuck it in this group when picking for another I was in.
