Description Retake on the older picture of my leucistic king cheetah character I recently finished. The term leucistic means an animal that has a lighter pelt than what is normal for it's species, but it is not an albino, hence the coloured eyes.

I modified the background to compliment the character and make the character pop, as well as using Photoshop's Auto levels to heighten the contrast on Rioxia. I like the results much better know and want to thank all the people who helped me out on this one.

I love cheetahs as much as you I think! I have a cheetah character that I draw often that I've dubbed Rioxia I'm so glad to have found a fellow cheetah lover!

The 3D "fluffiness", for lack of a better word, that is conveyed in this 2D work is amazing.

Well, they kept saying "brighten, brighten!" So... I brightened. I think it way be a little tad too much, but I think it is better than the last version which is scraps
