Description  

As requested by JEVVEL (nah, requests aren't open, I just agreed that a tabby tutorial would be a good idea)

S'more examples of what you can do with tabbies:    (<-- Actually, on this one, Dancingfire is breaking my "white covers all" rule. My excuse is that that was before I did this tut., and also uh i had another reason but atm i cannot recall it just wait i'll remember)

you can ask to buy any of the designs in this tutorial
the mackerel, spotted tabby, and the second tabby-and-white now belong to Vritra-Rising

your second example of tabby + white (the light brown one) is a perfect example of what a classic tabby should look like, with the swirl on the body and everything

This was REALLY helpful, but I'm trying to draw a tabby that is sitting now, and I just don't know how to do the stripes in this position...

This is very useful!

It does bother me quite a bit when I see people draw tabbies that are dark with light stripes. It just doesn't happen in real life!

OH MY GOSH THIS IS ACTUALLY PERFECT ;o;
I've always been really bad with tabby stripes, I've just never really known where to place the stripes (especially on the faces) or how to curve them/how long the stripes should be
but this explains it and shows it so well!!
thanks for making this! ;v;
