Thank you! ^^ I was going for the realistic approach and my watchers agreed that the head was too small and the legs too long. As concerns the head... I just didn't like the look of his face

I took a closer look at the fourth and fifth ones after reading some of your last comments and comment replies, figured out the reason those two look so much stranger than the third one is because when you shrank the legs to make them shorter for some reason, then warped the head, well... the head is a bit bigger after you warped it than it was before, and his legs and the, uh... back half of the body? Like, his belly area? The area below the abdomen? Wazzat called? ... Whatever it is, you made that skinnier and his legs shorter and strangely positioned (the rear right leg almost doesn't look like it's attached to his body at all, lol), so his larger-than-before head looks really misproportioned compared to his smaller-than-before rest-of-his-body. It makes him look kind'a goofy, and a lot less 'noble' and 'cool' and whatnot that you seemed to capture perfectly in the third version. Also, no, I don't see the resemblance to primates you mentioned somewhere earlier, it definately looks feline to me. O_o (all of these observations are of the fifth and final version, of course, except when stated otherwise)

Ehm, sorry if that was a bit messy and rambly, lol.

I loved it up until you started changing the face. I really don't think you need to go that far. I think it is fine in the third panel. I think the tail was improved quite well though so great work on that.

I had to change the face coz the shape of the face and its perspective looked weird to me....
The anatomy in the third panel looks more like a primate than a feline don't you think? ^^'

Anyway, I'll be doing a better version of Nanaki.
Thank you so much for the constructive critique and compliment, I appreciate it ^^

Not really...I thought it looked great. It is clearly a lion's face, which is appropriate. I think it is spot on at that point.

Keep up the good work.
