Description
Last but nocht least - the leopards eye.I'm not really satisfied, but I can't work out what's making me feel that way.
-------------------
I want to apply for study path called Communication design. Therefore I have to create a portfolio containing artworks referring to special conceptual formulations.
My first topic is called “eyes”. I’m going to draw/paint different eyes with different techniques.
I really would appreciate savage criticism so that I’m prepared for the upcoming interview.

Ok then.
I don't know what that extra bit on the eyeball is, but it looks like you've coloured the eyelid in too, although it looks more like it should be there at all.
Also, even though the colour is wrong, which don't really matter, the iris is a lighter colour opposite the highlight. The light enters through the highlight and where it leaves the eyeball, it is slightly lighter.
Plus, learn to recognise a flash highlight compared to a natural highlight, and learn to paint a natural one.
I hope some of this helps.
If you have any questions, I'm only too happy to help, if I can.

Well I looked at a few pictures showing snowleopards, but I didn't use any of them as a reference. I just looked at them to get a feeling for the proportions etc.

waooowww!!!
amazing, it looks like the paintings on a book I've seen about animal paintings!
congratulation! if you'r not satisfied it's perhaps becouse his fur is only in grey scale, or parhaps it missing shadows...
but i could NEVER do this!
and if you'r not satisfied it's perhaps because... you're a true artist!

I think this is very well done; the fur texture is brilliant, the shading and highlights are very intact.
