That's pretty damn cool. In order to push it up to the next level I think it could do with some heavier shadowing under the chin, and maybe toward the back end of the body/back leg, that'll differentiate between body parts a bit more front leg/back leg, head/neckline/chest and make it look more 3 dimensional.

Aww, this is a very sweet drawing! I love the fluffy texture of the fur, and the spots look great. However, the left hind leg seems to be in an odd position to me; it looks a little bit unnatural and oddly bent.

The background looks better than the one where it is just plain white, but I think a background of grass or something similar would be more suitable. But the colour of the background here suits the cheetah's colouring nicely.

Overall, this is a lovely drawing for a first realism attempt!

onkelscrut [2009-10-16 08:19:26 +0000 UTC]

well, he looks cute and fuzzy - that's the main! He is a little bit plump, but may be he had a good dinner)
There is only one thing that confuses me - his mouth. I guess you have to mark mouth line more clear... without it he looks strange a little.
good work anyway)
and - this one is better than the picture with no background.
