Description This is an oldy. As an afterthought I think adding wings to a cheetah would totally wreck its ability to run fast. It would have to wobble along all uncoordinated whilst glaring at all the other animals laughing at it.
Now that I look back on it, the structure looks a bit like Snowy's "N'Grea." Check out her art, she's AMAZING and has this whole storyline going on with her characters.
Things I've learnt since this picture:
Colours should become less intense the further away they get to give the impression of depth,
Areas of strong contrast come forward (my rocks are odd),
Don't draw wings that look like cardboard (*embarrassed* yeah they uh do here, sorry),
And last but definately not least -don't rush things (meh I'm a serial offender of that one) .
Chris was at me to upload this one.

Even with the negatives you've pointed out in your picture (I would have critiqued it the same way...it doesn't seem as clean as your other work), I think it's still a wonderful characture.
Such an emotionally calming picture. I wish to pet. *pets*
