Description
Join Africa-comic group!Okay, this picture has been roaming the internetz for a while, I drew it a couple weeks ago (as you can see from my signature, still indicating March '13) and uploaded it on Facebook first, but I liked it and thought I'd upload it here, too
When I submitted the test page for Africa I received loads of useful pieces of advice, one in particular, which many of you suggested, was to make Africa and Chui more different, because they looked too much alike.
Well, I've been working on that ever since. Can you tell Africa and Chui apart in this picture?
Please be frank, I don't get offended if you say you don't! XD It's very important for me that readers manage to distinguish characters, especially if the two main characters are so similar.
I also added a like of rounded spots on Africa's pelt, since I received the suggestion to vary her spot pattern a bit. How do you like it? ^_^
Once again, thank you SO much for your constant support and critique! It helps me a lot
And once again... again XD
Africa and Chui are LEOPARDS. Not Cheetahs. Not Jaguars.
I know that cheetahs aren't this bulky. Because these two AREN'T cheetahs! XD

Ah, they are both African leopards
It's hard to tell the gender of a leopard in real life too, since males and females only differ in size

Hoho XDD Nope nope, Chui is not gay :'D And he's actually not interested in Africa either, they hate each other XD He just likes to tease her and call her names :3

XD He's an awesome fake flirter XD
But he knows that Africa is weaker than him, so he does as he pleases on her territory (stealing hares, coming and going whenever he wants) XD

Yes, even without the different eye colors I could tell them apart. Africa is on the left!

Also, because I did read some other comments, they clearly look like leopards to me! but i know that cheetah's chests are larger compared to their waists because of their huge lung capacity, and leopards are more uniform. It makes them look more fluid when moving, like how you have drawn them, their motion looks very smooth. Cheetahs look more stiff.

Aww thanks a lot for remarking that
Yeah, Cheetahs are pretty much caricature animals, they almost look like racing hounds with spotted pelts

But clearly not everyone watches/watched as much animal planet (at least the shows about actual wildlife) as much as you or me!
I saw the info sheet you posted too, you have got the big cats down!

Oh thanks a lot, truly^^
