Description Hello!

I actually drew this in late December 06 early Jan 07. Finally finished it up tonight. And scanned it on my new scanner! The scanner reads sketches and structure lines so well, you can see the lines I used to make the basic outline... I should really have erased the ground line around his paws, but eh...

It's a tiger, drawn from a photograph still of wildlife. This is just a pencil exercise, and basically done to see if I could accurately copy the image from real life (or still life in this case). It doesn't look that great, but it doesn't look that bad either.

Original: [link]

Do note that I intentionally did not draw the testicles. I'm sure he's a nice male tiger, but... haha. ^__^;

I am actually kind of pleased with it. It's a nice change from all the anime/fantasy based scribble I keep uploading, and the stuff that dominates this gallery.

If you wanna crit it, I encourage you to chew chunks out of it. Go on, you know you wanna.

Looks pretty good to me!

The only critique I could really give you is that you've changed the perspective a bit on his body and face from what it was in the photo.
In your drawing you've got his body a bit more side-on to us, and his face pointing more towards us where as in the photo he was walking at a bit more of an angle, and looking in the direction he was walking rather than right at us.

But that's all just from comparing the drawing to the photo.
If I look at the drawing just by itself it looks quite nice.

Wow beautiful this is by far my favorite sketch in your gallery, you seem more relaxed with the pencil doing this style.

Crit? I guess the only thing would be the bottom mouth (the inner black part) - maybe make it more squared off rather than round.

Overall I think you really did an amazing job on this one <3 I love the look in his eyes.

I can't offer any crits since I'm terrible for it. Haven't done one in such a long time and I can't even remember my last attempt at realism like this. Hehe.

I think he came out really well. Just keep practicing.

Eee! Awesome-looking attempt at realism! ^^ I'm loving how his paws/claws came out.

I'm no good at drawing realistically, so I don't really have any critique to offer. Maybe you could have foreshortened his belly/leg area a little more to make it seem more like a 3/4 view.

Other than that, it looks great! Hooray for a new scanner! I missed your art. ^_^
