This is the “center piece” of a set of 3 big cats done for a client. The other two were the Snow Leopard and the Pallas Cat.. I’m pretty sure they looked good on the wall (we’re separated by a couple of states)… as I have received no negatives from him.

hehe.. oh dear.. kinda like a spoiler that he saw the tutorial before the final piece eh? but still this is like so beautiful!! i love the ears, i love the eyes!! =D
One thing he did tell me was that the LIVE piece was so much better than the photos.. so that made up for him getting a preview..
Aaaah~ yea, i guessed that.. hehe.. it’s never really satisfying to see a piece on the monitor.. cannot beat the feeling of having the original piece right before your eyes.. he’s such a lucky guy to get the original! =D

How gorgeous! You have so much talent; it really amazes me. I hope you will add this to the Exotic Mammals and Endangered Species groups!
