    Wake Up

    I'm working on a new pencil drawing. This is a screenshot of my preliminary sketch. I traced just the most basic outline to get the proportions right; the rest will be drawn freehand. Enjoy!

    And here's my start, roughly blocking in the head of the first tiger. I have a long way to go!

    It's been a while since I worked on this, so here's a little update. I'm having fun making this tiger cuter and fuzzier than the original reference photo, though I have a long way to go on the fur and developing the form. I'm not trying to duplicate the stripes exactly because I think it gives the drawing more personality to caricaturize it a little bit, and emphasize the young age and playfulness of the tiger. I've only just begun to develop the fur along his back and shoulder, so that's not final yet. Not sure how I will portray his "victim" yet. Enjoy!

    Finished?

    This looks great, and very detailed too. Did you manage to revisit it and finish?
