Hello everyone! Welcome to a slideshow where I show you how I created my realistic tiger portrait. This is not intended to be a tutorial, though it can be used for study of anatomy and how fur works.

Materials Used: Printer paper and a mechanical pencil I found on the ground XD

Time Taken: I don't know... a few hours, maybe

Level (Beginner to expert, 1-5): 3.7

My Satisfaction: It didn't turn out the way I wanted, and the symmetry is messed up, but I'm proud of the fur. I'd say its okay!

Okay, it's started! I did the darkest part (eyes, mouth, nose) first. I also added construction lines.

Lil zoom in on the eyes for ya :)

I started on the muzzle! This part is actually pretty hard. 

I did the nose bridge and refined the shape of the muzzle. The shading is important here.

Up to the eyes now :D You have to pay attention to where the fur flows and which parts are lightest and darkest. 

Next, some stripes ^^ I think it's starting to look like a tiger now

I refined and darkened the muzzle, and added some more fur on the sides. 

Looking pretty :3 I added some more stripes

And it was at this point I realized I hated it. I did something wrong. But whatever XD, it's good enough, right?

Wait, I forgot to add whiskers... and the cheek fur looks off. 

Also, I swear it looks better in person.
