Artist's Comments

Meet Sizwe, hes a Cheetah so I thought an african name would suit him! =D
he was major fun to colour and shade, the spots were alot easier to do compared to the stripes on Shaan! ;)
the background is colour referenced as I wanted to get the colours right for an african background...im pretty happy overall..one thing I did have problems with was getting the pupils in the eyes to look like they were both looking at the same 'thing'...he looked a bit boss-eyed for a bit untill I eventually got it to look ok =D took ages tho!!

big cats are so fun to do on photoshop im gonna be doing more! will still be doing wolves of course tho!! =D hope you like him!

He has a simmilar body to that of the dogs in 101 Dalmations. I love how the body is realistic and the expression is really cartoonie.

He's brilliant, you got the cheetah anatomy wonderfully and his stern expression is just ace. Not to mention the lovely background.

Wonderful work as always. I especially love the cartoon look, the overly skinny waist and long tail give it a look similar to cartoons prior the mid 90's.

Great job on the background too. At first in the small view I thought it was a photo.
