Speedpaint of a random cat. First digital realistic painting I've ever done.

Looks better as a thumbnail. :C But expect more of these because I had a lot of fun with this one.

whoa! I really thought that was a real cat, great work! if there was a hall of fame this should be on it and rated #1! what an awesome job! (if only i could draw like that!) I am just WOW right now! I really love the back round.. just a perfect back round for that scene!! I had to look twice just cause i really thought it was a real cat. I love the cats pose, I love the look of the whiskers and the fur, the ears are the perfect size, and I love the look of the collar. Perfect job, Perfect job, my friend!!!!

What do you think?

^{Holy cow, Emma! I saw this in my messages and I had to look twice because I thought it was a real cat! I just couldn't resist the urge to critique!

Anyway, there is not a thing about this I do not like about this piece. It's so tranquil, so peaceful, and it makes me feel just at ease by looking at this cat. You can almost feel how at ease she is. It's really hard to critique this because it's so beautiful. But there is one thing that I did notice that are more subjective than anything.

Personally, I think the collar is a little too low. Cats have pretty short necks compared to canines, and from where it's placed now, it looks like it might interfere with some frontal movements. Though, where it's placed now is not a huge problem, but moving it up just about a half inch next time would make it look a bit more natural!

Other than that, there is really no flaw I can pick out on this piece. This is really spectacular, Emma! I really, really love this, being the cat lover I am~ The background goes beautifully with the cat's fur, the lighting on the fur and whiskers is just... ahh! So beautiful and perfect! Can't stop staring at it!

You really are talented, Emma, and this piece is just STUNNING. I really hope you do some more realistic pieces soon, because this one is just gorgeous!}

awww... so cute and compleatly photo realistic!! the only thing is the front ear looks off... I love the way the backround flows. I admire your patience, I suck at digital drawing -.-

*thelunacy-fringe Feb 26, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Oh yeah I know about the ear. ;D It's too far back and needs rotated forward slightly.
Thanks so much!

Seriously this is just absolutaly breath taking, the amount of detail youve put in, the colouring, the shading, even the simplicity of the background just all works to make this stunning peice ;o;

You have an amasing talent Emma, seriously~
