It's lovely so far. Will it be a leopard? I adore how you manage to make the fur look so soft and furry. Makes me want to pet it.  And how awesome that there's the underside of a foot. Kitty feet are the best feet!

Yes, it's a snow leopard :')
I love fluffy creatures, and when ever I see one of these I think 'omg it's so fluffy and adorable ' so I always try to draw them as fluffy as I can. Sometimes I overdo it... For this one, I think I will try to make the fur look more brittle as I go along, to fit the title. The idea is that snow leopards are creatures of the snow, ones who are born and will return to the frost. So their fur should probably look somewhat spiky xD

And yes, kitty feet rule

Beautiful snow leopart. Maybe some ice chips or snow residue on the fur would do the title justice. I fully understand the temptation of drawing them too soft and fluffy! Kitty fluff!!

That's actually a great idea! Thank you so much, I'm definitely going to use it in my next piece.
I was thinking of doing another snow leopard, this time snarling, and titling it 'Frostbite'. I think the ice chips would go along well with this scenario ^^
Cats are amazing no matter the species.... what species is your favorite, by the way?

You're welcome, I'm glad if I could help!  

And with cats, my favourite species is actually domestic cats. All of them, though I have a particularly soft spot for Tonkinese cats, because I like their build and face shape combined with the Siamese colouring. Back in the day when I was a kid we had a Tonkinese (without knowing, he was just an 'accident' that happened at a breeder's who bred Siamese and Burmese cats and ended up with a litter of unplanned mixed race kittens ).  Bengal cats are also really handsome. I really like the domestic cats, simply because they're the cats you can touch and cuddle and have sleeping in your bed at night.  

As far as big cats go, I really like the muscular build and fur pattern and face of jaguars. 

Which species is your favourite?

Ah, I understand the love for domestic cats. I have one myself, and it is fun to play with him and pet him :3 I love Main Coons, but Bengals are great too - I've always loved their coats, they remind me of wild cats a lot. I'm not really fond of Tonkinise and Siamese breeds, but I love contrast they have.

I used to confuse Jaguars with Leopards when I was little, but now I know that Leopards are smaller and have a leaner build, as well as a narrower face. I love the Jaguar car symbol xD

I think I like Tigers and Snow Leopards equally. Snow Leopards are fluffy and beautiful, while tigers are powerful and wild. I also  like that snow leopards are gray and white, which means I can draw them with charcoal and say that no, it's technically not monochrome because I don't like to draw in color.
