Description
After a rather long wait, the third of my Animal PAKs series is out. This time featuring big cats.

--

This took a good few months to make, I worked on it for an hour every few weeks, doing two or three at a time. Unlike my first two packs I used my original shading and recoloured it accordingly. This took a lot more time than I wanted, but it really paid off!

This is actually the fourth PAK I've done. I was working on an 'endangered animals' PAK but most of the animals were greys, blacks or whites and it was rather boring. I just kinda dumped it and moved onto this.

This pack contains six emotes, I was planning to do an Ocelot to bring it up to Eight, but I've just grown sick of the sight of this. Anyway;

Lioness and Lion
Made these first together. These were by far the easiest, because they didn't have as much spots in them (they still do, see the zoomed in below)

Cheetah
It was really hard to get the colours right on this, I'm still not entirely happy, but I really like the mouthal markings. Cheetahs are one of my favourite big cats because of it, although when I look at this I keep thinking it's a Fennec Fox.

Tiger
Definety the hardest to get right, not just because of the stripes, but the colours. It was really hard to get a decent orange colour made, then a good grey to match in shade. Then came the stripes.

Leopard
It's a bit dark, to make it clearer from the Cheetah. But I think I made it too dark, because the spots don't have enough zing. If I made the spots any darker, you couldn't make out the eyes, if I made the base lighter, it wouldn't look right. Beh.

Panther
I actually made this before the leopard, and it was on the panther that I actually made the spots. They are a shade darker, rather than a solid colour, so you can only really see them on the zoom in (see below). I think I made her too dark...

Snow Leopard
My favourite big cat, I couldn't resit. Actually the fastest one to make, probably because I'd already done everything with the leopard and the panther, so I had to add in some fur cheek markings to make it look a big different. Personally, I think it looks fatter.

To see all the animals at all their detail, look at this;

You may use this on and off dA without my permission, just don't re-upload, claim as your own, ect.
Feel free to use on your website/forum/emails but a link back is required if it will be public (if you're just posting it to a friend, that's fine). If you only use the odd animal every once in a while, no link back is needed.
