It's a pleasure to see some of the lesser known felids getting "face time" in anthro art. I love her lithe form, the gorgeous colouration, and her sweet (mischievous?) smile. The colours in the background add a lot to the vibrant feeling without being overpowering. In short, I love it!

This is really gorgeous. I love how saturated the colours are, and the scenery is really pretty ^^

Absolutely stunning work! I love the soft colouring and beautiful style!
Also a group of us went over to Borneo in February and saw some students who were studying the big cats in Borneo, so I'm so glad to hear that the Bornean Clouded Leopard has now been found!

Oh I would love to go to Borneo! One of the few remaining places that are not completely charted, if I understand correctly

No way! IΒ΄ve seen works from you before but this one tops them all by far! What can I say? I could sing odes for all and each detail in this picture. From now on youΒ΄re not going to do anything without me knowing it! Great work!

Wow, beautiful. The coloration is so rich and creamy, looks awesome! The shading is fabulous, and like I said, everything looks really rich and with wonderful detailing. Great work on her anatomy, and the gorgeous yet very tasteful pose she's in. I particularly like the structure of her face. It's realistic but also expressive, so she seems to have more personality and life.

I'm enamored of your skills with water! The little dabs and strokes give the water such a realistic yet pretty, painterly look. I also love how you do rocks. So smooth and perfect, but they're not "rock blobs" at all, which is easy to do when portraying smooth rocks in artwork. Must be your amazing shading.

The only thing that looks strange to me is her right foot. The foreshortening on the leg looks perfect, but the foot seems too small. It's the same size as the other foot in the drawing, but is much closer according to the pose and it seems it should be a little bigger. It may be the angle but it still seems too tiny. Minor detail, at any rate.

Everything about this rules. How about I stop jabbering and just already?

Wow thanks so much for the amazing comment! I was really worried about the water when it came time to do it, I just couldn't get it right so I decided to stylize it and just have fun with all the splashing and whatnot. Seems it turned out quite well ^.^
Thanks for the critique too, I don't get many of those so they are always very much appreciated!

Hey, I saw your art in the AC art show! And I was like, HEY, I know that person! I never really got a chance to stop by and give a good look, but what I saw was great, and I hope you did well!
