TRIED MY OLD STYLE LINEART
ughhh it was stressful. i HATE doing this kind of line art with a mouse, it's so hard to control and it's STRESSFUL

Another kitty i love though
really like squishy face cats

anyways, yeah! u v u i rly had fun with the colors and tried a little but of new stuff
let me know how you like it! If you think it's alright I might do both this and my other style more often o v o

dont know what else to say.. did this while trying to fight off an art block
once again should be doing commissions.

Before I start, I just want to say that I am no master at anatomy and I might be wrong on some things. I also want to say that I'm not trying to be mean or rude.

<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> Let's start off with the front paws. The only thing that is really bothering me is that they look very mountain lion-like instead of cat-like. Cats have small paws, but as I said before, the paws on Yellowfang almost look mountain lion-like ( prntscr.com/31dse5 ). Another thing I see wrong with the front paws is the angle that it goes into before it curves ( I don't think I worded that right, but it's this part : prntscr.com/31dtm2 ) it looks a bit awkward because it snaps in the it juts back out, overall it kind of looks... Broken? I also don't really get why there's a bump before the toe on the far right ( prntscr.com/31dx16 )
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> Onto the hinds. The roundish part of the hind ( prntscr.com/31dxmp ) looks kind of like a trapezoid. I'm not really sure how to explain this, but that part does have a slight angle to it, but the starting point of it is diagonal ( going to the left, like so : prntscr.com/31dy7r ). Then there's this part of the hind ( prntscr.com/31dz8v ) where it curves a bit and then goes back out. I don't really understand why it's doing that, but when this part ( prntscr.com/31dzmu ) connects to this part ( prntscr.com/31dzsf ), it keeps that slightly-curved angle to it as it becomes the leg, so it doesn't jut back out as it gets closer to the paw ( it sounds like I worded it wrong again, argh D: But it's basically like this : prntscr.com/31e0lx ) The toes on the hind paw ( and front paws ) also looks a bit strange because they kind of look like lightning bolts when they should be slightly roundish.
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> Moving on. The spine looks a bit awkward, I think it's because of the fur at the beginning ( prntscr.com/31e432 ). Is it supposed to look like she's afraid/her back is hunched? ( prntscr.com/31e4r5 )Usually, cat's spines/backs attach to the neck and go in a straightish line until the middle of the back, where it slightly goes up ( prntscr.com/31e5iv ).
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> Now, let's get to the scars. The only problem I see with them is that when it reaches that circular part of there eye, it just goes behind it when it should continue ( like this? prntscr.com/31e7l9 )
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> The only bad thing about the eyes are the pupils, they just need to be a bit bigger because it kind of looks like her pupils are very dilated.
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="210" title="Bullet; Red"/> The last thing I can see is this ( prntscr.com/31e9st ). It kind of looks like she has gills, but if this is the scene where she first meets Firestar, I can see where they're there.

<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="209" title="Bullet; Green"/> I think the background in this is very nice, along with the shading around her back/shoulders/etc... The yellow adds that pop of color to the picture since the bg is greenish blue.
<img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletgreen:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="209" title="Bullet; Green"/> The eyes have to be my favorite thing in this. They remind me of a sunset ^^
In the desc it says that this is your old style, but I've been seeing a few of these problems in your newer style, too. I think it's mostly just the anatomy of the back, paws, and hinds that need to be worked on ^^ Otherwise, it's very nice. You've improved ^^

Hopefully this didn't sound too harsh D:
