Ok, so Kingman asked me if I could paint a picture of a "black cougar" like I did the jaguar. Thing is, there is no such thing as a "black cougar". I pondered.
Then I took a look at his fursona, which is a big feline, with an incomplete tuxedo cat pattern. I got an idea, so I went and grabbed a photo of a cougar, and a photo of a tuxedo cat. I used the first photo to get the reference lines drawn and the pattern in which to make the fur go, and the second pic to derive the color palette.
Now that I see this better, I notice the ears are a little wonky. I'll get better at this. I probably should have added more dark areas, too. I'm my own toughest critic, I know :-P
Anyway, to Kingman, hope you like this!
