          Welcome to the studio Debra! Great to have you here. I love that you took the plunge while on holiday and with just a B pencil and a plastic eraser too. You’ve already got a lovely feel for the iris structure and those lashes are really delicate. The shading around the eyelid has a nice softness to it. You did really well with limited kit.… Read more

        • For somebody that don’t like cats IMHO you did a very good job especially on the fur. IMHO the eyes lack a little bit of expression. But I like it.

              Debra, if this is what happens when you *don’t put much effort into it*, I’d love to see what happens when you do. 😄Honestly, this turned out really well.

              • Hi Debra, not bad at all for a first attempt! Welcome to the community. 😉

                Personally, I’d say just keep practicing and work your way through the course. I’m sure Ali will be able to give you much better advice than I can, since I’m still a beginner myself. He’ll definitely be able to point you in the right direction and tell you what to focus…
