Leopard gets her spots

Greetings, my fine feathered friend!

Here is a progress update on the snow leopard.  She finally has her spots! :)  I really like this effect of having the eyes in color and the rest of the drawing done in sepia tone.  The eyes really capture your attention.  I may just have to do a version like this instead of the graphite one I was planning.

The reference photo I'm using has a golden cast to it, so this lady's fur will be more tans and browns than grays and white.  Blogging about it won't get it done, so I had best be off to the drawing board! :)

Happy Flying!
