    Finished Cat Portrait

    Thanks everyone! Smkie: I apply the acrylic using an airbrush. Intresting enough though, I do use the airbrush to apply the acrylic like I'm putting down a wash of color. I normally use illustration board, but when I'm not going to use alot of different colors sometimes a thick piece of...

    Looking for some honest critiques...

    Great Job. I like your style. Heavy lines with different thicknesses can do alot for a drawing or painting. Some people don't realize that. The dog has a great expression. The drawing itself came out great. I'm not so sure about how you applied the color though. Maybe blending the colors...
