RELEASED Hivewire Big Cat Has Begun!

My plan is to create the big cat base as a leopard/panther. This will be a great base in my view. From there we can create morphs for other bigger cats like the Cheetah, Jaguar, Lion, Tiger, but can also take it to similar shapes like the cougar and even smaller cats like ocelot and bobcat . And yes, down the line, this will be a great start for creating a short hair dog base and even a house cat.
This was the one I was thinking of...I've coloured the relevant words. It's the first post in this thread...

Been working on the face and nose today. Will continue working on it tomorrow and on the ears too. I was working on the Deer and Whisper for several days, but I'm back on the Big Cat now and it feels good to be doing so.

Looking great!!! Awesome sculpt on the nose !! He reads much more like a leopard now!!!

I might ask if you could elevate the brow ridge bump where the eyebrow goes just a tad more. You may have already done it and the lighting is what is playing tricks.

Looking fabulous Chris. I'm a huge Big Cat fan, so am definitely looking forward to putting this in my runtime.

Alright. I'll take a closer look at it tomorrow.

More progress today. Will add in face whiskers tomorrow. Geometry sheets added for upper eye lashes and 3 sheets in each ear for furry ears.

Whiskers, yes! :D I know I'm weird, but when I find that my cat has shed a whisker I save it. I just think they're pretty. ;)
