Really nicely done~
I can see you have studied all the muscles in detail – but I see a little problem with the position of the paws compared to the angle of the legs and the body.The legs seem to have another rotation angle than the feet-which is mostly visible in the musclegroups you drew in the legs. So is the right upperarm drawn from sideview, but the foot is in the same line as the body. The muscles at the backside of the upperarm (ulnaris lateralis and extensor digitorum lateralis) should be mainly visible while the ones at the frontside. Also looks the left paw a bit too much turned inwards and should the middle to not be visible. The left hindleg looks good but I have the feeling that the right hindleg is turned a bit too much the side. The ehh kuitspier- should cover the musclegroup at the frontside of the tibia maybe more. I think the muscles in the shoulders look good but I think the shoulderblade is a bit small for a clouded leopard – arboreal cats tend to have large triangular shaped shoulderblades. One last thing is that the lumbar vertebrae – it looks like if the lumbarvertebrae are much too narrow so that it looks like a breakpoint between the pelvis and back. You drew the shape of the pelvis nicely – I think the pelvis and the lumbar vertebral column look more in one eh geheel , in een wat meer geleidelijke overgang. Iig is da twat k typisch vind voor katachtigen tov hondachtigen.
But – besides these mierenneuk details – I have to say that the overall 3D effect and the posture looks good. It looks like the cat is action and looks concentrated. Also a thing I like on your work is how you manage to get the light well focussed – especially with subtle use of highlights and right placed shadows. Just go on and don’t hesitate to look very critical to my work as well – since I work for an research institution I learned to look critical at every detail – but I still tend to forget things ^^
