Description Previous tutorial: 

It's tutorial time!

Continuing the streak from last month, here is the second new tutorial suggested by my supporters over on Patreon! This time, it was requested by the lovely , who asked how to draw cat heads!

Therefore, I used this tutorial to both explain and compare cat head anatomy with bigger cats!
I hope you find this tutorial helpful!

If you do, feel free to post the results in the comment section below! No credit required, I'm truly curious to see what you create with it!

I upload monthly tutorials ONE WEEK in advance on Patreon!

Fantastic.  This tutorial makes it look so simple to draw a cat's head.  (I know it's harder than it looks, though.)

This is a great tutorial, I love cats and yet I hadn't quite figured out how to get the ears lined up right. Your tut explains it all so clearly and beautifully.

This is useful. Do you have tips on getting features to look symmetrical in front view images? I have a hard time making the muzzle look the same on both sides so I usually just copy paste one side and flip it when I use a digital drawing program.

Oh wow, you do an amazing job with tutorials! The visuals are super clear and you explain the important stuff really well. I had a very easy time following this. And thank you by the way because I always struggled with that downward sloping of the cat nose-- I wasn't seeing it correctly, and the way you pointed things out here made it much easier to get where I was doing it wrong. The comparison with the canine face was brilliant, I wouldn't have thought to look for a "reference" of an animal I wasn't drawing. I stare at my doggo's cutieface all day and we haven't had a cat for a while so I didn't realize I was subconsciously trying to stick a dog's muzzle on a cat's head and just make it really short with a "Roman nose" and then couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. XD 

I feel like this means I should go get a cat... XD

This is really useful, especially when I still struggle with anatomy in general! I'll be sure to give it a try and (maybe) post my results ✨
