Specify errors, it is necessary for me for the further correction.
Thanks.

the ears are set to high. Your eye to nose messurment will be the same as your ear height.  In other words you need to set your ears deeper in the head. This is the same with canines and cats. Hope this helps

It looks like the bottom jaw is too far forward. Fluff the fur on the whole cat.

[ElkinsTaxidermy]

You need more clay in the eyebrow region.

[museum man]

same as above, it has an underbite and a good fluffing with the air compressor would make a world of difference

 A cat's upper canines will not show unless it's upper lip is drawn up to expose them. Your pallete is set too low. The rear of the pallete is even lower, thus the "underbite" Quite attractive on werewolves, lynx, not so much.

As far as the upper canines showing ...
Sometimes they don't ...


Sometimes they do ...


The thing I first noticed besides the ear placement on the head, is in your skin adjustment ... or lack of it.  The ears do need to be further in on the head ... you have the ear openings too far above the top of the head.  



Also, the head skin needed to come forward and up on the head, to lift the facial ruffs further up closer to the ears.  The lower lip skin is not only too thick, but too far away from the lower incisors ... it is normally held pretty tight against the gums there.  Just study the reference photos.


Keep studying Nature ...

Like Phil said...and that live cat pic shows the lips lifted. Phil do you do werewolves too now?

In my opinion, there are a few things that you could improve on with your next one. I hope the pictures help show what I mean.

1.   Starting with the ears, they are set slightly too high, but the main thing is that they should be tilted forward and rotated inward to bring the inside corners in line with the front corner of the eyes and the wing of the nostril, (red line). Unless you were trying to rotate them back, in which case they would lay down to the sides somewhat, as apposed to sticking straight up.

2.   The eyes are also set at too high of an angle, if you tilt them down and just slightly out to the sides, then you can really get the eyes to focus on the viewer.

3.   When you set the jawsets it would greatly help you to have a skull on hand. Compare where the teeth sit in relation to the rest of the head. In your case it is set too low and back on the top of the mouth. the bottom of the jawset looks good in relation to the jaw, but if you get the top part set in the right spot then you just have to match the lower jaw, making your work easier. When you bring those molars up, it will also help to move the corner of the mouth up where it belongs, (red line)


This is just my opinion and what I would do, but I am not an expert and some may even disagree. I hope it helps you on your next one, you are certainly getting better, and use LOTS of reference to check these things on live cats for yourself.

Thanks all for the help.
