I think you did a pretty good job :3


(A hint though. Being an artist, for hobby or for work, people will give you hard criticisms without asking if you are okay with it. If you want to get better, hearing what people have to say, blunt or sugar coated, helps a lot, -and of course studying and practicing- even if sometimes it takes a blow to your ego :3 )

I have to admit this tiger really likes it, the asymmetry of the face (good thing) and dirty red colours really give it a western look to me. The eyes and mouth are what catches my attention, they are beautiful.

One of the most important part regarding a portraiture of a fursona with respect to focus are the eyes. So long as it is in focus, 'tis good.  :-3

As mentioned, the eyes really lend themselves to a very warm expression!  More than anything, I think it's the upturned gentleness of the eyebrows that make you look friendly.

Good stuff, for sure.  I would work on maybe shaping the chin a bit more naturally so that it looks less roundish, and maybe adding some detail in the neck area (shading where natural curves would be), but the face and indeed the entire thing looks quite good.  This is really your first try?  It looks great.

I don't think it's ever about being 'good' or not; you've done a great job here in a lot of ways, and you're only going to get better as you go.  Keep it up eh?  :)
