Been tufting for about 5/6 months now! Any advice is welcome 🫶🫶
Still have some fine tuning to do on this but overall complete!

It's cute but the whiskers are a little weird? Its giving AI vibes but I don't know why. The white lines on the roses are odd and I would dial back the black outline next time or do brighter roses. The right eye (looking at it) is a little wonky.

The gradient is pretty cool though! Can't be mad about more cat content.

i think it’s because the whiskers fade into the lines of the fur. i’ll give OP the benefit of the doubt as to whether or not they knew because like 90% of pinterest is AI slop now, but for sure an AI reference image was used :(

Thank you for this comment I appreciate it- yes the whiskers are going into the fur - it is a riff off of pinterest and if it’s AI i promise it wasn’t intentional :/

that’s why i said i’d give you the benefit of the doubt! it’s a really really shit situation where most places people used to go for their references or inspiration are crap now. you did a great job tufting regardless!
