Beautiful Job! Great detail!

wow! perfect! (o)): (o)): (o)):

That looks great! You really did a good job with the colors and the shapes of the spots. It makes it a lot easier to see how good the sculpt really is, too. Very good work!

This is so beautiful Phillipp!! The spots are amazingly painted.

Fantastic
You are right, now we can see that the sculpt is very fine.

I suppose it took you a long time to make such a fine pattern, - they can`t do that in mass production at a reasonable price.
You did a great, great job (o)):

Thankyou also for the photoes of the real kitty, ohhhh, that is a beautyful cat !

Very nice work, I love it!!

Wow, beautiful amazing paintwork

A new wonderful repaint Philipp

Wow, this one is really beautiful Philipp! congratulations, that's wonderful jaguar figure now!!!!

thank you all.Very impressive animals.Was fun painting them.a friend of mine wasonce visiting a zoo in southamerica somewhere where theykept this subspecies.hey were hanging around in the water nearlyall day and he saidone could think of akindof bear on first sight.
Local people there are really afraid of them.
It was actually more work to paint the clouded leopard but it was also morerelaxed painting the jaguar.

Very very fine painting Philipp (o)): SAFARI Ltd has got excellent models poorly painted

what a magnificent piece you have made out of the figure! It's so much fun to see how poorly painted figures can be restored like real animals! The tree bark makes an interesting base for the cat.
This subspecies is huge! Is it common in zoos around the world?

thank you! No, at least european zoo jaguars are just lebelled "Panthera onca", as the're mixes of various subspecies, also to have mixed (black and regular) couples to show.

Gorgeous repaint! It looks so much better! (o)):

Great work,congrats! (o)): (o)): (o)):

Fantastic job on the repaint spotted coat! GREAT JOB! I know the nose was probably the toughest (The original just to wide). Again, nice job!

Philip, it's wonderful! As others said, now you can see it's a lovely sculpt. Your paint job deserves nothing less.

i'm going to start calling my cat a small-nosed sloppypainted whatever-cat!

thank you all!
Nice to read from you again, Carolynn

Philipp, excelent again! This cat is called onça pintada in Brazil. People of Pantanal has a mix of adoration and fear of this large cat. It doesn't surprise as long as this very massive cat can kill easily crocs and it is a extraordinarily beautiful animal.
Also humans keep a lot of cattle in Pantanal so the owners and keepers kill jaguars very often what is a shame. conservationists are starting turistic programs based in the interest of watching this wonderful animal and that's a hope to the creature.
You are very lucky being able of painting a jag with justice, mainly the Safari because it is the less interesting in terms of painting among those that are available. Great work congrats!
