Face shape. In order from left to right- pentagonal face, square face, circular face, and triangular face. I typically use the pentagon face for long hairs or fuller-faced cats. The square is mostly for kitty pets as it has a rounder, softer appearance. The circular face I use for most shot haired cats, and the triangular face is for characters with higher cheek bones or longer muzzles, such as Sphinx or Orientals. Eye shape: Oval, circular, angular, and titled. The oval shape is the most common eye shape; not much to explain. The rounded eye is more common in European breeds or cats with larger eyes such as Sphinx or Singapura. the Angular eye shape is the one I most often use for evil characters are cats who have a constant glare. The tilted eye is a more seductive shape, and I most often use this shape for female cats, especially black ones. Brows: common, shaped, spotted and defined. Common brows are slightly fuzzy towards the front, giving it more texture. I use shaped brows for my more attractive characters, much like filled in brows you would see on L'Oreal models (XD). Spotted brows are a fun variation, and I often use to give a little spice to my designs so not all of my cats look the same. The define brow, finally, is a more realistic style of brown, since real cats don't have eye brows. I usually use them in my realistic and stylized drawings.
