Remember to keep shapes sharp and more triangular when you're building your cheetah- they are predators after all and are more dangerous than a house cat (for sure!). Sharper shapes give the impression of danger vs. round shapes for something more cuddlier. If you teak the main shapes of your cheetah- bulking out the body, arms and legs as opposed to making them long and lean- you can create any other of the big cats including lions, leopards, tigers, and cougars. All cats will have a long, curvy line of action (or spine line)- this gives them a slinky feline sensibility.
