First time trying to make a cat. I'm not happy with the tail and there's no details.

I used yours as a sample, my first cat too. Thanks for the opportunity.
I tried to improve on yours, first I had to figure out how the heck does one draw a cat.
From there the plan was to create one a little bigger.

From what I've done I set up my color palette with a few shades light to dark for grey.
I used four shades and an extra for AA, which im not too certain of.
From what I can see the larger the creature the more detail one can put in, as long as you know what detail can be added.

I would definitely recommend you check the fox thread on the featured tab. It shows a lot of concepts which could also be applied to a cat.
