For someone who traces as much as Kique it can be difficult to draw such tricky angles. Yep, Leaf.exe stopped working there lol.

In Kique's defence tho, cats, especially big cats, can be very tricky to draw. Kique is a special case because he's a canine artists. Often you have canine artists attempting to draw cats, because what is the difference really? Well the thing is that except for being quadrupedal mammals, they have nothing in common. From their skeletal and muscle build to the way they move, everything is different about them. And as much as I despise Kique, when you're used to draw something in a certain way, it's really hard to drift from it, especially when the animals you're used to draw are so similar, yet so different.

Kique's prime mistake here comes from Feaf's chest. Cats, especially large cats have very deep, yet thin chest. A complete opposite to many breeds of dogs who have wide chests.

The angle Feaf is in is very tricky to draw. Her chest is deep and her front legs are bend back, making it look unprofessional and weird looking. Cats indeed do look strange in this angle, but what kill it here is 1) How wide her chest is and b) It's pushed too much to the front, like a dog's.

This is how Feaf's chest looks now while it should look more like this.

And this is the root of a mistake Kique did:

There's a couple more things that are so wrong with Feaf in this page. For a start, where the hell is her neck?? Also why is her shoulder located so high? To me it looks like Kique wanted to draw something like this:

A perked up shoulder with her head resting on it. Which by the way is not possible to do when you're a cat. A) your neck is too long for this b) your shoulder is not flexible enough to do this kind of movement because you ain't a human.

Seriously Kique, you have to stop drawing your feral animals in human poses, because that's one of the reasons why your anatomy is so wonky.

Another thing is, who the fuck punched Feaf and why is her jaw so malformed?

LOOK AT IT! WHY IS THAT CHIN SO SWOLLEN???

Framework selection paralyzes more enterprise architecture programs than almost anything else. TOGAF, Zachman, FEAF, a homegrown hybrid, teams spend months debating the choice as if picking the "right" framework will make everything else fall into place.

It won't.

And that belief is often the real problem.

Start with the Right Mental Model

A framework is a tool, like a wrench.

The wrench doesn't fix the engine. The mechanic does.

The most rigorous framework in the world, in untrained hands, produces an expensive binder full of diagrams that nobody uses. A modest framework in skilled hands can deliver meaningful business results.

That perspective takes the pressure off framework selection and shifts attention to the factors that actually determine success.

Three Questions That Actually Matter

Instead of asking, "Which framework is best?", ask:

1. What problem are we trying to solve?

Portfolio rationalization, AI readiness, merger integration and governance modernization are different challenges. Start with the business problem, not the framework brand.

2. Who needs to use the output?

If stakeholders won't read or act on the artifacts, additional rigor creates little value. Match the framework approach to the audience and decision-makers.

3. Do we have people who can successfully execute it?

This is the question organizations skip most often.

A framework only creates value when practitioners know how to apply it effectively. Without the right skills, even the best methodology becomes shelfware.

A Practical Example

Consider a 200-person software company trying to rationalize an application portfolio that has grown through acquisitions.

They may not need the most comprehensive or process-heavy framework available. They need a capability-based approach that they can realistically execute with their existing team and resources.

In this situation, a lightweight, fit-for-purpose framework paired with a skilled architect will typically outperform a sophisticated enterprise methodology that nobody internally can sustain.

By contrast, a federal agency operating under strict governance requirements may benefit from a more formal architecture framework.

Same question. Different answer.

Because the answer depends on the problem, the stakeholders and the organization's maturity, not on which framework has the strongest marketing.

Think Beyond the Framework

Successful architects view frameworks as scaffolding: useful, valuable and necessary in many situations, but not the building itself.

They remain tool-agnostic and focus on developing the capabilities required to model, analyze, govern and deliver change effectively.

Framework knowledge matters.

Practitioner capability matters more.

Key Takeaway

Choose a framework that aligns with your business objectives, stakeholder needs and organizational maturity.

Then stop optimizing the wrench and start training the mechanic.

The framework is the starting point.

The practice is what produces results.

EACOE helps architects develop practical, implementation-focused skills that work across TOGAF, FEAF, Zachman and hybrid enterprise architecture approaches. The goal is not framework loyalty. The goal is delivering measurable business outcomes and helping organizations Succeed Fast.
