Description Okay. So it took me almost a year...on and off thanks to this stupid slump that I'm in. I was just too afraid to touch it to be honest. But here it is. The request piece for

I'm bummed about one thing, and it's my own fault so we may see a reworked version of this later where Cheetara has some actual hands. I did try to put her hands in either Kit's hair or Pumyra's hair, but try as I might It never looked right. So thus, I gave up and just put them behind their heads. A cop out I feel like, but I did try.

I'm discouraging criticism only because I know it's faults, and I may work more on it later. suggestions on the other hand, are welcome.

someday I might colored it. My art has been lagging so much that I'm not sure I even remember how to color it. But thank you very much.

I kind of want to color it. I think it would be fun. But I don't know if I will yet.

Painter! Color it funny.

You're making me want to open Painter again and see what I can do. I just have this learning curve thing where I'll get something new, not know how to use it so I'll put it away, then years later I'll grab it again and start it up. It's been a lot of years. XD

Painter is....weird. I don't know that i like it. O_o

That's why it's not reinstalled yet. New things tend to be a little weird for me though.

You can use mine on the desktop if you want. I have a file with your artwork anyway- I can show you where it is.

It's a really quick learning curve back though, I've noticed. So no worry.

Practice. That's all it is, practice. (Concepts and ideas are something else but we have no shortage of that. Actual drawing is just practice, nothing more.)

I do that a lot too- part of the reason I've never finished that Talon & Thistle picture. But we just gotta look at it like we can only make it better.

yes I do. I believe I was initially attracted to your work by the face shots of the three Thunder kitties. I wouldn't have asked you to do a pic of all three of them if I didn't.

wanna try and do another pic if you are up for it, and can spare a few days not a year?
I was thinking of doing the three ThunderCat ladies each in a wedding dress (maybe a bit like this one -- [link] ) modeling them off.

Elrondofthewoodship In reply to JonnySchweer [2008-03-30 04:21:48 +0000 UTC]

That would be a good way for me to try and get back into the swing. All three in the same dress? Or just one of them in the dress? Or all three in different dresses? I like that dress, it's really pretty.

JonnySchweer In reply to Elrondofthewoodship [2008-03-30 11:49:51 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking one wearing the plain dress (the one on the left in the pic), one with the dress that has some embroidery on the left side and the last wearing the same dress with embroidery on the right side.
So if you posed it as Cheetara, Wilykit, Pumyra it would have Cheetara with the left- embroidery dress, Wilykit with the plain dress and Pumyra with the right- embroidery dress.

Thanks for the compliment on the style of the dress. It was something I came up with a while ago and an artist friend, Atuki drew for me.

okay. I was wanting to draw a wedding dress that I have in my head too. So this all works out well. Alrighty. I'll get started asap.

*huggles* most welcome. I shall have to go check him out too!

Well I don't spose that you could easily o up a wedding dress you have in mind. At least then you can always say thast you have it done up.

Well you could do the pic of the Thunderkitties modeling off the wedding dresses and as another idea you could do a pic of a woman in the wedding dress you have in mind.

Elrondofthewoodship In reply to JonnySchweer [2008-04-03 17:51:22 +0000 UTC]

that's what i was going to do silly. Why would I put my random chic in her random wedding dress in the middle of the kitties? That wouldn't make much sense. XD That and the kitties would probably tear her apart. hehehehe.

No worries. I won't muck up your pic with my random people.

*laughs* Oh lord they'd totally kick her butt. Only she'd just heal up from it right away. XD But it would be entertaining.

Oh. BTW Pumyra and Wilykit are done. I just need to do Cheetara. I haven't had the time just yet. But I'm doing them a lot more loose, so they look happier and a little flow-y. I did Kit from a back angle, I thought it was kind of different and pretty.

maybe the four of them rolling around in the chibbi cloud of fighting, with only an occasional fist or foot coming out of it.

And I'd llove to see the progression of the pic so far. *chibbi me gives you some really sad kitty eyes* pa-lese?

Sure. But I may not be able to scan anything until Wednesday or Thursday which is when I'll probably have it done. or at least when I hope to have it done. hehe.

well I got cheetara done today despite the nasty cold. (it snowed!) when it gets cold my fingers hurt. But she looks all pretty. I didn't get to scan it in but i'll try to do that when I get home tomorrow since I get off early. I also got my chic with the wedding dress done as well. I felt accomplished. I hope you like it.
