Description WOO after a long absence I am back. The reason for the long no-art break was that I moved to a new place and the first week was really stressful.

I really love ideas that come to your mind and are just BOOM, this is an awesome unique idea, something no one ever has done before. Not fighting Warrior Cats or playing kitties, but something alternative.

So this cat actually is a firefly on the inside. Idk, think up a story yourself

I loved drawing the skeleton. I really should do that more often, bones are fun to draw


This idea just randomly came to my mind and since I really wanted to draw something eerie and spooky, why not?
Also I really love the contrast of bright yellow on dark blue

I painted this in Photoshop CS4 with a wacom tablet. And yes, I am studying Animation & Game Design now. So expect some university work soon ;D

This is probably one of my favorite works of yours to date because it's so different and the lighting is amazing. I really do like the glow in the rib area and how the surrounding fur has the same warm light to it. The details look great.

IN ALL MY YEARS.
This is so... SO ORIGINAL, SO MANY THINGS. The bones look so gorgeous, and I agree that the yellow and blues contrast well against each other :'D You did a really good job with the water too. I love how the shine is simple, it makes it look more realistic and pretty I love the pose too, and how easy it is to interpret your own story into this. Man, bravo! Incredible, fantastical work, girly ^^

Oh my god NORS.
Those BONES.
They're so... Wow, just so... Real ;_; So lifelike, with the colours, texture, shape and everything. I love the idea of this, and how ominous and eerie it is. I love that feeling too, when you just have a random splurge of ideas which are unique and really fun to draw!! Your imagination definitely didn't disappoint here! :'D Keep it up bro, I expect EPIC things from your time in university >D
