Description As I'm using a new tablet, the lines aren't as "blocky" as before and the style has changed a bit. What do you think of this new chibi compared to the older ones?

***Also, it might be due to my new monitor as well, but colors on my old monitor seem washed out on this one and my laptop; what does it look like on yours? washed out, oversaturated or normal?

Tell me please!


Yet another folkloric face for MADARA XD;
He is a 'bakeneko/化け猫'. I guess the most common translation would be 'ghost cat', a cat who, under certain circumstances, gained supernatural abilities such as shapeshifting, creating will-o-wisps, or being able to devour anything from horses to poisons.

Though the story takes place in the Edo period, this cat wears the costume of the Heian courts, showing he's been around for a while. He usually doesn't have the cat ears and tail though... XD;

He usually wanders as a white cat with heterochromic eyes.
Personality: tsundere XD

Adorable! I love the hair style. It's so....different! Having the bell in his hair tied in at the front, instead of the back is what I like most. It's like a toy for him to play with, over being simple hair decor. x3

Also, the colors do appear abit saturated. And I know what you mean by them seeming more washed out on your own screen. My computer does something of the same to me.

Thank you! His hairstyle used to be more elaborate with rosaries, two bells, more loops, but then it got too distracting and festive XD;; I wanted to have an image of "belling the cat" that is in his story, but without putting it on a collar, but also have it huge XD; I think he also most definetly will use it for some kind of mischief as well.

Thanks also for feedback on display; its not much of a concern for chibis and such, but on more "serious" pieces, like commissions, its worrying me on how they will appear >_<. Hopefully, I'll figure it out soon.
Is the color saturation to a distracting or clashy point on your monitor?

The colors really aren't so bad. the green in his outfit looks a little bright, though the white distracts enough from it that it isn't so noticable, giving a decent balance.

If you were to seriously concider adjusting the color though, I would attempt making it darker or less vibrant.
