Description
I guess I can only call it a Rough Reference sheet, is that it's probably the first thing I've ever drawn in years.
But Basically Yes! Meri, an anthro Black Tailmon/Gatomon who's actually Succubus, has a more comfy and cuddly form literally based off of the Cat Bee character from Poppy's Playtime.

I've used these videos as references to get the look down. The first video is all of the posters in the game and here are the links to each part of the video that features Cat Bee.
1. youtu.be/XKGbxbksjNk?t=18 (This one doesn't have the body stripe like her toy does, which almost made me forget that it even existed, but it helped gave me the idea to her make Meri's stripe look more like a Tabby/Tiger here)
2. youtu.be/XKGbxbksjNk?t=176 (That Hang in there poster one looks creepy to me because her black eyes are too big there and that kinda made me realized that the Poppy Playtime's characters are more or less based off of Dr. Seuss characters and where their "Nightmare Eyes/Creepy Faces" actually came from)
3. youtu.be/XKGbxbksjNk?t=242 (The flying one is the most cutest one of Cat Bee I've seen as it makes her chest fluff very unique and something that I tried to recreate with Meri's new body here)

The Second video is from a compliation of all the Voiced Lines of the Poppy Playtime characters. Cat Bee's poster in there is where I mostly based off of Meri's Cat Bee design from as well as why her look is more Toony compared to Cat Bee's toy form.

Speaking of voices here, Meri has her own voice which is different from Cat Bee's voice, but as a Succubus she can perfectly emulate that voice however she can. At the first head you see that's asking for a "Rescue Roleplay," Meri is actually using Cat Bee's voice in this one after she discovers the possibility that Cat Bee may not even be a prominent character in this series due to actually being dead before the player gets here, maybe... But playing off of my desire to save this character and how she eventually came to love this form, Cat Bee is probably one of the rarest forms she has that she wants to fully do a Roleplay in.

Anyway, this last video is shows off all the characters in the Poppy's Playtime game that is announced to appeared so far. I barely used this video to figure out Cat Bee's stripe placements and in hindsight, maybe I should in incorporate the shoulder and hip stripes to this form as well, what do you think?

One of the reasons I was so motivated to draw this form for her was because I wanted to commission a Transformation Sequence of Cat Bee and I believe that Meri is a perfect fit for this as she's more of a Succubus of Romance rather than Lust and I want to make her main "chibi anthro form" be a bit more clear to describe. I know I'm a writer and everything, it's just that I wasn't sure how I was going to describe "she's a cartoon anthro Cat Bee that's about 2 and a half feet tall, basically somewhat waist high, with paw-like hands and long tail" without getting said artist to make so many revisions to get it right. So I did it myself and I have to admit that I really enjoy drawing again.

Cat Bee's simplistic design surprisingly simplistic design help me draw more than I expected. Of course I wasn't able to do some of the more complicated poses like having her lay on my stomach and having her paw hands reach my shoulders for example but I think I was close enough. Speaking of close enough, I wanted her to look fluffy even in full anthro form, which I just realized I never did Fur only Anthros before and Meri's Cat Bee form was the closest I got and she was supposed to be fluffy with her paw hands slightly more human looking rather than the being thick and paw-like. After I did the hugging chest shot on the right, I realized I never drew her looking to the side so I decided to take my shot at a more anthro version of Meri's Cat Bee form to show what she would look like to the side. However, I think I jump ahead a little too soon on that. I think I might ask Marcus to do her anthro form one day, after the series is done maybe.

Anyway, let's talk about Meri's new look and abilities. Let's start with the abilities:
Abilities:
a. Like any Cartoon bee like character, using singers isn't fatal to their users and could be used multiple times.
b. One of the abilities of Succubi, is being able to control whether or not their nails, or in Meri's case, claws and stingers, to cause and actually cut things to the fullest extent of their abilities. Though the only kind of scratching that Meri is going to be using in this form is the kind that alleviates itching rather than causing harm.
c. Meri's wings are silent when she flies, even though they flap just as fast as any other bee. That's because she put the buzzing aspect of her abilities to something else.
d. The buzzing will only happen when Meri purrs long enough in that form and when she does, she vibrates like a massage chair, which pairs quite well with Meri's paw pads to use to relax people.
e. Meri's paw pads, especially her heart shape ones are the softest and pillowy ones she ever has, even softer than her Tailmon forms. They are very great for massaging which is what she plans to do with this form when cuddling. She likes using her paw hands knead and massage any part of the body.
f. Her fur is also softer and fluffier which plays into the toy aspect of her Cat Bee form even though she takes on the looks of a Toon. Thanks to her chest fluff, Meri would use this form for comfortable hugs and cuddles.
g. Thanks to my imagination, she'll eventually have healing magic powers when doing anything that brings comfort to people, such as hugs and massages

Now about her Looks which should be quick to describe.
Design Aspects:
a. The most important aspect is her tail. A Cat Bee's tail shouldn't be as long as it is shown here but because I like long tails that are especially prehensile (able to move and shape them however they please), Meri's demonic spade at the end of tail has revealed itself. But rather than changing the tip of the tail to reflect the shape like most other forms, her spade appears as a hard shaped stinger that is hard to retract like most other Cartoon Bee Stingers.
b. Meri's paw hands have a sharp end to indicate her claws, while they are not completely out, the end of each of her fingers and thumb has a little bit of it coming out of it. If she does unsheathe them, which is rare by the way, they'll be black. The current sharp ends are only use for therapeutic massage like purposes.
c. Her wings and antenna have also have sharper looking ends and corner to reflect her demonic wings and horns a little. Her antenna ends in a cone-like fashion and while her wings just have a bit of a sharp corner.
d. Her lips are the thickest in this form, but just like a certain other cat Succubus, that'll be introduce much later in the series, it's basically not that noticeable until you can feel them when she kisses you. Meri feels like she can compete with this other Succubus now that she has this form.
e. This form is the most cartoony Meri has taken on, so now she can achieve the Roger Rabbit Effect when she's in the mood. So for any future drawings of her that want to showcase this more cartoony aspect, just simply make her outlines thicker than every other character.
f. I forgot to mention the Earrings she always wear, no matter what form she takes her earring never changes. The only thing that may change is the change with her overall size.
g. Even in full human sized anthro mode, made as way for her feet to reach mines, she's very fluffy. Something that I think I failed to do when drawing her.

Okay I think that's it enough for now. I kinda want to post this before something else happens and I lose everything I've written over the last 2 hours. I'm just kind of happy that I made a bit more Cat Bee fan art and I'm glad that character helped me expand on mine for a bit.
