Description
Dang... I drew this on January eighteenth, but I have no scanner! So, I'm using Grandpa's scanner once again. The family is over here preparing for the whole "Superbowl Sunday" thing... The biggest bore I know!Anyway, it's a Cat Mer! I did him with Prismacolor pencils over the course of three days. One day to sketch and pen, and two to color. I'm pretty happy with him, but the mouth is bothering me... It doesn't line up with the cheekbones. Oh, well!

The lower paw looks weird? I sketched it about eighty times before just giving up and penning it. If it looks odd size-wise, it's because of the foreshortening I tried, so it was on purpose. But if it's the anatomy that's freaky, then I need to stare at a real cat paw.
Thanks for the input!

Hrm...looking at it again, I think it was the pose that struck me as a teensy bit off(or maybe just weird). Not a huge thing or anything, but just a little nitpick. I still think it's a great piece

^__^ I think this is what the commenting system is for. If something jumps out as awesome, bad, or just plain odd at first glance, then it's good to let the artist know. Like first impressions, they're very important. I enjoy hearing about the particulars which make people like or dislike my work.
And, I agree, that pose was a little weird.

Thank you for checking out my work! I appreciate it.

that is really good. i think if u are looking for advice to improve you could maybe add a bit more shading like on the claws and perhaps on things futher away, but thats the only thingi can think of! the colours are really good and i like the background and the wings are ace! great picture!

Again, lovely composition. Though, the face does look a bit awkward, but then again who am I to judge the structure of a cat mer? Anyways, lovely colours and the translucent effect on the wings is nicely rendered

This is such a fun, playful image!
I love the translucent effect of the wings.
I wouldn't worry about the mouth. It doesn't line up perfect, but that just adds a greater amount of feeling to the face.
Great use of color! You have a much better grasp of it than I do! The only suggestion I could make? Try adding some darker shadows. I think it would give the image more depth.
Keep up the good work! And thanks for sharing!

^__^ Yay! Thank you!
Darker shadows? People tell me that a lot (Sadly), but I never know WHERE. Where should I put some shadows?

You're art work makes me want to draw more cats and dragons. Maybe I'll re sketch my dragon Joker and put him up for all to see.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
^___^ Thanks! Dragons and cats make for some great combinations! I think you should do more emotion creatures. Cats and dragons are like... Pride. Power. ...Cuteness!

Thanks so much, particularly for the fav!

You see so many warm tones in shallow waters, I think the hot colours look great! Imagine this dude floating amongst a coral reef? Like the first commenter noted, the cheekbone thing is the only real mistake I can see too, and I doubt I would have noticed it if you didn't tell me!
I like the perspective, it's challenging putting the viewer so close to the subject, but it really adds a dynamism (sp?) to the work! I'll be faving this for sure. Over the few months I've seen your art, it's really improving fast. The coil of the tail and the little baubly things are divine! Enough gushing, gotta go!

Wow! Thank you! You comment as awesomely as you paint! Yeah, I have noticed how close my characters' eyes are to their ears, but my brain doesn't function correctly yet for me to fix it. For now, it's a style! And, thanks so much for the fav! That makes me so happy.
^___^ *happiness*

Wowee, happy Peachfuzzes are dancing throughout DA at this _very_ moment. Beware!
Um... so, in short, you're quite welcome fuzzy.

OMG! That is wonderful! I love it. I think this is the best piece I have ever seen from you. Way to go!
I love the movement of the piece and the colors you picked. It all compliments itself very well.

Woohoo! Hooray! Thanks so much for the awesome comment and the fav! ...It's the only thing I've drawn in a month.

You are very welcome. If that is the only thing you've done in a month then it was worth the wait.

Hmm... yeah the cheekbones and the mouth look a little odd... but I really like the picture overall. I love the shading and the semi-transparency.

Thanks! Darned mouth... I feel rather traitorous toward my poor Crayolas, though!
