Description
YAY FOR DRAWING WHEN I SHOULD TOTALLY BE DOING OTHER THINGS D:..sorry to everyone to whom I owe trades and FP dog commissions. It's been a long week, and when I'm swamped with work I tend to let drawings that I do for myself take precedence over art I do for other people. (you're lucky I do, by the way, because if I didn't, I'd go insane very quickly.)
Anyway. quick drawing/speedpaint of a new character. Meet Minx! I made her up for a lipsync exercise (starring her and Matsi the cat doing a scene from A Knight's Tale, I'll upload that when it's finished
) and I've grown rather fond of her. She's a Turkish Angora - which are immensely gorgeous cats, by the by - and personality-wise she's cool and refined but a bit of a tease when it comes to toms. I'm considering making her a RP character on Oak Hills or putting her up for adoption there, I really like her

She is really stunning!
I love how the background matches her eyes and also how it matches her fur colour.
It is just... amazing... really I am speechless.
I love it!!!

Ah oakhills, how I miss thee. She gorgeous all the way.

Whee, awesome. And you should totally RP her on OakHills, her personality sounds like loads of fun. *sparkles*
And the dainty Rottweiler is still up for grabs, I think I made Mocha different enough (prissy because she's rich, versus paranoid) that it would still be a hilarious fun character. =]
*muffinlove*

YAY! possibly. I'm still space-conscious as far as new characters are concerned, but I'd love to.
I've seen you play Mocha, and I think she's awesome already

Hehe, oh, that would be fun!
And I feel your pain on the multiple characters. I hope we get to speed up the posting, make it maybe once a day or something. =] Her sassiness is addictive. ^^

Hooray! At least you drew a cat in your works, I think the cat artworks are getting rare in DA whereas the lions *cough Disney TLK style cough* and dogs are far too common.
One question...can she get along with the dog characters when they are friendly with her?
Anyway, great art for the cat!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I actually think that dogs aren't that common, it's certain breeds of dog that are common. Mainly the herding breeds and the huskies/malamutes, I find. *coughcough*BALTO*cough* and hey, I do like lion art, it's just that so many people copy their style from TLK >>;
Of course she could! The dog/cat 'war' is a human fabrication and rather annoying at this point xD

how you achieve such a soft watercolor appearance on computer is beyond me

She looks... virtually identical to one of my own characters however

xD I'm pretty much the same way...I have a trade and a request to do...but just keep draw art for me instead, when really I shouldn't even be drawing at all, but doing schoolwork instead
