Description
ITTSSS TABBYYY!!!New decora style, I drew the lineart whilst listening to some awesome happy hardcore, and coloured whilst listening to some club music and looking at DA's decora collection <3
Tabby dyes her hair all the time because it's white therefore easy to dye, and recently we've become a bit obsessed with candy blue+pink <33
I have that duck!! Its actually on a flourescent green string and the top unscrews and theres bubble stuff inside <33 I also own the cgloves <33 amd the necklaces 8D
Yay blue fuzzy legwarmers and blue tonails 8D Tabby had BIGGG paws!
Also if you were wondering 'bout the tail, it changes when i feel like it, from dragon to kitty. In her actual backgrouns story (I'shigar and whatnot) she has her dragon tail in her feral form, and she can choose which tail to morph when she shifts into her anthro form, but in her feral form it's always a dragon tail <3
(Notice those goggles?? I want some <333333)

Aww thankies, yeah i was scared i'd overdo it, decroa is actually quite hard to draw xD Thanks! Yeah initially the tippex was a mistake on a previous picture but looked ok, so i've started usuing it more and more!
Yeah haha, that would be why her hair is that colour xD
AH yes! So it is *the ear* i didn't notice that xD
Oh my a redline would be fantastic!! I'm awful at proportioning arms!

Haha sometimes the best inventions are just the best mistakes!
[link]
here's the redline! I ended up redlining the rest of the anatomy too cause otherwise the redlined arms didn't quite make sense with the rest of the image. I hope you can read my writing o-o;; Her torso was a bit thin & the proportions of the legs/lower torso also needed fixing a bit

Hey dude, she has white hair? Aww man, totally not fair! I would be rockin' this whole town if my hair was white. That's neat that she can dye her hair a gazillion different colors because its base hue is white. That's definitely what I would do if my hair was white. My hair is black though. I actually plan to (somehow? xD) get white highlights in my hair and then add a blue streak to one side. 8) When I get older, at least...
I love the shading in this. Very smooth and nicely done-- and traditionally, good grief! What is with you really good people at traditional stuff? I'm terrible at traditional artwork. I can only shade and whatnot really well in digital. Kudos to your lovely shading, gal!
Ah, the bold black outline is lovely and accentuates the image well. Her spazzness of colors makes me think sheβs actually dressed up to go do something, perhaps go to a party? But then again you said that youβre getting an obsession with candy blue and pink, eh? Whew. Bright colorsβ¦ somewhat eye-hurting, but thatβs just me. I like dark colorsβbut I think these look nice on her grayish and white fur.
You say you want those goggles, hmm? Did you theme them off of real-life attire or did you just make them up and want them? Theyβre an interesting set of colors. Andβ¦ are those horns on her head? I like the fact that youβve stuck a couple of thingamabobblitz on thereβ¦ Some sort of jewelry andβ¦ a glowstick, maybe?
Her gloves are pretty, I think. But what I like most about this design is maybe the earrings in her ears. She wears quite a few of them, huh? I always think thatβs interestingβI will never wear any piercings myself, so to see so many in others just fascinates me. (Yes, my ears arenβt pierced and I never plan to do so to them.)
The blue legwarmers look warm indeed. But they also kind of look itchy, donβt you think? Fur rubbing against one skin = friction = itchy, right? And blue toenails? Wow, thatβs very vibrant.
Her tail-shifting ability is rather neat, actually, Iβd say. If I could morph tails, Iβd definitely get on peopleβs nerves, haha. βdevious thoughts- I like her tail depicted in this image. Huge and fluffy! I bet it would make a nice pillow. Donβt you think so?
Herβ¦ handbag? Thing? Is also rather cute, but itβs dot-hands arenβt attached to the thing. How do they stay on? Thatβs intriguing. The pink flower! I want one of those for my own hair. <3
Ah, lovely work on this one, Tabbyspazzles. ^^ I think your anthropomorphic style is wonderful!

HahQ! Yeah that is the idea thats when poeple trade me or whatever and they ask what colours i'm just like... ANY! AH! Thats sounds awesome! i Dyed my hair red once and it stayed in for FOREVER!!!! So uh, won't try that one again!
Aww thankyou, i find it easier traditional, because its easier todo smooth lines.. Thankyou! <33
Thanks! I like to make my lineart different and orginal! HAha yeah i drew her in a decora style, hence all the cute accesories haha!! I love bright colours like loads! And yeah i frequently say that i can't be help responsible for blindness or seizures caused by my pictures!!
The goggles are made up 8D haha thanks <3 Yeah her horns are retractable and regrowable, somthing the scientists stuck on her, so i hand things on them!!
Aw thanks i have those exact gloves! And yeah i love piercings <33 I have 3 in one ear and 1 in the other <33 Why do you not want to?
Haha they're soft inside silly!! <3 And blue toenails just top it all off!!
Haha yeah she does in fact sleep on it! Yeah i like the idea too haha! It occurs because you can learn to anthro-shift when you pass through the veil, and because she has cat in her she was able to shift her tail too!
Thankyou so much Raxxie <33

xD Hahahhaaha. Can't you just wash hairdye out with something?
I don't like traditional as much as doing digital. But digital is hard to do when your freakin' mouse dies. xD (As mine did.)
Retraction and regrowth of the horns is pretty neat. I've never seen that used in horns before. I've seen it in claws, wings, other stuff, but not horns. (One of my own characters can even retract her tail.)
I don't want to pierce because... I just don't. -shrug- Just not for me, you know? (I find it pretty in other people, like in their ears, and I have a character who has a lip piercing, but I'd never want any of it.)
:3

Nah it was semi-perminant XD
Haha want to know a cheap tablet, the one i have is pretty cheap and is a lot bigger than you can get from wacom for the same price... and it's good for hard handed people that like to scribble ahhaha!
WHAT? Tail-retraction thats awesome. Tabby can shift her tail, it's somthing that happens when she gets the ability to shift into anthro (the veil gives you certain human radiations so they can all shift into anthro, which is useful because they can fit in as 'half breeds'
Hmmm odd, personally i wanted an extra two in one ear (3 in total) to do somthing with my body y'know, my first ones was kind of my mum's idea, i guess deciding to get them myself just proved to me that my body was mine C: Weird mind xD

Looking awesome as always ^^
How come your so good with your colours eh? You always get it spot on!

Thankies, yeah takes me AGESSSSSS to decide what colours haha!!

Oooh hmmhmmhmmm it looks like Tabby's ready for a rave or something. Woo! Check out this new design, what a delightful upgrade from your standard stuff.
This is a very cute design change, I do declare. I'm not into the scene-type stuff so I know nothing of this "decora" theme of hers, but it is lovely. The colors are vibrant and alive and it has a wide array of interesting add-ons. Wooo! It must be really fun to express sort of your "inner theme" like you did here. I ought to do something like this for an anthro NeoRibbontail... she'd probably end up looking like a monk or something.
-scribbles-
But anywhosies, this is a very lovely picture here. The only critique I could ever muster for you is that her paws and hands seem a little bit small. But beyond this it is quite attractive. I just love your style... the smooth, clean color laydown and the way you use the white to accentuate light. Very nice, Tabby. Good work!
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! Tabbys ALWAYS ready for a rave <3 Haha thankies, i really wanted to do somthing cute :3
Decora is a japanese street fashion, i'm no japan obseser, i just really like the colours haha! It is! And thats why i decided to make tabby to help me express my feeling through her, she's very close to me (well techincally she is me haha!) Most of my pictures are influenced by my emotions at the time <3
You should, it's a great way to vent feelings, and when you're sad look at it and you can feel the good feelings return! Haha yeah neo would look awesome, tell ya what, i'll draw a rave picture with neo sometime, she's never been drawn like that as such... haha it should be fun!!
Yeah i've never been good at hands, i really need to practice them... and now that you mention it.. yeah her paws do look a bit small, she does have large paws in her anthro form haha! I LOVE big paws <33
Thankyou! It's taken me ages to really find my style, i have so many doodles of experimentation, but now i've found it i'm having so much fun usuing it, it's great because you know it's somthing that will stay with you FOREVER, i think thats what makes it so special <33
π: 0 β©: 1
Aaah I see, thank you for clearing that up. I definitely agree in that it's a colorful style. In fact, it's absolutely flamboyant. Very attractive! 
You're most certainly welcome however, yes you are. I think that it's just great that you view Tabby as an avatar for your emotions and different personifications. Not a lot of people use their fursonas for that specific reason (it's all about "DRAW ME DRAW ME" nowadays), so you've got my commendations on that. Perhaps someday Tabby will have multiple incarnations, like a hardcore rave version and this decora version, and so on. Hehee... that would be REALLY neat to see. <3
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah really catches my eye, but i'm not too sure about the 50 million hair grips on your fringe, looks a bit odd.. 3 would be enough for me haha!
Aww thankies <33333333
Yeah she really helps me channel my emotions, and the poor people on my oekaki board end up with a bit of vent art during exam season D:
(Oh that remind me, you know how i was talking about chaos, well i've decided it does take a form, the form depends heavily on the personality of the person it inhabits, but also the host gains characterisics from the chaos, and i worked out a design for tabbys one
[link]
I do have a watercolour painting of the whole of a plain spirit so i can make a ref sometime, it's just a matter of finding the time... i think i'll upload this scribbl;e sometime so i can explain in more detail, i just wanted to give you a preview haha!)
People are now obsessive with fanart and stuff... some poeple think they need a fursona just because everyone else has one, and they're always wolves... it took me AGES to find out what Tabby's species was, and she was almost a gazelle, but i knew she had to be a carnivore to express my more violent side... people don't go on the journey it took me to find my fursona, thats why she means so much to me <33
Haha, Ribbs if i had more time you would be overflowed with pictures!! Tabby punk, rave, decora, baby, sassy, kandi kid etc etc
But school limits me, but when i get off school early after my GCSEs expect moar artz <33
π: 0 β©: 1
Aah yes there you go, that is how the best fursonas are found. NeoRibbontail I've had since 2004, and it took me two years before I adopted her as a personification of myself. You can't just throw together a design and say "lols my sona". Y'all have to delve and search yourself! Totally agreed!
Hey but say, that's a VERY awesome beastie right there. The very embodiment of chaos, you say? How interesting! It's been a while since you and I have talked about this chaos theory, so I've forgotten something: is Tabby the only one with the chaos inside her? I don't recall how that went...
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm glad you agree and did the same, thats why Neo isn't just 'some mutated dog' she actually fits into the characters role and it makes them all the more special <3 The worst is when i see people saying 'design me a fursona plz' i mean yeah sure design a character but not your fursona, you should have seen tabbys very first form, she was an undead anthro cat thing.. i'll have to make an 'evolution of fursona' thing 8D
Yup, thats the form chaos takes when 'alive' as a spirit, but it can take other forms as it is just a ball of energy...
Well, Tabby does have chaos inside her but isn't the only one, in each species there is one with chaos in them, sometimes they are shunned and outcasted, in some clans they are praised, as if you get hold of the chaos properly you can use it for good, the Keriti Clan welcome them because their personal god was made with chaos in her and had to fight it, but it made her more powerful, thats one of the reasons Keriti clan is one of the higher clans
(Each species or 'clan' have their personal god which took their from thousand of years ago which they worship, some of the gods had chaos in them and overcame it thats how they become higher clans, some gods used it for badness, and thats how their clan became enemies and were exciled to the scattered lands (basically a mass of islands scattered where the bad clans were forced to retreat to)
But yeah each clan has their personal god which they worship and the great entitiy (basically like your sasha's parent, who divided earth and I'shigar to rid I'shigar of the chaos, which ended up coming back -sigh-)
who they also worpship
-whoa-
LONNGGG talking sorryyy ilu if you read it all haha!!
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh heeheee...that's alright, as I enjoy nice, long stories.
-gigglesnorts-
So basically the deal with the chaos is that it's presence in only a select few people, and they're almost always shunned by society? How very sad! Sure chaos is at first dangerous and deadly, but... it could easily put its holders UP above all others. Talk about true power, huh?
π: 0 β©: 1
Sameee 8D I love our huge long chats 8DD
Yup, and the thing is the power comes from overcoming the chaos, not just having it in you <3
Ahhh i got a subby, i have no idea who gave it to me... buttt i do 8D And take a look at my stamps (i have both 'I 
π: 0 β©: 1
You got that right! I just hate it when I'm trying to start a nice, long conversation about a character or idea, and the other person doesn't reply. Guh... so frustrating.
But yes indeed I did see your wonderful new stamps. What a colorful collection, especially with the rave stamps. Yes please!
-dance dance-
π: 0 β©: 1
It is! I mean you've taken the time to wite about it they should at least reply!!
Aww thanks <3 I love those rave ones, colourful things make me so happy!!
AH!
Now theres an idea, i know someone with a huge collection like 200+ stamps -facepalm- I have in fact added like 4 new stamps just today, if that carries on i'll have over 50 in 10 days haha!!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeahlajljaa. But oh well, I'm totally fine with that. More free time for me!
Hahaa, nice that's the spirit! But what I meant was a totally separate journal, like this right here . It's never nice to have like fifty stamps in your shoutboard, right? :3

Haha |D
Woah! Nice journal there!! Love the stamps haha~ I think i already have 50... i'll put them at the bottom of the shoutboard haha |D
