Description
Yeah, it's not what I was supposed to be working on but this definitely helped me get back into drawing mood.For our online roleplaying group. To the left, Lady Neko, an enigmatic totem spirit who accompanies - to the right - Sephot, one of the last shapechanging Kyphur cats. Sephot's fur is normally deepest black, no highlights, nothing... I took some liberties and it still looks unfinished. xD

Sephot "Seeks with patience" belongs to Raku

Good to hear that, thanks. I'm slightly paranoid that other WoD players might begin to feel spammed by me; on the other hand, I don't upload that often. ^^

Dude I LOVE the way you draw domestic cats! They're so sleek and long-legged and gorgeous! And the eyes are so gorgeous and shiny, too! And I LOVE the way you did that fallen pillar! Your rocks look so nice and dirty and.... well.. rocky xD. As an enigmatic totem spirit, is Lady Neko a good enigma, or a bad one? Probably the latter, though. Black cats rarely mean good things <___<

Thanks! Well she's ... a bit of both really. She's on the good side but rather unafraid to learn dark secrets and use slightly corrupted wisdom as far as I know. The fork-tailed cats are generally known as demons of bad fortune. But per se, she's a good character with good motivation.

Arr, laΓ dich da nid zu viel von mir beeiflussen. Meine Version basiert wiederum auf der von Howl, siehe Credits zu dem Bild... und ich hab auch ma eine in nicht-schwarz gemacht... aber ich wΓΌrds schade finden wenn ich jemandes Fantasie dadurch umkanalisierte.

MisterChGrey In reply to Tacimur [2010-07-11 08:56:14 +0000 UTC]
Mir reicht die bloΓe Info das sie im Prinzip schwarze Katzen sind. Ich hab nie sonderlich groΓ nach RL Bildern gesucht, von daher war das so ein teritΓ€res InfostΓΌck.
Aber im Moment bin ich WoD technisch sehr ruhig. Mein aktuelles RPG Steckenpferd ist Eclipse Phase. Da gibts Roboter und Pilzaliens.

Wouldn't fully black have brilliant white highlights, since the darker the color, the clearer the reflection? (Like a mirror, kind of.) Or is "deepest black" a term I don't know *feels silly*

Tacimur In reply to AkaTsukiSakuya [2010-07-10 22:06:57 +0000 UTC]
It's something supernatural. It's said in the soure material that the Bubasti are just light-absorbing black, without any highlight or gloss. It becomes worse each time they resort to dark magic.

Okies! Worse? So they're losing life as well as color?

Tacimur In reply to AkaTsukiSakuya [2010-07-10 22:23:35 +0000 UTC]
They don't have too much life to lose, to begin with. They're basically only surviving because of their relation with some unpleasant powers. Just temporarily of course ... but that's been some 3000 years by now. "I can quit any time." There are some techniques that raise their "taint" level and also turn their pelts a darker shade of black for all to see.
Check out jen-kollic's comments under this pic, she gave a nice example of it.

Yep, it's Werewolf The Apocalypse, which is in turn a part of the (old) World of Darkness system by White Wolf Publishing. It's classic pen and paper roleplay, but there are many online groups. ^^

Nuja, meine Meinung kennst du glaub ich schon, immerhin haben wir uns da ja zusammen mit einigen anderen schon beim Stream drΓΌber ausgelassen, wie furchtbar und grausam die Linien gesetzt sind, wie unnatΓΌrlich die Proportionen und dann erst diese sinnlos herumliegende SΓ€ule..
Ja nee. Tolles Bild!
Und unfertig wirkt es auf mich ΓΌberhaupt nicht. Ich glaube, gerade da du Sephot als schwarzes Dingens neben eine Katze mit normalen Lichtreflexen gestellt hast, wirkt er nochmal extra dunkel und Licht absorbierend. Das ist dir wirklich toll gelungen.

Nice! I noticed the forked tail on Lady Neko, not always a good sign... And anything that's meant to be deepest black is always a pain, I hate having to paint black horses/wolves for Warhammer because they either end up looking grey, grizzled or like I haven't put any effort into them.
I did once have an albino Bubasti character because I thought being a white shadowcat would be funny. Unfortunately it just makes the effects of Banish Cahlash's Brood show up that much faster...

xD aww, yes, I guess you'll have to be careful with that. On the other hand... goodbye metis deformity!
About the tail: oh, you're right. You have to be watchful around her, she's a bit too fond of dark secrets sometimes...

jen-kollic In reply to Tacimur [2010-07-10 14:52:30 +0000 UTC]
A bit too fond of dark secrets? Well, sounds like she makes a really good Bubasti totem then, since they're all a bit like that. (that's what makes them fun!) The albino character I had was actually Homid, with the reasoning that the Bubasti bloodline is pretty weak/inbred anyway and albinism does crop up in humans. But she did get constantly mistaken for a Metis which actually worked out to her advantage since she got to learn a few Metis gifts. Boy were those spirits pissed off later...

xD That's awesome! Hehe! Must have been much fun to play!
As for the totems, I'm sure you won't regret a look at ~HowlofMemories ' Jamak list We've used three of hers so far, and they all became very memorable parts of the group.
