Basil is my top cartoon rodent. I like how you show his mannerisms.

Another underrated film from the post-Walt/pre-Rennaisance period. Great job!

I love his expression. And his shirt makes him look very snappy.

Thanks - Basil is always best when he is a little bit self-indulgent and kinda full of himself

If this would be a cellphone cover, I'd totally buy it, no matter the price
You captured Basil in such unique way - your style is just too much beauty to handle!

I would LOVE to put it up for sale - but given that he isn't my property it would be wrong
But I am thinking about doing commissions, which of course would involve peoples oc's and brain-children, which I would want to make available for items and shizzle.

Yaraffinity In reply to TopHatTurtle [2013-11-24 12:39:44 +0000 UTC]
You totally should think of doing commissions.
Your style is very appealing! I'm sure a bunch of people would want to pay for your work, especially since the magic you do with other people's OCs.
I'd of course help you advertise for it
And maybe commission a piece or two when I got money to spare

That would be so incredibly incredibly helpful I'll let you know if I *do* open up for commissions

Thanks a bunch. There's not nearly enough fanart of this movie in general, so I'm just trying to do my duty

Good old Basil, ready and primed to do his bit for Queen and country and while he waits, he'll have a cuppa. Great pic!

But mainly for his own gains Because that's how he is, and that's why we love him.

This is awesome! The only thing bothering me is how he's only a head and torso... Did he loose his legs in a trap? Β

That's a stylistic choice. This piece wouldn't work if he was complete.

I'm really glad you're drawing in the GMD universe again. I love your style of Basil, always have throughout your masterpieces. I said awhile back I liked how you drew his hands, or they were a portion that has fascinated me for years. In this picture, I'm grinning right back to that familiar smug one of his. Even when having a cup of tea he will give a 'so sure of himself' expression, almost as if he's saying, "I made this myself without burning Mrs. Judson's kitchen down!" Okay, maybe he's not saying that, but it just came to mind.
The untied cravat around his neck and lack of a waistcoat tells me he's just ended a rough day and is ready to unwind with the most popular beverage of Britain. The is a simple yet fitting background, too.
Anyway, your art is always a delight to see in my notifications, and the feeling increases when it involves my favorite characters. Thanks for making this and making my day.

You just you flatter...
I'm just glad everytime people say I 'catch' him, because he can be really tricky. Not just to draw, no, but to catch his essence - that can be a bitch, so I really appreciate comments like yours. It also really gives me the drive to continue.

I had a conversation with a co-worker about dA. She said she used to be a member from its first launch. Eventually she stopped coming around, let her subscription expire, and then she finally deactivated her account. Her reason was that she was tired of the constant drama and trolls who do nothing but stir up mischief. I figured she didn't have a good experience and she decided the site had more immature twats than actual, professional artists.
Having said all that, I try to remain on a positive angle. You, and among other artists here, are one of the main reasons why I've stayed for so long. Also, when I give a comment, I want it to be a truthful one. Depending on my current mood, I often speak my thoughts more than usual. Soooo, anyway, you're welcome!
