Hey pplz! Just started reading this comic (okay so i’m up to current in two days >_>’… what can I say? It’s addictive)
Suddenly! I had a flash of inspiration to draw some awesome kitty pic-goodness. So here it is. Enjoy, comment if you wish. Will likely post more.

Neat! You made her look a lot more cat-like than a lot of fanartists do. XD

This amuses me to no end.

Nice nice style. I find interesting the little color tidbits here and there, special mention to our conflcited “green-eyes”. ^_^

I agree with most: evil Lucy is win.

Edit: oh and I see there’s some code-database-something issue with posting. Amusing indeed. Will stop now. ^^u

Kara-Yasuragi, your art is great and makes me want to lock myself in a well-light but still depressing room and draw and draw for days without stopping until I am just as good as you.

Huh. It seems my post in Kou’s thread was moved here. Sorry about that ^_^

ILB May 12, 2010, 12:29 PM EST.

Comment ID #20650

Huh. It happened to me as well. ^_^

WHAT ARE YOU DOING SUITCASE

I’m suddenly afraid of posting this… Will this end up in kara-yasuragi’s thread, too?

ILB May 12, 2010, 12:32 PM EST.

Comment ID #20651

Any thread with quotes in the title will be confused. Sorry. I’m trying to work it out.

All done! Apologies if your post got eaten in the mixup, I think I only had to delete one.

Thanks for the comments guys. ((not sure what happened there with the moved posts.))

Yeek, I’m so sorry for not responding! I didn’t see this thread until now!

Daisy: Very cute, her pose is quite nice and I love her face ;___; CURLY TAIL AGOGO
Lucy: Hahahaha she’s all rolling her eyes and shit. I love the “RAARRR” one on the side, she looks like she’s kind of half-assing it XD
Tess: I love this one! She looks all shy for some reason >:O EVEN THOUGH SHE’S A HARLOT *Slapped* You drew hair so well!~!
Mike: Oh my god this one is my fave, I love how he’s scratching his face ;___; AND THE WAY YOU MADE HIS SCARF LOOK LIKE A SCARF. Waving in the wind.. with nothing to lose.. the comic needs more happy Maishul again.

Yay another work to post! Just finished it about an hour ago (has taken me an hour to figure out how my scanner works XD).

Decided to do a pencil sketch this time, instead of pen. Let me know what you think!

…And a picture I wanted to upload the other night. Didn’t work then for some reason. I personally like this one.

I love the new one. It’s interesting to see Lucy making such a vulnerable expression :)

These are nice.
I like the dreamer pic.

I’m still amazed by the “catty realism” in your drawings. :3

It has come to the attention of the government that your drawings are TOTALLY FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
This has entitled you to three government-sponsored smiley faces.

>_>… what does ppl think?

Trying to think of another fanart to draw (gonna draw Abbey sometime soon)- any suggestions?

kara-yasuragi May 18, 2010, 9:08 AM EST.

Comment ID #23495

I’m always up for any cute pairings ^^;

Actually, the one image I’ve had in my head for the last few days is from my fic “All It Takes. It’s basically the brief moments after Sarah hugged Sandy in the bathroom, but before she realized the embarrassing situation she was now in ^^;

It looks really cute in my head :D

EDIT: Also, as I may have already told you, I love the Paulo drawing :D But as usual, I’m not great at giving any kind of criticism against artworks, as it’s all pretty much black magic to me ^^;

@Maverik: Lol you’ll get the hang of it. I’d be up for drawing those two- just need that reference picture of Sarah.

Very, very good. But you might not want to draw on both sides of the paper next time….

I didn’t. just thin paper

I really like the Sarah one O___O It’s so detailed! I would have had a fit doing all the patterns all over her body.

@Taeshi… yeah.. it was… painful.

HERE”S SANDY!!!

these are incredibly detailed. :3

Ved of Flames May 22, 2010, 1:52 PM EST.

Comment ID #26801

I’ve said this several times already, but these are VERY GOOD!!! The bodies are well-proportioned, the art is detailed, and you capture the look and feel of Taeshi’s characters wonderfully!

This is entirely my fault, and I DON’T want you to change anything, but the eyes look a tad too far apart. It’s really not a problem, just… mildly unsettling…

Here’s a Picture of Jenny (fan character made by Maverik)
http://kara-yasuragi.deviantart.com/art/Jenny-BCB- fan-character-165255937

She looks a bit old in this one but i still like it. Hope it looks right, Mav.

Comment ID #26904

That’s really cool :D

I love it ^_^

Maverik May 25, 2010, 1:03 PM EST.

Comment ID #26905

Ooh, this is really helpful and nice, thank you ;____;

I kept thinking she was really similar to Daisy.. and Maverik just told me it’s because they share the same breed, but Daisy is curly not because she’s a Ragamuffin XD The Selkirk Rex bit is what makes her curly.

I love the way you did the fading of the colours, though!

AND OH JESUS THE FLUFFY TAIL

and OH JESUS that is an adorable Sandy, though I do agree with Ninja about how the eyes are kind of a bit spread out in some of the drawings ;.; Jenny looks fine, though!

ZOMG!! Jasmine is so adorable!! I just had to draw her.

Jasmine is freaking adorable.

And that is a fact.

ToastyJester June 5, 2010, 11:02 AM EST.

Comment ID #37885

Lets see.. lets get the critical stuff out of the way first. Avoiding picking on any one particular picture the two things that my brain seems to keep catching. One… the eyes and faces I dunno.. something seems off there. Too spaced apart? Maybe the heads are just made too squished down? Maybe a bit of both?

Second problem… the characters builds look very human like.. to the extent it’s almost as if none of them have fur. Like they’re naked humans with their skin painted if that makes any sense. Save their tails and faces naturally, it being most noticeable on the body and legs.

One the positive side…

For the most part though these issues are mostly knitpicks and seem to be getting less and less prominent the more art you draw. The most recent Jasmine picture is quite good, very adorable, the face structure is fine, and that whole ‘body paint’ non-sense is less noticeable.

The real artist types around here are free to give me a bloody nose if I’m seeing things though ^_~

Bribri June 5, 2010, 4:09 PM EST.

Comment ID #38405

Actually i really appreciate the critique, Bribri. I had previousy been caught up on the eyes thing hence have been trying to fix that. Glad that I’m at improving, of only a little. I realise that the bodies are human- i do this for two reasons; 1. it’s my style and i enjoy mixing the human elements in a bit more than other artists, and 2. i’m not yet well versed in animal characteristics.

On that note, i do intend to bring in more animal features. The feet were gonna be my next move. (fur i’m not so worried about atm since they’re only sketches and i haven’t seen many other arists make the characters super furry) I also was going to play around with making the bodies a bit longer. Don’t know how that’s gonna turn out, but we’ll see.

Thanks again for the critique, I’ll keep working at it!
