Right, so I pulled out of the previous GFX round due to not being able to finish on time. Since then I've been working on the image on-and-off and now it's finished only about a week late.

The picture shown below is half the size, the fullsize one can be found by clicking on the picture.

The full resolution pic (1280xs1024) is low quality...the high quality version is 1.1Mb and doesn't fit on photobucket xD Lame. Except I feel justified with the size...this was hand-drawn from start to finish.

I should have tidied up the sketchlines more, but wasn't actually intending to spend this much effort on it. Meh.

Actually it took Cen to push me into doing it.
Don't ruin this for me Strop! I... I want to believe!

As for the less PG-13 version, perhaps you could uh *clears throat* distribute it solely to a few individuals rather than putting it on AG? Not naming names or anything. Xzeno1@gmail.com.

He'll never notice.
I like how he's still scratching his head, wondering what there is to notice while trying to cover and look clever by skirting around specifics.

Oh come on Strop I was just ribbin' ya. I believed you noticed. And you know I don't like porn. Wait, not liking porn tangentially reminds me, I still need to whine at you about college. Fix AIM. Uninstall it and reinstall it. Google the problem. Delete system 32. Do something.

Oh, you could just backup all your files and clean install windows 7. That solves almost everything.

But seriously. That tail-based idea you mentioned. Deviant Art

does it count if I just pretend I didn't notice?


You should know me better than that! But, if you think that's it, by all means, go ahead. : )

Here's what I think of your tribbing suggestion Xzeno:

Get a room you two!

It's totally what it looks like: an MMA sparring session. Amy (I think that was the tiger's name) scored a takedown on Strip but Strip managed to salvage closed guard. Now she's trying to keep Amy as close as possible to prevent her from passing guard or rising into a striking position. But given the severity of the mismatch, her options are limited.

IT TOTALLY MAKES SENSE HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY READ IT ANY OTHER WAY

Actually it was pretty obvious that it was some sort of fight. I thought Strop and Cen would be in the background...

Also if I leave before you come back on Strop you just have to know that you are awesome. Honestly what can you not do?

You should apply that soothing salve to your butt hole before logging into AG, Zahz, it's obvious when you forget.

There was sand in that too.

Anyhoo: Business that I really should have mentioned the first time around: I had a question about the above tiger girl's foot: she seems to have a pad on her heel which is fine, but it doesn't accurately reflect cat anatomy: Does this particular cat girl not walk upon her toes as cats usually do? In which case why is her entire foot not padded? Does she have a very steep arch? Do you simply prefer the aesthetics of the padded heel? I do like your detailing work: You do a very nice job of suggesting complexity without overburdening the page with fiddly little details as artists often do.

Sand up the butthole sounds painful. Sounds like somebody got buried at the beach a little too deep, either that, or your friends play some very sadistic games!

On a similar note I may write a reflection on the nature of being single as one gets older. I've done the relationships thing for a while in the past but am currently not looking, nor do I see myself being "on the market" for a while yet (career and hobby priorities)... but I'm at that stage of my life where every mother I meet (especially patients) ask me if I'm married/engaged (to which I say "oh goodness me no lolololol&quot.

she seems to have a pad on her heel which is fine, but it doesn't accurately reflect cat anatomy: Does this particular cat girl not walk upon her toes as cats usually do?


To be honest I skimped on that detail because my agenda was to be quick. I've run into enough trouble with figuring out where to put the pads (if any) because let's face it, digitigrade anthropomorphised (yay neologisms!) animal legs are a bit like sticking two gears that run in the same direction together. I don't know what would be accurate or most practical etc.

I find the direction of the deep and detailed discussions on how to reconcile these things a bit, well, not the way I'd choose to spend my time! Getting to that point (as I often do given my habitual observance of human surface anatomy) also means being prone to running in that uncanny valley that freaks people out, which is why I'm planning to use a cartoon style more in future. I'm aware this statement in itself is ambiguous, of course.

In this case I gave Amy human shaped feet (a la Oblivion khajiit, so she would walk with her heel too) but even so perhaps that pad ought to be removed from the heel. Not that it matters if I just make her wear shoes all the time like I intend to haha.

You do a very nice job of suggesting complexity without overburdening the page with fiddly little details as artists often do.


Thanks. I'd like to say it was education and practice that got me there but ultimately it was laziness.
