This is gorgeous! The amount of detail you got in this is amazing!

But what exactly is that creature snarling at hir? I realize it's some kind of an alien beast but it looks feline with a, ridge(?) along its back. Is there any info available on it or is it something original you designed for the picture?

I have become quite fond of Chakat Swiftwalk since shi was added to Goldfur's large retinue of friends and family. This is a great picture. The anatomy and motion are perfect.

Yaaaay! A new chakitteh! (Or, more accurately, skunktaur hybrid, if the markings and 'Blackpaw mark' are any indication.)

Excellent as always. I love how you blended the two species. If Pepe LePew ever caught the paint-striped cat, I suspect the result would have looked like this (minus the herm and 'taur parts).

Absolutely great comparison.

I can't remember to've ever seem a hybrid in one of the stories.

Hmmm, perhaps there exists a Skuntaur Pepe LePew

ChakatBlackstar [2007-07-02 00:42:40 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... the black paw and fur color suggests that shi's a Chakat-kin, but yet shi clearly has both genders at once. Is the fur color just a coincidence? Or is shi a Chakat-kin mated to a Chakat, or even a hybrid?

Whatever the case, the picture is well done. The fur and background are done quite well and the expression on hir face is priceless.

Shi is part Chakat, and part Skunktaur

ChakatBlackstar In reply to KaceyM [2007-07-03 00:45:43 +0000 UTC]

Judging by the black paw its safe to say that shi is an astral projector. What is shi capable of as far as projecting and does shi have empathic abilities and if so can shi combine them with hir projection abilities?

Sorry for being so nosy but I'm a very curious kitty.

Heee You are curious! Well, you will just have to wait and read the story. I was asked not to disclose important plot points

ChakatBlackstar In reply to KaceyM [2007-07-03 21:42:03 +0000 UTC]

That's a bit frustraing but I guess I can respect that. I just hope I don't die from curiousity in the meantime. But I suppose if I told someone about future events in my stories I wouldn't want them telling everyone they know about it.

Yes I am very curious. My mates try to remind me that curiousity killed the cat, but then I remind them that cats have nine lives.

I wonder if that part of the chakat heritage is always dominant over the skunktaur, or if you can also get hybrids that have their genders in series rather than parallel?

ChakatBlackstar In reply to UnknownCorrespondent [2007-07-03 00:27:18 +0000 UTC]

well, from what I know of chakats and skunktaurs a hybrid could have either feature, but I think that would only affect them during childhood when they can't shift genders. However I suspect that the chakat heritage is more common or at least prefered after they gain the ability to shift because it is more energy efficient.

KaceyM In reply to BlazingDarkWolf [2007-06-30 20:30:00 +0000 UTC]

Its a part of the species... There are felitaurs that are only male - or only female, though But a defining characteristic of the chakats is to be both.
