Description First, I would like to apologize to ~k00shy for taking so long with this. I kept screwing up the pose and fur. D:

Anyways, this is ~k00shy 's beautiful cat Smokey taking a nice, well-deserved stretch. He reminds me of some other cats I know (and love ).

Don't you just love cat stretches? My favorite part is when they arch their back really high at the end.

Teela-B In reply to Spectrolite [2007-08-02 23:47:06 +0000 UTC]

I so! I love this pose, when they stretch their forearms and back, or when the scrunch up at the front and stertch the back legs. Ooohhh...

Awww, EXCELLENT job on the pose! And the expression, it's spot on. And, this is unrelated, but what do you coat your colored pencil works with to keep them from smudging after you're finished?

Thank you! ^_^

Right now I've been using Grumbacher(?) Myston workable fixative spray (that's what it says on the can) since I can't find my other can of fixative. Basically I just went to my local craft supply store and picked up some workable fixative.

I would use regular fixative, but the prices between regular and workable fixative weren't that different when I last went, and I definitely want workable fixative if I'm doing something in graphite. It doesn't stop the picture from smearing completely but it works really well for keeping pictures done with Prismas.

Cute! Love the anatomy, it's picture perfect! Excellent coloring and blending as well, it's very smooth and lifelike He reminds me of this kitty I used to take care, he'd stretch just like that, except he had no tail so he looked like a tank XD

Spectrolite In reply to Blitz32 [2007-08-02 21:36:56 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

Stretches are fun to do because they can convey motion so well. And I wish I could have seen that cat.

Aww! You know, this could probably pass for Sterling. Keep the original and don't tell anyone it's not him...

Spectrolite In reply to NeonLites [2007-08-01 21:21:47 +0000 UTC]

It could though it's a little on the dark side. His fun little furry collar would be missing too.

NeonLites In reply to Spectrolite [2007-08-01 22:36:27 +0000 UTC]

Say it's artistic intervention-- you thought he needed to be darker and without a furry collar. No one will ever know...
