Artist's Comments
Photoshop 7 and Art Rage (for background texture).
I had fun doing this one. I love the colors and textures, and I am amazed that I am actually HAPPY with something that I did mostly in Photoshop. ^.^ In any case it's not based off any one cat, but if this fellow were real I think his name would be Xerxes. I miss having cats. We used to have many outdoor barn cats, but our neighborhood is comprised primarily of families with dogs, so they disappeared over the years due to unfortunate circumstances. (Stupid Rufus and Company.) None of them were ever quite so large as Xerxes-- they were all sleek and thin and nervous little creatures. Some of them were half-way tamed and others wouldn't get near me. But now we have our two indoor dogs (Welsh corgis) and that is quite enough. I think Mom would tear her hair out if I brought home a kitten. |

I read a book that had a cat named Xerxes in it.

Non-anime artist for mediocrity!
The composition, colors, everything is great!
What resolution did you work in? Hopefully fine enough for prints because I think it would be popular.
After a having a catless house with 2 dogs, I adopted 2 kittens. I've slowly introduced them to the dogs (about a month) and now they are good friends.
(I still get nervous when the dogs lick the kittens!)

I used 8 by 11 and I think somewhere around 300 pixels, but since I don't have a print account worrying about that sort of thing right now is kind of moot, 'specially since I haven't allowed myself to get a paid account yet. Maybe eventually once I get around to figuring out PayPal. . .
I'm glad you like it though! I really enjoyed drawing this one. It was relaxing when I was nervous about signing up for college classes and couldn't sleep. =.=
