Had you made it after any other cat breed, I think it would look small, but it's in perfect proportion for an exotic head. I love them for their small heads and long lean bodies and odd proportions and ahhhh I want a kitty and I don't know if people who are not cat connoisseurs would think otherwise on the head/body ratio.
Also never apologize for posting all the goatdick. Goats are cool and so is Satan.

I hope fan art is okay to post in here. I spent the last few days working on this and while I'm mostly happy with the individual elements, it doesn't feel cohesive at all. The galaxy in particular feels out of place but it looks too empty if I take it out. I can't decide if I should be adding more background elements or taking some out.

No larvae pigs... Yet. Currently in crunch/stay up all night working on poo poo for my show Friday. I need to not procrastinate.

Working on this today. Skydiving hotdog.



I messed up the head, so I decided to use color to fix it and paint over the problem areas.

This is the result.


It's super close to being finished, just gotta paint the drool, mouth, and tongue. Then touch up my lines and add some hatching/shading. I severely underestimated how difficult a large piece is, it's 3'x3'. Luckily I mixed enough blue to get the background good enough. I'd prefer if it was truly solid, but I'm not about to attempt to color match and potentially gently caress it up.

Two funny frogs. Still have to make decisions about what the sad frog king is sitting on, and about the sky behind him.
He needs to be textured with a million dots and bumps still, too.


My wife and I decided that the most eco-friendly lighting is to make a mirror suit for our cat, who always lays in sunbeams.
Then I thought about a cat with mirror armor, and how it could fight enemies who had laser guns.
Then it looked like a medieval saint cat, so I gave it a halo. I don't know how to shade anything.

Thanks for the input! I changed it a slight bit, because it was bugging the hell out of me, but not a lot because I agree with you on the breed. Glad the goat dick and such is cool here :)

No larvae pigs, but rather a beautiful and majestic butterfly pig. Just a rough pencil sketch on a canvas so I can wake up and drop paint onto the canvas.




Really wish I didn't have to work tomorrow, I'd much rather paint this. I should be able to knock it out by Thursday morning though.

I like this idea, and the body and legs are looking really great. I think you might benefit from checking the perspective of the wings though. The near one would be angling towards the viewer. Something like this maybe: http://fohn.net/monarch-butterfly-pictures/page5.html

Yeah I'll try to sort it out when I get to painting that portion of it. But I have to finish this tonight. It's a really weird perspective to draw a basically flat object from. Once I throw color and a pattern on there it should be less noticeable as well.

Making progress. I'm still not a huge fan of acrylics but I'm sorta figuring them out, working in layers seems to be the key.

I know this was a while back, but I think your problem is that the main space-eaters in the pic is are a transparent blobghost and a smudgy human, while you've got very finely detailed elements like the annoying dog (woof woof cute little buddy) surrounding them. Adding definition or even just amping up the contrast on your biggest elements would help balance it out. Napstablook's design IS simple, but you could maybe add his headphones if you need to give him detail? For Frisk, maybe work more detail into the hair? Although I'd be tempted to rethink the composition altogether, Napstablooks eyes are in the middle and draw you to look at what he's looking at, which pushes the eyes to Mettatron, but means you gotta take a roundabout to reach what's behind him.

Thank you for your feedback and critique. You're definitely right about the relative lack of detail on Blook and Frisk as well as the problem with the placement of the different elements. I was also aiming for whimsical, which didn't quite happen. I think I'm going to give this another shot.

I like your crazy galaxy. It reminds me of the hellhound from Hellsing.

This is cute and I like it.

Here's some really rough sketches of some poo poo I'm working on. Kinda minimal ratfink type poo poo.



Edit: I like the space/sci-fi direction more than the ww2 style. There's more room for wacky silliness.
