killing me softly

more procrastination via anonymous asks

i’m not leaving tumblr but in light of bad things happening, find me on twitter 

another hot take: theyre cats from a book and people can draw them however they want without worrying about some weird objective scale of "I Can't Recognize That so It's Bad." it's one thing to say something is not a recognizable design (and let's be real: almost none of the cat designs I see are immediately recognizable because they are *cats.* from a book series. they can only get so different); it's another thing to say that different design is Bad Character Design because.. what? it wasn't described like that in the book? then why are some other popular headcanons okay and suddenly recognizable?

Like it's really weird that y'all see some cat described as thin in the book drawn as pudgy or give them a flower accessory and that's "creative and innovative" but if it's drawn as a calico or something y'all be like "that's too far :/ I've never seen that before so it must be bad". this is really not what character design is (while we talk about good character design, how's that silhouette technique working out?) . that's just following conventions.

hi! i’m taking 1-2 commissions to be completed likely over the weekend, in this style ! 

* full body, flat color, you can choose pose / expression or leave it to me

* feral only, please! it doesn’t have to be a cat 

* small accessories are free (collars, earrings) - more complex stuff will be additional price 

* i can also design you an OC based on a wc name or a theme for an additional $10 (so $35 total) !!

for the rest of my life/ with the vaguest of feelings... 

AND before i forget, here are my pieces for @leagueofzines number two, rosaria!!!!!!!!!! i loved working on this and i’m so so excited to see the end result. watch out for issue #3 and thanks so much to everyone who preordered!
