Some of my friends may recall a discussion on FurryMUCK about this idea: critters with their fur dyed with the markings of other species. Here's HoneyBadger with a tiger-stripe dye-job. I think it looks great. :D

I have to acknowledge some work I saw by Joe Rosales and Tygger Graf for this concept. I hear that the idea actually originates with Jeremy Bernel, but I don't think I've seen those drawings. This one's HoneyBadger with her fur dyed in classic vixen markings. I don't think they suit her as well as the tiger stripes, or her normal markings.

I have so much trouble thinking of poses, and most of my pictures tend to show furs just standing or sitting around. Ah well. Here's an attempt at a picture that seems to actually depict something. Women seem think that they look like hell first thing in the morning. :D I think most guys rather like the tousled, drowsy look. :)

Here is a detail closeup, showing the crispness of the line work, and how the ends of the inked lines are terminated cleanly and sharply.Also the use of hatchure brings out the form as wll as shading. Marks of superior workmanship. Thanks Mike! Even © 1999 Scott A. H. Ruggels

"It's only howlin' at the moon!" Well, now that my requisite Kansas quote is out of the way, I'd better describe the picture. (What picture? Oh, THIS picture...) Suffice it to say that even Newshounds have baser instincts, which cats don't quite get.

Some "behind the scenes" head sketches of my comic charatcer-self as a cartoon fox in "mp_bye.jpg". I'm working on a follow-up of my own for Thomas K. Dye's "scooped.jpg". Great pic, dude! -- I know that I said I'd stop uploading for a while after "mp_news.jpg". But, can you blame me if I'm having too much fun here? ;o)

A random lioness. OK, I lied, she's not random. She has a history and stuff, but I'm not at liberty to talk about it right now. ©Me, as usual

Heya folks- one of my more recent Commission success stories :) This is a prisma color piece that was commissioned by the friendly Kirstin Robertson of her character, Kitan. I had fun with this one- hope she enjoys it. She should be receiving it in the mail very soon :)

Hope you people get the joke to this comic. Anyways, while watching channel...*forgets what channel #...* TBS, I got the idea for this comic. If you've seen Evita, then u'll know that Madonna stars in it. So, here we have the J. Ratte production of Evita, starring Aleisha as Madonna who stars as Evita. And you should also know about the song "Don't Cry for Me Argentina". Now, read the comic, and see if you can guess what the joke is :) Keyword: Madonna. Aleisha c. to Steph. Evita c. to..I have no idea.
