JPG Compressed Blast From The Past. Shway!

Not happy with how this came out, but oh well. I made myself do a background, at least. Not that this is what I was supposed to be doing yesterday.

This was a follow-up to "Puss-In-Boots Retires"--I really liked the textures, so I set out to do something similiar, only on purpose. Unfortunately, I shot myself in the foot by working too large--all the great grainy grittiness I was getting on the original (which was 4800 x 6000) is turned smooth in this much smaller jpg. Darn. Well, that's why they're learning experiences. The scene was inspired by a Chinese poem by Shih Ching, but space is probably too limited to explain.

This was a quick doodle that turned into a happy accident--I had it all nicely cel-colored and shaded with chalk for texture, when I turned off the cel-color and found that I liked the plain chalk much better. I was just kinda thinking about if Puss-in-Boots ever got tired of wearing boots and tried to become a regular cat again. (Hey, it's late...)
