The dynamic dinosaur has a birthday today! Go Kompy! :) She's © Nicole Trujillo, ya know.
I managed to get in touch with Kynliod Dewphire (Josie Bowler) to find out how she was doing. I hadn't seen any of her great art for such a long time. Well, I heard from her, and that's what prompted this belated birthday picture. We miss you, Kynliod...
Also thanks to Catnel for the notification that today is the birthday of another cool cat, Lindgold! Many happy returns of the day, friend! Who says cheetahs never prosper? :) (Yes, I know... but I couldn't help it.) Lindgold © Grant Preston, who's already known for his ability to forgive, so I hope that awful pun will slip by...
He's fourteen today. Fourteen... and is kicking an unbelievably SOLID style! Max... you RULE! :)
The divine Ms (Erin) M requested a nice birthday pic for her fave fur Neadlak, and the gift she asked me to try to obtain was: fruitcake! It's a good thing she asked me well in advance, for trees that bear fruit in cake form are already rare enough, and those that *are* available are jealously guarded. Nevertheless, I was able to find a fresh, ripe bushelful for her. Happy Birthday, Neadlak, from your Erin and yours mewly. :)
Hey there! I'm at the Valley Forge Hilton attending AnthroCon 99, and I've got my lil B&W hand scanner with me! So you will probably be seeing a few grayscale odds and ends for a couple of days from me. In the meantime, and as a test of scanner/laptop/modem capabilities, here's a birthday pic for the Specky One! Who is © the quintessant Susan Quigley. :)
I felt a great disturbance in the Force... now I know why. Squee Rat is a twentysomething now.. *tremble* I was about to ask what she wanted with a flamethrower. Then something in my mind said "Gene, don't ask..." So I didn't. Hava good one, Ms. Rat... :)
Happy birthday to both the chronolapine and the folf! Who are the alter egos of Ryan Dewalt, BTW. :)
Happy Birthday to the top dog of the Newshounds crew! Gee, you need to give us more notice, Kev! Sorry about the dastardly Doktor butting in... I loaned him to Rudy for his comic (which has been *excellent*, BTW!), but the Doktor is a few sheets short of a manuscript. Anyway, I hope you had a great birthday. :)
A birthday pic for the lop of wonder. :) We miss you Trixi!
*whew* I made it! Here's my birthday tribute to one of the nicest artists, (as well as one of the most wonderful people in RL) on the SCFA or anywhere else! She says she wants to get into the animation industry. Personally, I think one day she'll have her own studio. You heard it here first. Happy Birthday, Trixi, Haley, and your creator, Candy Lewin! :)
unci's birthday is today! Man, feline parents must've really liked each other back in March! :) unci sent me a nice pic in my e-mail today too. In all the pics I've seen of him, he seems to have a gently quizzical expression, so I tried that here. :) Scritchies n purrs to ya, snowmeow... :)
Good Rian.. nice Rian. Don't pounce Gene, now... :) .. Had to correct and re-upload this one. Rian © Chris Cummins
One of the newest Yerflings, Hedgy, did a truly wonderful pic of herself and the Kids, telling them the story of the coyote who painted the moon. Many thanks Hedgy. :) However, the Kids often draw conclusions that can't be predicted.. and since the only Coyote they know is Nate, well... (BTW, I think Nate called his FST char. Adm. Slackbar, with an L, but the Kids insist it's Snackbar, so...) <:)
Well, switch my circuits! Cyber the Hare is on Yerf now!! Welcome, bionic bunbun! :)
Hello Eldria (and everyone else).. Just a quick note...
Well... it *was* an honest mistake, Mel. I'm glad you're still here with us. :)
Abe 'Screw Up' Groter made an E-mail request to me about hand-coloring pictures, and how I do it. So here's an outline of the steps I take in coloring art by hand, using my B&W drawing of SilvaVixen ( who's © Emily Stoll) as an example. Hope this info helps you, Abe! :)
Hey! Logged on to SCFA and found an exquisite portrait by Catnel! What a nice way to start the day. This calls for immediate big hugs! Go get'er, Kids! :) Catnel © that nice Colleen Phillips lady!
Big hugs to Kit and Digo! For their timely sit-down on the reprehensible Doktor Catlove... who seems to be upset about that. Tough. >:)
Me hugging C Eagle!
Time out... hold everything! Stop whatever you're doing! Hug Mom! :)
You will not believe what happened to me yesterday! Rian Rial sent me a WONDERFUL real live plushie of... Me! Gene Catlow!! It was the most beautiful gift I have received since I don't know when! All this time myself and a few other folks have been visualizing plushies, Rian has actually *made* one of me! Thank you so very much Rian!! You're the greatest! :)
Here's one of the illos from the story I will have in the next issue of HUZZAH (if I can get it in the mail *today!*) A restoration project of a Star Trek (Orig. Series) transporter went wrong. A malfunction occured... and Dr. Catlove was created! 0_0
Thank you for the beautiful picture, Hysteria! I haven't mentioned this before, but I *love* the way you do your word balloons, with the tail of the character speaking designed into it! That is very unique! (Uniquely furry, too, since it wouldn't work for hy00mans.) Hysteria is © Julie Miyamoto!
Hysteria and I chat a bit more. Hysteria © Julie Miyamoto
This is just a quick little sketch I did for my friend, C Eagle, on the 1st of January... making it the first drawing I did this year! Happy Mew Year!
I haven't drawn the Raccoon Kids in a while, and I miss them. :) Here, Prof. Badgerton, who has already taught the kids a great deal, shows that he himself knows how to listen and learn as well, as they take him to do some real important stuff. They didn't tell *me* where they were going, but it must have been important... :)

Hello Illys! Why were you talking to that cardboard stand-up of me? Actually, I thought you had to be a Star Trek actor or something to have a stand-up figure made of you. :) Illys Dalle © Jeanette Merrell
