I was lucky this time! Koda was sleeping on the table more or less still all the time Also, I have this awesome rat skull which I should totaly draw more often. Any tips on scanning ? I hate scanning

Well they rarely sit still xP I was doodling these while they were walking around, and doing things dogs & cats usually do.. And ofcourse, putting their heads/paws/butts on my drawings to get some attention is a regular thing, and sticking their snouts in my face, and (the most effective way) jumping on me and sitting on my sketchbook :P

Cool! Your pets actually sit still long enough for you? Wish mine did. :P My dog Jake will spot me looking at him and then get up to stick his big nose in my face to see what I'm doing. Hehe.

I was pretending I was drawing conbadges for my pets...I didn't like Koda's at all so I didn't color it. Oh, and the colors actually look nice in RL. I need to learn to scan x(

and armsss Don't be fooled, these are also school sketches. Only in my geometry notebook. That explains the absence of the annoying lines..

Thanks both :D And yay for spamming with skecthes!:D Here's another school doodle (I've got the feeling that 99% of my sketchbook will be on lined paper, 'cause doodling is basically the only thing i DO at school...) practising drawing Cato & Puma (Puma is the one on the left) The anatomy is terrible on this one, but I liked the concept of a levitating rat mentally controlled by Puma enough to post this sketch..I might tra to animate it (but without Cato)

I'm still working on Cato & Puma..the two opposites. "catopuma" is a genus that includes these 2 species: catopuma temminiicki (asiatic golden cat) & catopuma badia (bornean bay cat) This is Puma, a crazy bornean bay cat

Moar school sketches :D I love posting sketches I have a feeling I'll spam the hell out of this thread >v<; "palma" is croatian for "palm tree" Palm trees are evil. They eat small children. When I was sketching this, I was trying to get the feel of my new character (well she's been my fursona for a couple of years now, but I created her anthro form about a month ago). I failed miserably on this pic x) Oh, and a random kitty in the corner

Oh, here's one pic I really, really need help with (This is for the Animal Kingdom Challenge I'm doing, so my goal is to try out new styles and experiment) Before I start coloring, I need to know what I should change I was thinking of doing this in acrylics, but I decided not to...Doing it in traditional media means that I should re-sketch it on a larger paper and that I wouldn't be able to correct my mistakes easily as in Gimp Also, I suck at acrylics. So I decided that this painting will wait until I get a tablet so I can finish it digitally. But I also need advice on what colors to use...halp?

Crits/redlines and comments are appreciated! This is a character I'm developing for Swiftwhippet's and FireflySutdios' contest on DA A female anthro cat pirate from the 18th century. Anatomy hates me Dx
