I have to say I typically don't care for domestic felines, but I do enjoy this picture so much.
To me it speaks on another level.
If I had to guess which hand was used to reference, I'd guess the top left in the corner touching her shoulder with the middle digit.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it.

Alas! That is not the hand that was referenced. :B

Those eyes are absolutely gorgeous as well!

Thanks. :D

Oh it's true love, the beautiful details! It's just indescribably beautiful! I love how you drew the details! QwQ <3333

Thank you. :)

Im gonna have to go top right hand because its the only one with alot more detail and the wrist bone is most accurate. love the piece btw XD.

Thank you!

Alas, nope! That's not the one. :D

you know i dont think i have seen you do a werewolf yet in your art.

I'm starting a Patreon page and I plan (possibly) on doing something like a "vote for my next piece" kinda thing as a tier. Maybe werewolf will come up. :3

I'm thinking either the hand on the left that is reaching kinda towards the viewer (so not actually touching her) or the one towards the bottom to the imemdiate left of the line on her clothes (not the one grasping the line of cloth, but right to the left of that one)

You got it. It's the one reaching out on the left. I could NOT get the perspective of the fingers no matter how hard I tried which is weird because I'm usually pretty good at drawing foreshortened fingers.

I guessed it because it looked like a really hard pose lol

gah.



you weren't even trying to hide this session's derpster \ now were ya pentecost??

´like, at random, 17 seconds in, of me admiring the composition.. ..he just jumped out at me.
(don't get me wrong though — i know i won't always be so lucky)


like... ...i was looking over Mdm. Deidra, when i saw that athame in her paw; this event made me curious to return to didi's visage, for whether i could parse any information from her eyes — namely whether she was feeling bothered by being felt up by all the un-referenced wraith hands (http://prntscr.com/pgote2 — that's the claw which was not all natural) or no. . . . .
. . . . .then i succeeded

are you taking occasional "ocular breaks"?
for, even with your advanced techniques, and prowess in working-around the fine detailing that'd make my remaining hairs fall from out of my scalp. . . . .your poor peepers gotta rest at times too

(when i was younger, playing certain video games for_an_extended did a number on me.
at least i did have enough sense to stop playing before i actually did succumb to throwing up!
but i did, at times, push it pretty close.
{i suppose i didn't want to accept that the consequences of eye strain could extend further, wreaking such havoc on the rest of my physiology, bobbie-j!})

This reminds me of the sort of stuff that first drew me to furry art. Thank you.


Also I think this is the only time I've ever actually found the frog. :)

:D Thanks! I'm glad you like.

Oh my god the level of detail in this is breathtaking!

is this how some house cats feel?

:P

Dammit! now you're just showing off.
All those hands!!!!! cute kitty, and nice overcast lighting. Also one of th few times you didn't fall too deep into your jewel tone palettes. Nice work!. One of these days I will have to try the color engine in CSP< BUT i have no RL painting experience to measure it against?

Thanks.

I highly recommend giving CSP a try. I think you'd enjoy it. The brush engine is really quite wonderful. I don't think RL painting experience would matter much. I haven't painted anything traditionally in over a decade.

Hmm the one with bent fingers, where palm is not visible and we see only fingers x3? Its one in the middle of the right side, placed near the similar one, which is holding the character's arm

Or the on on the left, which is open and "look" towards to us. Idk its hard xD they look very skethy and fingers are not really detailed, so I picked 2 with hardest view in my opinion, but still drawn nicely.

It's the one on the left reaching out towards the viewer. :B I'm usually pretty decent at drawing foreshortened fingers for for some reason, that particular angle stumped me so I had to look at a photo. XD

Yaaay I made it XD

Whats CSP btw? I saw it few times, but can't guess the program.

And ah, totally forgot to say it, this piece reminds me this somehow > https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipe.....r_El_Greco.jpg Have no idea why but it was first thought aww.

CSP is Clip Studio Paint. I adore the brush engine.

And ah, totally forgot to say it, this piece reminds me this somehow

And that's an interesting comparison. :3 I can kinda see it it.

oh thanks. I see. Couldn't guess, heard about this one

found derp ;)

D: I think I made this one too easy.

Not referenced, four down from the top on the left?

Alsoi feel awful you may feel this way, I only wish you the deepest respect. Your unique art is certainly due a significant measure of praise. Even if only for the beauty it inspires in the hearts of strangers. God bless you for that. All hands kept to myself. You are a treasure of unique proportions.

*___* Oh gawrsh. What a lovely compliment. But don't worry. I'm mostly okay. Promise.

I found Derp Froggie for a change!

I think I accidentally made him too easy this time. XD

Though choosing that title only makes me want to be That Guy and quote "she chose down" "was that wrong?" "too late now" in the comments. Oops.

HAHHHHH. XD You're not the only one to say that so don't feel too bad.

Creepy fingers, no touchy

I knew which hand! But alas I'd have been cheating so I'll excluded myself from this.

This really came out gorgeously.

Thanks. :D

Believe it or not, I'm an 80s/90s kid and I never saw Labyrinth. D: Not all the way through anyway. I think I saw a snippet when I was very wee. I'll be watching the Netflix remake soon.

Wait, Netflix is remaking it!?
It... just wouldn't be the same without David Bowie...

Nope. My bad. They remade Dark Crystal. I missed that one too, sadly. Also, Nightmare Before Christmas and a bunch of other stuff too. I'm making up for lost time. :D

Well, if you can get over some of the jankiness of the puppets then the Dark Crystal Netflix series is a really good story. Moreover it's a prequel to the movie, so there's no need to see the movie first.

Good to know. :3

I've spent last 20 minutes soaking in the detail.... In vain to find derp frog!

As always your work is gorgeous... Back to looking for that lil detail

Thank you. ^____^

those are some good hands alright. i enjoi.

Thanks. :D

You madman. This is absolutely gorgeous!
I love all the intricate details and all the hands are super good.

Thanks!

astonishing work
I can't helpt it but all these hands also do have something creepy to them :X

Thanks! :D

And they're supposed to be creepy. They're wraiths under her command. If she ever drops that athame, they'll turn on her.

ya know...
...a furson of deidra's means?

it looks like she could craft some holsters, or gauntlets ´r somethin' that could natively affix this athame to her person, so she'd not ever have to even think about actively clutching at the ornament


no?

Nope. The rule is that it has to be held in the left or right hand at all times. Right hand for defense, left hand for attack. Mind you, I have two canon verses. This would make sense in one but not the other.

oh, i meant to say, deidra could craft an item that does just that — one that can bind the athame to her paw (whichever one she elects to employ)
[[i hate that i short myself in conveying the thoughts i want to transmit, like that]]

unless.. ..there is an additional rule, which prohibits such a shortcut

which i can respect

bobbie-jean?

what name did you have in mind for this beautiful necromancer?

She would probably tie it to her hand with string or maybe an enchanted gold chain. I'd had that thought. It's what I'd do. As for her name, none came to mind. Maybe something whimsical and strange.

(i am not good for coming up with whimsical / strange, that doesn't end up sounding like mere klingon..)

how did deidra come about such a morbid occupation, anyway?

I could think of a hundred different answers to that question. :D

are any of them punnographic in nature?

She chose doooown!!!

Need a hand?

;p

Glad to see the updated version of this, because the last version I saw, her eyes were just milky and they looked like she had cataracts, which made the hands around her even creepier.

:P I almost left her eyes that way because I thought they looked kinda neat but ultimately, this looks better, I think.

Your drawings have always struck me.
Successes. :)

Aw. Thanks!
