More cats! There's never enough cats! \o/
Generally when I draw the catfolk of my setting, I try to come up with weaponry and armor that fit their style, but this time I decided to go for some good old historically accurate (more or less) human-made weaponry. Maybe he grew up among humans, or he decided to completely cut ties with his people, who knows!
The weapon he's holding is a bardiche, one of my favourite historical polearms. This one was based on some museum pieces I saw in Finland.

Nice one! If you need a spear or an axe, a bardiche has you covered!
There's not enough appreciation for old melee weapons that don't show up in the D&D Player's Handbook, honestly. Your work is a great exception! I wouldn't be surprised to see your characters wielding a billhook or a cutlass pistol someday...
