by merystic Artbirb

Posted 15 years ago

Commission for

neoscottie for her bf

scalytitan to celebrate his recent graduation from our university, Texas A&M! :D Congrats Naedere!!

(done in a very similar style to the one I did for Rapier when he got his ring, so if it looks sort of familiar, that's why XD)

Graduation rings aren't really a phenomenon that's gotten over here yet X3

This came out pretty good :D

The rings are a huge deal at my alma mater, even moreso than most other universities here! XD Thank you, it was a fun piece to work on!

I figure it's only a matter of time, we already are having proms at the end of secondary school and college, something we've imported in the last 10~15 years or so X3

Well she was right, this is just awesome. Too bad i don't usually dress that snazzy. Sooooooo, we actually finally get to hang out at FF. Since the last few times I was around CS you guys were busy or something. Neo told me about the concert Saturday night, still undecided on that, but I will let you know soon. Also, holy shit, 40% chance of snow on Friday in Houston.

I've yet to see a dragon or lizard man in proper business attire, though.

I drew a well-attired British raptor a long time ago, it's on my DA XD http://merystic.deviantart.com/gall.....craps#/d1hxgdo

Not QUITE the same but...eh... XD A dragon or lizard in a business suit would be pretty rockin'!

love the clothes he's wearing, a lot of artists seem to underrate the importancy of what clothes say about a character. :) Cool pose too, I like it

Thank you! I do so enjoy drawing clothes :) These were pretty fun as clothes go too! Glad you like the pic!

yeah we need more anthro's in formal looking clothing, it's stylish :D
But knowing the furry fandom, 80% of pictures doesn't contain clothes anyway

I'd love to see more stylish furries too :< Hmm makes me wanna draw lol

Funny thing, I own and wear this exact outfit on occasions that require some formality without the need for full on suit and tie. But yeah, the clothes look great and she really nailed that senior wildcat pose.

Fiereci ~fiereci

Art Whore

yeah :D Well being an European I had no idea what "aggie" meant when I saw this picture, so I looked it up. It's interesting to see how schools in America have such eleboarate traditions, I had never heard of it myself. Education in my coutry is like.. well.. education, we don't really have a school spirit or something, you're just there to learn, get your diploma and be done with it. So the whole idea of earning your ring by graduating is quite cool, having something to work towards, a certain pride. :D

So I assume these clothes are a uniform or something? I know very little about it XD

Texas A&M is kind of an exception. We have LOTS of traditions that a large portion of the school participates in, to the point of other people calling the school a cult. xD Not every college in America is like this, lmao.
Nah, that outfit isn't a uniform, but he DOES look rather snazzy in it irl. :D Maroon is the school's big color, so it's a common theme in Aggie art.

Fiereci ~fiereci

Art Whore

ooh, right, I like that colour :3
And yeah, I figured not every school would be the same, but I just hadn't heard of it that way at all :D

Fighting Texas Aggie class of '04, myself! WHOOP! I even ended up working in CS for a few years after I graduated. It's a great town.

Love this to shreds. It's making all nostalgic. Okay, for some things, maybe not others.

Always good to meet another Ag!! :) I'm the proudest member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of '08! Whoop!! Oh god that article, hahaha...that was published while I was in school and I remember it causing such a shitstorm. :T I have friends that know the furry upon whom the article was based, and according to them he's definitely a far outlier on the furry weirdness scale. Ah well! Still in CS myself for the time being, Rapier4 is trying to go to grad school here :) Thanks for commenting!

That article was the year before I got here (yeah I'm still here...well I'm back at any rate), but I have had the displeasure of meeting him myself. Weird is an understatement.....coming from someone IN the fandom. This is why we can't have nice things.....or social acceptance.
