Description
Current the electric cat, in her latest incarnation...The scan turned out much darker than it actually is - and she looks a lot bluer in the scan for some reason. Argh.
For sale at Conifur 2005 in the art show
EDIT: I changed the image a bit and it looks more like the original colors, but still a bit too dark. C'est la vie

God damn that's some impressive traditional work.
The character design is groovy, I love the chilling colors. And pads on her paws a pretty too. You totally deserved this DD.

Yeah, I drew the circuit board .. I should upload a bigger version of this drawing.
We had an old SCSI card laying around collecting dust, and it just seemed like such a neat, challenging thing to draw .
I admit its not perfectly to scale... I lengthened it a bit, and the traces (the little yellow lines) are mostly improvised based on the general patterns... The real thing is actually far more detailed.

Well it's still pretty convincing and unless we have some dA users that work at Apple , windows or dell I'm sure you won't hear of any complaints .

This is absoluetly....whoa, i'm can't find the right word. The detail you put into your pictures always hits me, over and over again.
Allow me a question: do you take commissions? and what would it cost? :3

Thanks very much .. I've been working hard on putting more detail into my works as of late
Also, yes, I do take commissions... and pricing varies on what you are interested in, but the full rundown can be found here: [link]

wow.. that was done with pencils!??!?! that looks digital.. O.O you did a really awesome job, I loove this character. ::faves:: very nice job. this is amazing.

KaceyM In reply to synchra [2005-10-10 20:49:16 +0000 UTC]
Well, it is pencils, markers and paint ..
My aim was partially to make it look like it had to be made digitally - with some of the effects - except that I did it with traditional media. One of my aims in artwork in general is to prove that everything you can do with a computer can be done with traditional media... (because I dislike computers for the most part)

Scanners can really throw off colors and need a lot of fine-tuning, don't they? Still, the piece looks great despite the scanner being a doofus about it.
Really nice stuff here!

KaceyM In reply to Stormfalcon [2005-10-08 10:53:43 +0000 UTC]
Well, computers and computer accessories, like people, aren't perfect ^.^...
It did make the piece more dramatic than the original, but it also left out many of the fine details I put into it. Also I'm sure the size difference makes a pretty big difference, as the original is 11"x14"... I restrict myself to small-ish scans though online... as a free sample I don't give out the whole she-bang ^.^...
I'm happy you like it though ! I need to do more work like this that makes me happy and proud of it

In certain scanner software programs, you can set the white and black point to calibrate the colors. Maybe yours does too?

okay, two things
1) do you sell prints of this? because I am SOOO wanting one o.o (would put it in the back of my laptop >.> )
2) what is this I hear of more adult pics of her? >.>

KaceyM In reply to netsune [2005-10-07 21:35:13 +0000 UTC]
Yep, I am selling prints They are $10 each plus shipping/handling...
Also, yep, there are 3 other pics that I have done of her topless... email me at kacey@otonashi.net and I will show them to you - I am not sure if I should be linking to semi-adult work from a non-adult page ^.^, (playing it safe)

LOL yes - well, the card itself is actually quite old and out of use... I changed the copyright date on one of the stickers from 1995 to 2005 ^.~ So I dont think she will do it any harm...

I believe you can get her at Fry's, and possibly Best Buy... for the PC or Mac .. I believe they are developing a server-friendly version down at Miyagami industries - but theyre so secretive you never know...

KaceyM In reply to databank [2005-10-06 23:08:44 +0000 UTC]
I did it that way this time for a couple of reasons.... a) more people will be able to see it if it is in the general audiences section of the show, b) I hadn't done her with a top before, and c) I personally collect non-adult artwork more than I collect adult artwork, and I wanted to do something that I would hang on my wall...
