Description Fan Art for . It's my favourite of her original species, the Podcat. Beautiful, fascinating creatures and surely much more than just "kewl glowing kittehs".

This pic took very long to make and I surely learned a lot about the way stuff reflects in water: weirdly.

If your monitor is dark you're probably just going to see a solid black blob. There's a bit of detail there, though.

What a beautiful background.. not to mention the cat. I love how you did the water and well, pretty much everything.

You're right, I mostly see a black blob. XD But that's not a bad thing, necessarily. It looks really really cool, in contrast with the background. Like... negative space in the middle of the canvas. 8D ... Yeah. Gotta say, I love your background. It's so sharp and detailed, and the colors are rich. The grass and the tree bark really stand out. Did that kill your patience?

Ph33r the power of Black Blob Cat, the amorphous kitten-demon of darkness. *ahem* Thank you for your comment. ^^ And yes, that killed my patience for a loooong time. It has a frail health and dies easily, though.

.... Black Blob Cat? Perfect. >>; It's like... an alternate form.

I forgot to say this in my previous comment, so I hope you don't mind my adding on to it. XD I don't appreciate it being really dark, just because it makes the background stand out. I like it also because it makes the podcat more... well, mysterious isn't a great word, but I think you get my drift. I feel like I could be stalked and eaten by that kitty without ever seeing it. =3

Oh goshness Taci! 8D have you any idea how long iv been watching yoooou? probably around the start of my stint here on DA woooow! I never thought i'd get anything as awesome as giftart from you! Just wow! EEeeeh ^_____^
PODCATS! ok.. ok.. where do I begin.. gosh this is the most realistic setting/scene iv seen a podcat put in to this date! Even I haven't done a background so apporpriate and full of detail yet! Its beautiful! Gosh it almost looks like a photo :3 I applaud your skill and attention to detail! Oooh that rock and the water.. its just so freakin awesome! the reflections etc are perfect ^^ imo.

As for the podcat itself yeeeeee! Though a little dark on my monitor I turned the brightness up a bit to have a proper look and its just gorgeous Taci! ^^ You got everything, anatomy, lights, look all in place exactly as they should be :3

Thankyou so much for the giftart! Im honoured and rolling around in my chair squee-ing as we speak xDD! I will definitly put this up in the podcat fanart section of my journal
