Feline Tail Designs and Sewn Tail 1




I don't know how to sew much other than tails so knowing how popular they are in the anime and furry fandoms, I figured that 1) I'd attempt to design some eye catching tail designs and 2) see if I could sew these detailed designs. I did upload them elsewhere for feedback and got some interesting feedback on what people would find interesting or not. So I ended up narrowing down the list from here. While natural animal designs will probably sell better if I wanted to sell tails in bulk. But in general I like these "sparkle"/rave designed critters. So some of them I'm making for myself.

Like that first one on the line up. Finished up that tail today. Underestimated how long it would take to sew and how "annoying" cutting and sewing small spots and stripes could be, but it was still fun and I'm pretty happy with how it looks. The shape could be a bit better but with my next tail I can get the shape down better. It's curved a bit much at the top but the rest of the tail looks fine.

Once I get some lime green fur, I'll end up sewing number 2 on that line up, the even more detailed tiger tail. Though considering I still have some rust, cream, white, and black fur, I might end up making tail number 9. And will the amount of yellow fur I still have, I might make one of number 6 (though I'm holding off on using too much yellow until I finish the digitigrade legs for my Kyuubimon 3/4 partial suit).

Nyan Cat WIP 1



Okay...while I did put a bit more color on this after I did this tiny bit, I didn't feel like saving another WIP so I just left it at this.

While I doubt I'll finish it in time for Attack of the Show's art contest, I needed an excuse to draw Nyan Cat. Just because. It's not my favorite meme, but it's a cute character. And an interesting one to try to make semi-realistic. Cat with a pop-tart body? Sure...I'll try it out. So just got a little bit of the colors marked out and of course that trademark rainbow. Can't have Nyan Cat without the rainbow, you know?
