Farrago Regains her Wings. by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 10:37:27 -0000

Fanart for the online comic JACK, by David Hopkins. I have no excuse for this image, other than an urge to draw in a style other than my own, and to play around with wings. Circa 2005. Farrago is the Intellectual Property of David Hopkins.

Medium: ink, pen.

Dynamic Pose! by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 10:01:41 -0000

Perhaps the first picture I ever drew of Grimmalkin. I never could conjure up a proper background, but I do like the coloring and the sillouette. Circa 2005. Art and Grimmalkin are my own.

Grimmalkin by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 09:58:30 -0000

Uneasy with the idea of parading Bob around as my sole internet Avatar, I created another character: a gender-ambivalent, taciturn, stick-wielding bobcat in overalls whom I have no official name for. Circa 2005. Art and Grimmalkin are my own.

Shabby Autumn Gentlecat. by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 09:46:41 -0000

Initially in color, I had been playing with different lighting and ended up creating a mess. Desaturating and playing with the airbrush tool in Photoshop repaired the damage considerably, or so I thought at the time. Circa 2004. Art and Bob are my own.

Bob o' Lantern by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 09:44:03 -0000

Another older piece featuring Bob and my ignorance about the layers function in Photoshop. I was determined to create an image that looked good despite all the artifacts in a flood-fill, as I recall, and it wasn't a bad attempt at all. Halloween 2004. Art and Bob are my own.

Old concept drawing of Bob, complete with ugly dissolve gradients and a lack of knowledge about the layers function in Photoshop. Circa 2004.

Medium: photoshop, ink, pencil.

Mary Sue Character by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 09:13:05 -0000

Meet Silverithia Lillium Von Fusterclucke. Drawn as a suppliment to the amusing observations of typical Mary-Sue Characters in the Mighty Duck Fandom, Mrs Fusterclucke was also a convenient excuse to draw another duck character. Drawing bills is more fun than it looks. Circa 2005. Art and character are my own, though lord knows the concept has been used time and time over.

Polar Opposites by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 09:05:39 -0000

This remains one of my favorite furry pieces, ever. A polar bear, and a penguin of which species I cannot recall at the moment. Circa 2005.

Gossa the Harpist by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 08:58:03 -0000

Thanks to my grandparents, I have developed a taste for classical music, especially the pieces that require less-common instruments. I cannot recall which grand outing inspired this piece, but I have always found the musicians to be as fascinating as the instruments they play. Like pets and owners, there is often a striking resemblance between the two. Circa 2004. Art and character are my own.

The Thief by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 08:49:24 -0000

While not a rabid fan, I have always liked hooded rats. So, when the image of a rat burglar clambered her way into my brain, I couldn't resist. The character herself is drawn in ink, colored pencil, and gel pen on bristol paper, and the rest of it I mangled in photoshop. Circa 2004.

Dragon Color Study by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 08:37:16 -0000

Yet another attempt to color in photoshop, only knowing the basics. The digital airbrush is painfully obvious, but in retrospect I'm pleased with the color choices. This was also one of my forays into drawing "mean" or "uncute" dragons. Circa 2003, coloring Circa 2004.

The Fox in the Yellow Hat by Grimmalkin

Fri, 10 Nov 2006 08:18:12 -0000

A profile image of a furcadian character of mine who ended up having an absurdly short lifespan. It was also one of my very early attempts to create an entirely digital piece using a right-handed mouse. I am left-handed. Still, it was an interesting endeavor, and the first step in a three-year quest to conquer drawing with a bar of soap, with the wrong hand. Only a few weeks ago, I learned that one could simply switch the mouse over to left-handedness. Now they tell me. Circa 2003.
