Feature 211--kitpaint

 

Rocky Lounging

If this isn't a cat, I don't know what is and I entirely loved it. I wonder how long fuzz decided to lay like this for kitpaint?
But isn't this ink work just amazing? That cat looks so fuzzy and I enjoy how the detail on the cat was designed. Aah, I just want to rub that fur so much! Doesn't it seem like there'd be such a perfect feeling under the fingers?

Lottie

Oooh, a pretty little black cat, at least as Kitpaint wrote on her page. This one  looks so very furry, doesn't it? And how did the fuzzball allow for the sketch without demanding the payment in all pets? (I mean, it's very fast to take a photo, but it's quite fun to imagine the kitty sitting there like has to happen for painters.) I really enjoy this piece, excellent work!

Lion Cub in Pen

So I love the shadow under this lion cub. Temporarily, it made me think of grass under it but...wouldn't that just be right anyway? And, like the first cat drawing in this feature, there certainly seems to be a lovely amount of texture on this piece. I wonder how long it took to learn that skill?
Amazing work all around, I love it!

I wish I could control a fineliner like this! Check out kitpaint's gallery to see more of their artwork, well worth it!

Feature 199--phenomenom9

 

Flower Vase

Oh cool, this piece has some linework that was posted first in the gallery as "Flower Vase(bnw)". Really enjoyed getting to see that separately from the color version--and I love both of them. Back to this image though; I think that he balanced the yellows and pinks very well and the background does a lovely job letting the flowers be front and center. I wish I had a vase this big, myself.
Really had fun seeing this piece, great work! 

Leopard

This cat has been placed in front of the perfect sky color, I think! It not only helps set off the yellow of the leopard and its spots, but just look at how the leaves' colors help to bring the cat into a better viewpoint.
This is just curiosity on my end but I wonder if this work was done with mouse? There seems to be a bit more control than a mouse can give too, so maybe some well created brushes that were used with a tablet? Nosiness aside, all of his work has been so very fun to see!

Lioness

Lioness who has just come from the hunt, it looks like. And hasn't gotten to getting herself cleaned up yet while her stomach settles. Until the next time she has to stand up and help her sisters with things...
She seems to be lying on some taller stone, slightly off the ground to get away from some of the mess left behind after the hunt. And those trees behind her look perfect for the place she's living in.
Great work here!

I really did enjoy these pieces! Phenomenom9's gallery is right here, you need to check it out! He also gave me another link to his Instagram, which is here. It's fun to check both these galleries out!
