23 Days of Halloween: Day 5- Feline Apparition

Louis

I follow the amazing artist, Erin Hunting on Instagram and aside from her great artwork, she posts a lot of pictures of her cat. He doesn't seem to do anything but stare a the camera, but nonetheless something about him was intriguing.

 

Cat-erwaulers

These poor Pirate Cats have been sitting around half painted since before Christmas. Finally got around to finishing them.

 

Quit while you're a head

Just playing around with different shaps for Pirate Cat heads.

 

Pull up a stool, Matey...

I'm working to flesh out some of my Pirate Cat designs. I posted a sketch of this guy over 2 years ago and thought he had such great personality that he was a natural cantidate to paint. The fun part was figuring out just what type of cat he should be. Here he is, in a shadowy corner of the Keelhauled Kitty Pub, regaling listeners with a tale of his adventures.

 

Gouache on Illustration Board

This reminds me of something Neil Gaiman said: “Anyone who believes what a cat tells him deserves all he gets.”

Expo Ahoy!

I'm going to the Creative Talent Network Animation Expo this weekend, so I threw together this postcard to promote my blog, and specifically my Pirate Cats.

 

Will you be at the Expo?

Electronic Mechanized Felinoid

Here's the robot cat I drew for Space Base 8, the cool webcomic drawn by my friend David Scott Smith. He posts submissions of Rockets, Robots, and Raygun's on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. You should send him one.

Jarrod Boutcher Puppets

This is something I did for Jarrod Boutcher, super talented puppet designer/creator who did the Little Brother puppet I blogged about ever so long ago. Jarrod always amazes me with the variety of characters that he creates and I've long wanted to paint some of his characters. You should really check out his blog here .

Cat Gargoyle

 



It's a baby! It's a cat! It's a pirate!

What more could you ask for?

Aarrrggg!

Yes, another Pirate Cat. And he likes to wrestle.

Sneak Peek

Another small peek at what's been on my desk for a while now. Long overdue but still not finished yet.

The spoils..

Monday Menagerie

A bit of a sketchdump for you today.

21 Days of Halloween Day 17- Revenge of the Cat Creature

This felt more cat than wolf-like to me, and the Cat creature episode of the old Scooby Doo cartoon scared (and fascinated) the bajeezes out of me when I was a kid.

Tiki Time

Just felt like drawing some Tikis.

Take that!

The worst part is that none of the other dogs would believe Fido's story the next day.
