Caspian the winged cat-thingy plays and daydreams in the sky. How I wish I could do the same!

This started out as a very rough sketch I did for a friend, and I liked it enough to colour it. There are some things which I could improve about it, and the scan doesn't do it justice (the paper had a lovely parchmenty surface which hasn't come out at all well). Not sure about the pink clouds either, but hey ho. Overall I quite like the whimsical feeling it has.

Coloured pencil, graphite and a little ink.

oh my gosh! i drew almost the exact same thing (the actual figure not the backround) when i was in high school. (except with a lot less tallent) it was for a fantacy project so i painted a flying weasle in a forest. LOL. it was always one of the creations i would be most facinated to see. It's cool to see it done so well.

Reminds me of an illustration in a children's book, the colouring is very well done.

The style here reminds me of a lot of old cartoons from the late 70s, like Pigeon Street (do you remember Pigeon Street?). Not sure why though... anyway, he's lovely!

This is very cute and cartoony. He does look more like a weasel or a fox, but I think that's just because his markings are more fox-like than cat-like. The bold colours are really lovely. ^_^

That’s one of the cutest artworks I’ve ever seen. Love the coloring! But there’s one thing that confuses me... where’s the Mod’s Choice?????
