Here's a female desert Teknikat (a species created by Sarah Bosma) that I have named Shastakarii...Why? Because it was a random name I made up and it sounded nifty. Here she sits near a ridge with the painted desert canyon extending behind her, regarding you with a no-nonsense stare. =^.^= Done with happy prismacolors.

Pretty neat creature! 2 I love the colors and the expression 2 I also, like the way you did the canyon.

:-) Carol 'Talfryn Calhoun' Gravley replies: "Thanks! n.n The canyon took bloody forever... T'was inspired by the painted desert at Ghost Ranch in New Mexico...Where Georgia O'Keefe spent a good deal of her painting career...and for good reason. It's beautiful there! Heh heh...The expression reminds me of my cat giving me one of his "no-nonsense" stares."

:-) Carol 'Talfryn Calhoun' Gravley replies: "Maybe she does have a bit of a coyote spirit in her! Heehee. *huggles Shasta* n.n"

Yay! A Desert Kat, I'd assume by the size of the ears. ^.^ I *joined* Teknikats, but I haven't had much time for anything lately, so I haven't actually posted yet. My character's name is Amesh'ri, you can look 'er up if yeh want. Speaking of whom, I should put up a pic of her..

:-) Carol 'Talfryn Calhoun' Gravley replies: "Heehee...>.>;; I never actually finished the bio for her to join the RPG....;; Maybe I ought to think about doing that at some point, ne? And yup...She's definitely a Desert Kat. Big kitty. Bigger ears. Nyah nyah nyah. >.>;;"

Omg! She is soooooooo cute! I took 1 look at her and said "awwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I wannna adopt her!" i wanna take her home! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..................

:-) Carol 'Talfryn Calhoun' Gravley replies: "*laughs* Sorry, but I already gave her away to my best friend. And were she a real creature, then she would stand several stories high. ^_~ It'd be a liiiittle difficult to fit her in your house."
