This was made with my blue animation pencil and started out as a quick sketch that I worked out:) I was really happy with the movement of the picture and even happier that I pulled of the cats body:) It depicts a young woodcat in training for the national game, which is a sort of handball game. It's played with a wooden ball that has a large metal handle on it. It's played by two teams and the idea is to throw the ball to each other and try to get it into a goal:)

You're a talented artist, I can see you've got great drawing skills. I love this blue pencil pictures, they look so cool. The velociraptor's anatomy is awesome and you're right, you did get the pose of the woodcat well. Keep the good work =)

P,D.
I don't usually do this but....**FIRST COMMENT DANCE**!!!!

AMAZING! Where did you get those pencils? They look spiff..o_o

The motion kicks..Everything looks as if it'll jump out and run around!

:-) Frieda Van Raevels replies: "Thanks2Those are animation pencils and we can buy them in school, they are basically just blue pencils, but they are a lot easier to erase. I like working with them, but not all the time, because they need sharpening every ten seconds if you want to do something detailed2lol"

This is amazing! So much action, space, speed, weight, and all doen with a few sketchy lines.

:-) Frieda Van Raevels replies: "Thanks very much!1 I really hope I can pull it off one day to get an entire team worked out racing around an arena2.."

Uitwerken !!! I realy wish to see the final result. Promising...

:-) Frieda Van Raevels replies: "Lol2 Thanks!2I've got no plans yet to work this one out in colour, but when I've got a good day I'm gonna attempt doing some kind of frenzied action scene with the entire team2There are several breeds of cats and these ones live in the woods, but there's a breed that lives on the plains and they have horses as mounts..might be interesting to put them against each other in a tournament. The dino's would have speed as an advantage but the horses would be more flexible for the short turns and quick changes of direction..*ponders about it and grabs for pencil2*"
