Poof -- to Sare

Dear Sare,

Sorry for the wait, but now the camera's working, here is your long-awaighted Poof. I hope I have drawn him well enough that it does his memory justice.

(A while ago, Sare Agama asked me to draw a representation of his cat that passed away, Poof.)

Here you go!

Wow Poof look's so real

That picture looks so real! How did you do that? Did you do many layers of pencil drawing? Or something else?

It looks like she used charcoal.

Hi Durriedog!
This is a good picture! I love the little white spot on the dogs chest.
The only thing is that it looks like the dog doesn't have a chin.
Other then that you did a fantastic job!
Keep drawing!

if i blur my eyes, it looks like a real cat.

I LOVE IT! xD

Awww... Durrie It's so good!!! It looks so pretty. The cat looks so realistic, it's like I can reach out and pet it. Keep on drawing!!!

Aww, cute! Really realistic, too. Did you use charcoal or what? The fur's got a lot of nice texture to it.
Anyway, do you have a scanner? This is still a nice picture, but it'd look even better if you ran it through a scanner so that it wasn't quite as blurry.

Thanks guys!! I used charcoal and I layered it, but sadly I don't have a scanner - it broke, and that's the main reason why I didn't get it up here sooner. And in this case, sooner is about five months. I'm so slack.

Hahaha, what a great name for such a cat! He looks rather upset... like someone forgot to put a dryer sheet in when he was put in the dryer. XD Static attack, go!

Anyway.

Again, you need to work on your camera skills! You should practice getting things in focus. It'll serve you well in your artistic endeavors! But this is a beautiful cat.

Durrie!

I agree. You need to start improving your photography.
Anyway, from what I can make out with this, the yes could have a bit more of shine/glint. Cats' eyes are generally gleamy.
I'm not sure what the white patch is supposed to be, but if it's a patch of white fur, you should streak it with a little of very mild grey to shoow texture.

Good job, anyway.

Cheers,

Thanks, PrairieDog! I love it- That is how Poof looked! Keep drawing! Slow down on photography... XD Thank you so much. Do you mind if I post it on Facebook? I'm trying to scrounge up some pictures... This would look awesome!

-Sare

Sure! I'm glad he turned out looking like the real Poof! And it's the camera, I swear - my ego is bruised! xD
