Pheral the FAC Cat (Original Design) by Raymei

Description

http://forums.fanart-central.net/viewtopic.php?p=15554&highlight=mascot#15554

Pheral, FAC's official mascot (chosen by FAC's members via vote) :)

This is the original design for Pheral (and the one originally used for the site's logo and whatnot). :P
Was trying to play with different styles at the time -- I mostly drew "anime/manga" style at the time and didn't think that the FAC mascot should necessarily be in the same style.

Pencil, copic liners, PSP7.

I don't understand why they chose this for the mascot. They couldn't picked so much better.

It doesn't even look anything close to a cat in the avatars.

QueenPaige on August 24, 2010, 11:42:25 AM

You don't have to be mean about it....

Raymei on June 22, 2010, 5:50:31 AM

This was the original design. They had a contest WAY back when.
After a few years they redesigned it along with the rest of the site. But yeah, it's quite old.

The members of FAC voted for it.

darkwolf333 on December 26, 2009, 12:51:33 PM

aww so cute, Luvs the fanart central mascot

blackpaintbucket on May 25, 2009, 8:57:40 PM

He's not here on FAC anymore, what happened?? :O

Raymei on May 26, 2009, 3:04:34 AM

the original design here, you mean?
Just changes. They redesigned the site and decided to go with a different illustrative style for the new site.
I've actually seen a couple other versions of this guy floating around the web (and I wish they'd use one of those, actually. something about the eyes on the current one don't look quite right to me).

blackpaintbucket on May 26, 2009, 3:07:22 AM

I agree, the eyes aren't right. I think he's really simple too.. but it's alright :o

stevie-bug on September 14, 2009, 3:58:27 AM

oiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Raymei on May 26, 2009, 4:16:55 PM

I was somewhat going for a simple design, but this was also YEARS ago that I drew this (not a personal favorite, for sure lol)

MeredithC on July 15, 2009, 4:43:49 AM

AAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! sooooooooo cute!

I sorta miss this cat. The current one is awesome, but this kittykat brings a feel of the original FAC back. <3

dunno. I don't run the site (and as you can see, I haven't even tried to do the same, myself lol)

Starofwonder123 on November 7, 2007, 11:01:36 PM

Really nicely done nd is a favorite to all of FAC.

Raymei on October 1, 2007, 12:59:02 PM

It's actually the original design and image used (hence why he's the icon, too).
They recently changed the logo to an updated version of him (drawn by...I think Layzcarter, but I'm not sure) lol

But yeah, this is the first and original :P

Rancor125 on September 23, 2007, 4:41:10 AM

The kitty that started it all... well the artistic mascot part, anyway.

FlameTheHedgehog on September 13, 2007, 6:15:09 AM

i like this Scruffy...seemingly drug addicted cat & itsa good picture 2

AeroArtist on August 25, 2007, 9:57:02 AM

IMHO, the logo cat thing is hideous. poor thing.

Raymei on August 25, 2007, 12:16:15 PM

Yeah, it's supposed to be since all the other entries were uber-cute (I honestly didn't think this would win).
Although I have to say, your comment seems like it was intended to be more malicious than taken.

AeroArtist on August 25, 2007, 12:50:43 PM

no, your rendition is fine, i meant him in general. no offense meant. ^^

Raymei on August 25, 2007, 4:08:45 PM

Just checking, I took it as an observation but then thought you might be trying to insult it instead lol

But yeah, he's supposed to be real scruffy and crazy looking. Thought it would represent all the crazy kids on FAC here a lot better than the super cute chibi-anime style a couple entries were going for. :P

AeroArtist on August 25, 2007, 11:02:05 PM

fits his name at least.

andre_ant on July 24, 2007, 11:43:11 PM

Hey, there's a magic card from Yu-Gi-Oh called "Raymei". It has a picture of thunderstorming clouds.

XxGoodCharlottexX on July 21, 2007, 9:41:27 AM

when i look at this cat all the time it makes me want to chase him X3

DarkSoulEmperess on June 30, 2007, 1:22:29 PM

Errr.... I love Pheral and all, but I tryed to draw him and I can't ><..... errrr... I was gonna enter the logo contest, but i couldn't draw him T___T But I love cats, and Pheral is awesome, as is all your other stuff...

HellsPlumber on June 27, 2007, 12:05:22 PM

Definetly the pic,hes awsome =D
Also,where you think of his name.It is a HE right? ^^;

HellsPlumber on June 26, 2007, 7:48:21 AM

Im not sure it I added a comment on here already,but im not lookin through all 193 :P
I love this guy =D
Hes a great character,cute AND cool. Must be so cool to have ur character as the offiial mascot :)

Raymei on June 26, 2007, 10:40:37 AM

Yeah, that was pretty amazing. I never won a contest before (let along one that had to do with drawings) so that was an awesome, awesome day XD lol

Although I always question if it was the picture or the fact I was really active on the forums at the time T_T lol oh well, guess I'll never know

RMXMcCoy on March 4, 2007, 8:44:59 AM

Well this kitty is best for Fanart I say,because its the image that comes to my mind when think of Fanart.I hope Pheral stays as the mascot and logo.

xracheyx07 on March 3, 2007, 7:45:37 PM

That is a cool new logo for fac

Raymei on March 4, 2007, 1:26:38 AM

thanks, but this is actually a couple years old lol
I'm thinking about trying my hand at designing a new one, though :P
