Nanashi Kitty

Ok, last one for the night.

So, I dug up an old how to draw cats book and figured it'd be useful,which it was. :3 Broke the body down into sections using simple shapesand all the usual how-to-draw nonsense. But it helped me think of apose and get the proportions-kinda-sorta right.
One of the main points of this was, not only to prove to myself that Ican draw felines (which I've never been able to do), but also topractice for the comic I'm planning. Since Hiroshi and his siblings WILL appear in their feral forms occasionally, I had to start practicing.
Here, however, we have Nanashi drinking milk out of a crappy bowl,complete with even crappier ripples. I realized I'd never shown hismarkings, so yes. Besides,the Kensaki siblings don't really have interesting markings. XD; Sad, Iknow.

Drawn/shaded traditionally and then scanned. Cleaned up, smudged, and made him look fluffy in Photoshop.
