AMKitsune: @Totally_not_a_furry: ...Maybe.
(another option would have been 'trying different ways to climb up a very thin drain pipe but not doing a very good job'.)
AMKitsune: @KatukovShrugged: Not at all. It may not be a scan, but it's certainly a good clear photo. If you'd like, I could replace this with a re-angled and colour corrected version that's more along the lines of the other scans.
AMKitsune: @MikeyTheFox: I'm not sure... Whatever it is, I never meant to this to happen!
@-Uzi_Man-: As Adroma said, while you're completely free to express your feelings for fictitious cat people, try seasoning your vocalisations with a pinch of restraint and dash of dignity. We have all sorts of people here, many of whom may find your unbridled honesty a little... disconcerting.
(and yeh, we get the pun. It's just a little too thinly veiled)
AMKitsune: Now we just sit back and wait for more images to be posted so that Katia here eventually looks questioningly upwards at the thumbnail above her XD.
AMKitsune: Ok, I feel that this comment thread's reached the point where this needs saying.
Different people make all sorts of fanart aimed at different audiences. Bare in mind that we're talking about a fictional character here. If seeing fanart that conflicts with your own morals angers or upsets you, you need to be the bigger person and move along to something that you do enjoy. However, if the mere existence of such images offends you in some way, you seriously need to reconsider how you view the world and how you spend your time online because to lesser and greater extents, there will always be people creating content that you don't agree with and there's nothing that can be done about it. For the most part, it's the individual users responsibility to 'shield themselves' from content that they can't deal with.
Luckily, this booru has a strict rule stating 'no sexually explicit material'. Many other sites have no such rule and that's entirely up to the discretion of the site owners.
Just to be clear, there are people who love porn in all its forms, those who'd wish it all gone from the world and those who are mostly indifferent to it. No group is inherently 'right' in its view just as no group is 'wrong'. These are simply views and opinions that people have that don't really effect anyone else. Issues only tend to arise when a person from one group has a go at someone else from another group for not sharing their views.
Many people find Katia Managan sexually attractive. That is a simple fact that, regardless of personal opinion, cannot be dismissed.
Many other people see Katia Managan as more of a 'family member' or vulnerable person to be protected. That also, is a fact that can't be dismissed.
These are two completely polarised view points which, if we were talking about a real person here, would understandably lead to conflict. As it is though, this is all about a fictional cartoon character on the internet.
Look, I understand that some people feel really strongly about this and feel the need to vocalise their position, but for the simple sake to reducing needless conflict in these comments, can we all try to not argue over such an ultimately pointless difference of opinion?
I'm aware that there's been some discussion as to whether this comment thread should be 'cleaned up' or not to remove the argumentative comments. Personally, that's not a decision that I'd make as I don't believe that a site should have to remove comments to give the impression of an open minded and accepting community. I'd hope that its users would be able to bet along without having to refer to others as "sick fucks".
We actually have a tag for this sort of thing now. A tag! "controversial". We shouldn't need a tag for images that have comment threads like this.
Look, there will almost certainly continue to be pictures uploaded here in the future that'll divide opinions. Discussing them is fine. Can we please try to do it a little more open mindedly and a little less argumentatively?
Thank you.
AMKitsune: Panel 1: D'awww, how sweet
Panel 2: ...er hang on, where's this going?
Panel 3: YOU SADISTIC BASTARD! I HOPE YOU SUFFER IN THE FIRES OF ALCOHOL INDUCED CAT PUNS!
AMKitsune: @VeeGilante: If you ever need an image replacing, you can use the 'report' button on the image page and request a replacement there. Just be sure to remember to include a link to wherever you put the new version (imgur, dropbox, another art site or booru, anything like that).
AMKitsune: This is too perfect! Is it truly racism when it's against your own race and not on purpose? Questions for the ages mages.
Just a little technical tip, saving an image with solid colours and crisp, aliased line art like this as a JPG can cause a noticeable degradation in quality in the form of compression artefacts near the borders where different colours meet. It's not too bad at all in this image, but can often give images like this a 'dirty' look. Saving your images as BMP's or better yet, PNG's would stop that from happening and keep all the colours and lines as pure as they were when you were working on them.
AMKitsune: @VeeGilante: While you can directly upload SVG files, in all honesty, you're probably better off uploading them as you have been. For a start, not all devices and browsers can view SVG's (as far as I'm aware) and the booru can't convert SVG's into thumbnails so has to use a generic thumbnail that says "I literally cannot spare ten seconds to convert my vector art to a more compatible format". If you feel that rasterising your images would take something away from them, you can by all means upload the SVG's. You'll just get a few less viewers and no custom thumbnail.
AMKitsune: @VeeGilante: Firstly, Awesome work yet again. I'm not that familiar with the Scott Pilgrim series, but that expression does seem to resemble some of the series' artwork.
Secondly, you have no idea how happy it makes me to see someone getting some use out of that program and I'm glad to see that it (for the most part) served you well. Unfortunately, while this image 'looks' like it should have the SVG tag, it's formatted as a PNG so doesn't warrant using the tag. I blame myself for not making my program's 'SVG tag' question not clear enough. Hopefully once revised, it'll be clear enough that people don't need to make this mistake again.
AMKitsune: I just need to point out that this was almost certainly based on a previously posted image by the artist SoapMonster. There's no problem with uploading redraws or images inspired by the work of others here, just be sure to try to credit the original artist by either mentioning them in a comment, crediting them as an artist in the tags (if your work is close enough to theirs to be considered a redraw) or preferably by providing a link to the original image in a comment or as the 'source'.
AMKitsune: This, right here is weapons grade cuteness.
Plus, the lighting's really nice.
Her neck's a tad on the 'giraffe side', but that's how it often appears in the comic so I suppose that makes it more accurate? Whatever the case, fantastic work and I hope we'll be seeing more from you in the future.
AMKitsune: @mukyuuhikuu: Skyrim with jiggle physics? What nonsense is...
Wait, what? Huh... Right... Ok...
Apparently modded Skyrim can in fact have jiggle physics. Your dreams of a happy bouncing cat may yet be realised.
AMKitsune: Hang on a second, there are two different designs to choose from? It's probably just my sieve like memory doing it's thing, but I can't remember ever having to choose a design. I only ever though there were blue backed cards. In that case then, when my package arrives, not only will it be full of goodies, but possibly an interesting surprise to!
AMKitsune: @Grape: Too late Grape. You snooze, you loose.
@POMA: Adding a Housepets styled face to this already impressive line-up would just make it that much more awesome. I hope it's something we can all look forward to!
AMKitsune: @katiaaitak: It most certainly is! Not only is the overall structure generally better than your earlier works but the colour is understandably cleaner to. The lines are a tad sketchy, but that's perfectly understandable seeing as long, curved lines are usually a challenge (if not borderline impossible) for most people without some kind of brush stabiliser, graphics tablet or 'curved line tool'. On that note, what program are you using to draw with at the moment?
Also, don't forget that when uploading your artwork, you should ideally tag yourself as the artist. For this image, it looks like Mr A.S.Wagon has already gone ahead and tagged you. To tag yourself as an artist, just add "artist:KatiaaitaK" (without the quotation marks) to the tags. That's all there is to it!
Finally, just a little extra thing to bare in mind. Katia's eyes are a light, slightly limy yellow colour. It's a slight oversight that many artists make, but if you can remember to get them coloured right, it helps make the picture that much more accurate (I find that it helps to have a panel or two from the comic open when adding colour to something so I can use whatever program I'm using's colour picker tool to get the perfect colours).
Anyway, keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing where this new 'digital path' takes you :D.
AMKitsune: I get what's going on here, but I'm just going to pretend that she doesn't realise that the box has fallen open and that she's instead just shocked, surprised and generally overwhelmed that someone gave her a box of 'love chocolates'.
Everything has a happy alternate meaning in my little head-canon world :D
AMKitsune: @Tahrey: Amazingly enough, no matter how hard I try, I can't see it! I get the whole 'Diglet nose/mouth illusion' and how it would apply here, but I just can't see it!
I should probably consider myself lucky in that regard XD.
AMKitsune: If that was the case, it certainly wasn't clear to those not in the know. While many of the images were presumably tagged for the reasons you say they were, many weren't. Having more varied tags is great for a having better organised booru, but when tags have such a similar meaning that people un-knowingly use the two interchangeably (or only ever use one), then it's time to simplify things and make the system more 'new user' friendly.
AMKitsune: @woundedkneecap: I certainly can! It was because the two tags were, for the most part, being used for the same kinds of image (anything that could be considered a modification/recreation of another image). Functionally, the two tag 'galleries' had no distinguishing features so it was decided that it would be better to merge the tags into one so that when someone now searches for an edit (or 'knock off' as the booru has come to calling them), instead of only getting half of the results that they want, they'll get all the images that should fit their search criteria. I understand how there may have been a subtle difference between 'edit' and 'knock off' in the beginning, but over time, that distinction became more and more blurred until there was none left.
AMKitsune: @POMA: Oh come on, everyone has to start somewhere, and what do people having lengthy things to say have to do with this image?
@katiaaitak: Posting artwork online can be something of a double edged sword at times. There will be people who'll praise you for your efforts and there'll be those who may not like your artwork as much and be vocal about it. You can't the negative comments colour your experiences. Keep going and in time, you'll find yourself looking back at your older artwork and marvelling at how far you've progressed. Also, my sister wants me to tell you that she really likes this picture :).
AMKitsune: As struggle-wagon said, really nice outfit design.
Admittedly, I'm a little confused by the swapping of her lacrimal caruncle and eyelashes, but that's a minor issue at most.
Fantastic work!
@Unidentified_BA: Don't forget to tag it as such in the future then.
@Kazerad: Please don't fight amongst yourselves. How about this image stays featured for a week and the other image (whatever it was) gets featured for a week afterwards? Everybody'll be happy and no one'll have to cry!
@Tahrey: We try (when we remember) to tag all featured images with the 'featured_masterpiece' tag. Clicking it should show you all the other images that have been featured in the past.
AMKitsune: @Gren: Feel free to inform you sister that her artwork is fantastic and would probably work brilliantly as a t-shirt design. The only thing that stands out to me is the spelling of 'whorst'. Unless it was spelled differently in the comic, I'm pretty sure it's spelled 'worst'. That aside, fantastic design.
AMKitsune: I'm just going to go ahead and add Kazerad as an artist here, seeing as he drew the original version of the 'shruggy Katia sprite'.
It's amazing to imagine how many individual sprite frames you're going to have by the end of this.
AMKitsune: @Man_Of_Mer: It most certainly can! Gifs are generally compatable with more devices, so if you've got a small looping animation, the gif format may be better for some people. For anything else though, Flash away!
AMKitsune: Glancing at the thumbnail, I thought that there was a giant Katia face staring through the window. Upon closer inspection, that's clearly a building XD
Simply adorable stuff. Keep it up :D
AMKitsune: And that, my friends, is why Khajiit can see so well in the dark.
Nothing to do with mystical beings or racial inheritance. It's all thanks to a diet rich in vitamin A.
You too, can be like your favourite Khajiit by simply eating your vegetables (and drinking too much)!
AMKitsune: @Armored-Struggle-Wagon: I'll tell you what would be amazing (and absolutely adorable) if you could accurately pull it off, and that would be a "Lil' Katia" model. Could you imagine how cute that would be? I'm starting to make overly cutesy noises just thinking about it X).
