I don't draw monkeys often.

Hee hee. My favorite part is the prissy little tail. "Plants can't eat me cause I can wave my prissy little tail in their face!" ^^

Anways, these cats live in trees. Born in trees, die in trees, rarely leave the trees aside from getting water. They brace themselves against the trunks and latch on with retractable claws during particularly hard gusts of wind.

-snicker- The pansy-tail.

Edit: I forgot to mention how awesome this contest idea was. There's not many things I enjoy more than thinking up odd critters.

O.O Something with Mardi-Gras colors that Isn't drunk.

Good job! I am glad that you had fun with this picture. I looked through your user board, and this is at least one of your top two. I like your creative idea, it is very different from most! Lol at your previous comment; your monkey looks hilarious.
renire (Aug 30, 2005)
This is a very good one. But the thing that worries me most, Is when this creature climbs down from the trees to get some water, the crocodiles may eat him/her! How will your creature prevent this from happening? Other than this, I love your drawing! ^_^

@Derrick: Ha ha, yeah. We should get the poor thing a daiquiri
@Dino: Thanks. I put alot of effort into this one, where most of my stuff on here is just doodles. And most of my stuff on here is really really really old. And yeah, I like the monkey too. ^^ The entire time I drew him I was humming the "Curious George" theme song. *snicker*
@Renire: Well, they have claws.... Plus I thought long and hard about that problem, when the solution hit me. They'll get eaten. There has to be something to kill one of them off now and then, otherwise they'll dominate the ecosystem, deplete their food supply, thus killing themselves off and the other species that depended on the same game that they ate. If you create a super creature that's invincible, it'll eventually starve. Check out nature, you'll find that everything has to have something that kills it.

I have this tube of henna paste, and I love making designs like this on my hands.
When this first started out there wasn't any real objective. Just some squiggles. But when the image of a tiger thing showed up I had no choice but to indulge it. Well, I think it's a tiger. I've no idea what it is.
But it has an eye, an ear, and a snout.

Well. First things first. The writing on the prompt was amazing, as was the idea as a whole--thanks so much, DinoFlorist!
This was the second entry I did; the first one I worked on for four and a half hours, only to have the applet go crazy on me (look at the front leg!), killing everything I had done. Here's the link.
This little guy has eight skinny, double-jointed legs. The first pair have an extra joint, and are usually carried folded over on its back. All of them are tipped with the claws you can see, made of three claws that close into points. When the winds come around, it can stick all of the claws into the ground, and extend them to give it more leverage. These also come in useful when catching rabbits and fish, and to jab at the alligator. The many legs distribute its weight over many small points of ground and so help to avoid the mines. It is camouflaged, and so is invisible from the creature-eating plants. As for the monkeys and their coconuts, well, lucky for them, these thingies taste pretty good. Can't be helped with that big body and skinny legs.
I'm really happy with the expression on the fish.
Edit: Compression killed this. And, eew, there are ugly lines on the left side that I didn't notice before.

omg id run if i saw that thing, it looks like a giant spider! eeeek, great idea with the claws :)
laurael (Aug 29, 2005)
Very creepy looking thing. Wouldn't want 'that' crawling on me. Love the eye.
DinoFlorist (Aug 30, 2005)
This is a very nice composition and work as a whole. The picture is very fluid and complementary. After I looked at the habitat I made them live in, I thought of a spider legged creature too (also to avoid mines)!

This soft oil medium style is fantastic.

I love how you put so much effort into the background, it looks really nice. Everybody keeps talking about the mohawk, but that monkey's really rocking the goatee!
DinoFlorist (Aug 30, 2005)
I looked through your board and I can see that you are usually a portrait artist. I hope you had fun doing something a little different. This is really neat. I really think the pink works surprisingly well in this picture.
renire (edited Aug 31, 2005)
*Nods* I agree with all of you, the Mohawk is crazy, with amazing coulors! I like this entry alot, and I like the little pond. :D

Edit: How is he going to avoid the mines?????
Gemmy619 (Sep 1, 2005)
He can climb the trees just like the monkeys so when there around he knows to get up high or get splattered all over the trees lol

Nothing better than corrupting an innocent person. >;D
Nice drawing, I like the use of the pencil like brush. <:)

silvercoyote (Aug 27, 2005)
I know, lots of fun, corrupting.
Thanks, I was going for the pencil look. Glad someone caught it.
nekodesu (Aug 28, 2005)
Once upon a time, I was innocent...but after reading several R rated Harry Potter fanfics, it was all gone. lol now I enjoy corrupting others. XD And niffty looking drawing there.
silvercoyote (Aug 28, 2005)
Whoa man. I can't handle fanfics. Those things are like... pure evil. Corrupting small, innocent minds is fun. I've got a group of freshman I'm currently working on corrupting. Muahahahahahaaa!
Thanks for the comment.

Big Fish? How so?
Thanks for the comment.
LisaAnne (Aug 28, 2005)
In the movie there is a part when the main character has a run in with a warewolf (not sure if you've seen the film or not...its one of my favorites).
After the encounter he tells the audience: "I find that most things we consider evil, are just lonely and lacking in social niceties" (That might not be a perfect quotation, but as close as I can remember)
No problem, its a good drawing, that makes me smile.
silvercoyote (Aug 28, 2005)
I've seen the movie (and loved it) but I had completely forgotten about the werewolf part. -sigh- Me and my memory loss.
WhoMovedMyCheese (Nov 7, 2005)
who wants to flippin' hug that thing? I hope it falls into the garbage disposal and gets chopped up into little pieces and eaten by some obese guy who implodes because its so morbidly stupid.
