I cheat a wee bit, getting help with the basic outline and I freehand the rest…
First, I take the photo and upload it into my laptop… then set it upside down as my desktop background… this allows me to turn my laptop upside down, tape a piece of art paper in place and outline the project… My Aunt taught me art is about having fun and many artists start out this way…
I can usually draw/copy anything I can see a picture of, this just speeds up the project and gets me directly to the part of the project I thrive in… adding the colors, shading etc…
Really looking forward to playing with this stuff…

Hey @Pigeonman … did you want this drawing? If you do I’ll get back to work on it and finish it up… I forget if you told me already, what’s the kitty cats name?
I’ve downloaded all the photos of your cat and will be doing projects later using them awesome markings…

GR8 pictures of all!
Even if Comet and Star are asleep when The Wife gets home, they’ll get up to come sleep on her wherever she sits. They’ll sit at the door if she closes it when she goes to the bathroom. They’ll sit at the front door if she’s late coming home. Comet especially is the Sam to her Frodo, and never wants her to go anywhere he can’t follow.
Comet is the white boy. Officer Starsky here is my toasted golden brown chiwi.

This is Token, my other ferret. I rescued him about a month ago, he just turned 6months on the 25th (his birth certificate says he was born on Christmas)
Long story short. He didn’t have a name and the previous owner didnt ever handle him. He was severely underweight and actually quite terrified of people.
Apparently the he/his cage was kept in their young daughter’s room and she would poke at him with stuff. Just a really sad situation.
My fiance heard through a friend, that knew they somebody with a ferret and they were going to let loose in woods because they didnt feel like taking care of him. So I told her to tell them that i/we will take him.
That first day we brought him home, he seemed okay just nervous, but he bit my finger…like right through and wouldn’t let go. He was just really scared of people but I was determined to gain his trust and over the course of the next 3 days, he started to come to me.
Fast forward to now, you would never be able to tell he had such a poor life or that he was that scared of people. Token will randomly just climb up on me now and pass out. Him and my other ferret nugget are best friends and now live in the same cage. The cage is certainly big enough and has two of everything in it but they sleep together in the same hammock and are inseparable. Now having him, I couldn’t imagine not having him. Hes really sweet now, super playful, and most important, he’s happy as can be. Have you ever heard a ferret “dook” yeah, he jumps around like a nut doing the war dance dooking and just enjoying life all the time.
I just wanted to share a little bit about him because he really does make me happy and has become a perfect addition to our family

Nice Widow. Was helping some friends empty a home for sale a few years back. While clearing a screened porch found what looled like1000+ of em all in a stack of covered broken pallets. Full egg sacs were everywhere. You gonna name her?
Haha I was about to come back with a “name her after my ex wife” joke but I’ve never been married and that would actually imply that I’m dead.
Haha that sounds fucking terrifying. I actually had a moment like this when I almost sat on a billion baby spiders in a porta-potty. What did you end up doing? Sound like you would have to condemn your back porch and
