Caemgen's MONTHLY Commission Contest

Amerikatt looks a bit... tubby there
Been lounging in laps too much and not enough crimefighting i take it!


Great pic tho

And, as far as Amerikatt and her... errr, ummm, the camera's adding of ten pounds?

I honestly hadn't noticed just how much bigger she was from sketch to final until the topic got brought up. Afterwords, CR offered to do an alteration to see if he could make the feline fatale as svelt as she should be. This he did and I am sure he would be kind enough to share with anyone who wanted to see...

However, I also hit up Jazz (the artist) and he did some alterations of his own.

While I commend CR for his efforts and thank him kindly for them, I think it only fair to the original artist that only his original art be displayed in public - The forums, DA gallery, etc... By all means, I think CR should show his version to any who wish to see, I just ask that it not be distributed publicly as it isn't an authorized alteration of Jazz's work. I think CR did a great job but an artists art is a personal thing and I can totally understand any not wanting it modified by someone else....

ANYWAY... Here is the adjusted art Jazz did, hopefully this better satisfies everyones view of our favorite feline...

And a close up of the changes....

Mel, Ameri, again if you want full sized versions of these as well, just let me know.

No worries Caemgen. That's why I PM'd everyone involved first before posting my version.
I have a certain image in my mind of how Amerikatt looks (less like Garfield more like Supakitty ) and
so made the correction for my own whimsy but I realize that some artists are open to alterations and others are not, so I asked.

His edit is a few steps in the right direction and since he made his own correction I'll forgo posting mine anywhere.
Cheers!

Tubby or not, Amerikatt is always cute and adorable!

Have you decided if you're still doing this, or thought of a theme yet? I have an interesting Brute that I'd like to see against Blue Boltage. It's the ever-popular Red vs Blue battle! Maniacal Electrode is a bit of a rage-head, and is hard to stop once he gets going. Will Boltage's elec-fu be strong enough to stop him?

I would imagine that it could take place anywhere, so I'll wait to see what you're up to.

(also, on a side note, is there still a collaboration thread? I was looking to do some of that.) [edit] Found it... I think...[/edit]

Not really sure... I will be deciding closer to the end of this month.

Let us ignore the fact that for the past 3 months my primary contact with the game has been through the forums. I've been on the road and without a laptop that can play games. Intel integrated graphics do not quite support anything.

So if we scroll way back Caem pronounced me the winner by no contest for September. Frankly it has been a long month and I was rewarded...with art. I wish every month ended that way.



I do hope that link works.

Now I was gonna throw in a little rant about my computer hunt but decided it was too far off topic so I will leave it at, I started over. And will be another 3-4 weeks away from the game in general. I'm waiting for some expense checks and salary check to be sure I've got the money to cover the cost. You are more than welcome to PM me for the full story. It is art related too.

Other story. So the piece above is part of a series in my head depicting the growth of Lil Sis. She is a Kat/Regen scrapper who started way back in 2005/6. Little Sister starts life as a a normal girl. Around high school she and "the blade" come together in a as yet undefined bit of history. She believes the blade to be the absolute source of her powers without it she is totally helpless, or as helpless as any individual without super powers. Her powers prevent her from dying, at least permanently, but she still feels pain for every bump, knock, scratch, cut, bullet, and in this case rocket and missile. The sword then becomes a bit like a security blanket. It heals her and in so doing takes away the pain. In this image Little Sister has been disarmed. All her enemies, rationality, and fears are gone save one. Being separated from her sword. Ignoring everything she is scrambling to retrieve the blade so she might survive her encounter with the Malta Operatives.

In the overall story this marks the very beginning of her turn from being totally dependent on the blades power and the realization that she is and has always been her own savior. That realization will be a powerful one. In game terms the turn from level 40 to 50.

1. The link works fine.
2. Great piece by Jazz and cool idea to boot.
3. Let me know what your computer hunting problem is and I'll help you if I can.
