October 18 - Pip's Cat

If cats looked like frogs we’d realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That’s what people remember.

~ Terry Pratchett

This is another one from Pippity Pop's Loving Line Work instructions.  Pip does another great job at showing a quickly made, yet attractive cat. One of the common problems when making something with four legs is that unless they are attached to each other in some way, they splay out - I really like the way Pip keeps everything tight to the body and builds only the important features.

I felt a black cat was again one that was somewhat appropriate for the upcoming holiday, but when I used all black, it didn't read very well and I changed the nose to pink and added the white paws.
