Ferret Illustration for the Ferret card in the Crowdsource Tarot

This is intended as an illustration of the Ferret card for the immensely cool Crowdsource Tarot, which was created by beetiger and bard_bloom based on words chosen by 87 of their friends. I wanted to draw this one in particular because "ferret" was the word I offered.

Aww, wuzzles! That's nicely done! I especially like the bandit curled up.

If you ever need ferret reference, Karena keeps a weaselblog at http://okojosan.tumblr.com/ . It's just pictures of Marcus and Cleo.

Heh! I spent hours with Google looking for reference shots of ferrets for this, actually. I thought several times of asking you for some -- I really wanted a shot of a ferret on its hindlegs -- but didn't want to impose. x.x

Oooh, I love it! Yay!

Very, very cool! I want to do one too, but haven't decided which yet.

[rowyn]

I'm glad you like it!

[rowyn]

That'd be awesome if you did! Looks like they've had 10 different ones done so far, so there's lots left to choose from among the ones nobody's picked. :)

*wild applause!*

I've done Random, and I have an idea for one more card...

[beetiger.livejournal.com]

Yay! May I put this on the site, and if so, what version of your name would you like me to attach to it?

Hee, it's cute!

[rowyn]

Please do!

Oh yeah, I should've signed it. Okay, I signed it now. And captioned it, even. Please credit it to "Rowyn" and link back to my LJ, if you're linking back to artists. :)

Thanks! I always think of you when I draw ferrets now.

I may do another card myself. I almost wish there was an index of which cards people were thinking of doing but hadn't done yet, so's to avoid duplication. :)

Ya do good work, thats why i had you as a artist guest at world room con......

[tuftears.livejournal.com]

Great job! You nailed the shape and mood perfectly.

Meant to comment on this earlier, but this is very nicely done! It's fun watching you get better and better - you should post more stuff :D

[rowyn]

Aww, thanks. I post just about everything I draw, actually. I just ... don't really see the improvement myself, so I'm usually too fed up with my sk1llz to do more.

Somewhat belated

[rowyn]

But thank you, I appreciate the encouragement. :)

[rowyn]

I'm still proud of that, too! =)

Nothing says brotherly love like climbing all over his head.

I love this pic. :D The poses are perfect for a couple of ferrets.

[rowyn]

Thanks! The original card description mentioned the one ferret stepping on the other's head, which I thought was perfectly ferret-y too. :)
