Some cool color coded things I did with @whatlurksbean ‘s cats yesterday!! They’re all drama cats but when I draw them it’s just cats. That’s just how it is when I draw webcomic cats lol

had lots of fun with this! :)

...okay but like... I had to. XD

This is fanart for ArualMeow's comic What Lurks Beneath. Their character Hake is the most precious bean to ever bean, and we just got a flashback scene of him coming out as trans to his family. He did so via coming out of a "cocoon" he assembled of various grass and other foliage, transforming like a butterfly. With all the ways he talked about butterflies and compared himself to one, I just had to draw him as a little trans butterfly cat. So here he is. :D

I loosely based the shape and pattern of the wings off an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, while using the colors of the trans flag in the pattern. I never drag insect wings, and butterfly wings are apparently deceptively difficult to both draw and shade. Not totally happy with how they came out, but I think the end result is alright?

I'm super happy with Hake himself though, he turned out fantastic. I have an app that lets me pose a 3D model of a cat however I wish, so I used that as a reference for Hake's flying pose here. And I don't know how I made that background look so good, as simple as it is, it just somehow turned out really good.

I hope you like this Arual! And thank you for all these wonderful adorable scenes with Hake... we all really needed it after the last chapter. ;-;

This is the last bit of art I'm posting for tonight, I'll hopefully have more art done to post soon.
