I like the little chest bounce/fluff of his neck move he does! I don’t know if it shows accurately (?) but that was the intention LOL honestly I have such a hard time drawing him

This time around, the winner will receive:

-ONE Original Broadway Cast Recording on Vinyl

-ONE VHS copy of the 1998 video, nearly fully sealed (it's never come out of the plastic, the top has just slowly worn open - I've also tucked a bonus inside)

RULES (Please read these carefully and follow them):

Entries will open today (JANUARY 28TH give or take the midnight mail) and will close FEBRUARY 4TH - in one week. You can enter at any time between now and then, but anything after than date will not be counted.

ONE entry per person - when you reblog THIS post, you will be assigned a random number, and the receiver will be picked by a random generator. Likes do not count as entries. You do not need to be following in order to enter. Multiple reblogs will not give you a higher chance - we want to make it fair for everyone. Entry doesn’t guarantee receiving, please play fair!

Shipping within North America will be easier for me, but I am willing to open this up to individuals overseas. HOWEVER, if you are picked and you are overseas, I would very much appreciate you going in half on any shipping/postage charges if they are ridiculous (and sometimes they are). Any import fees will most likely settle on the receiver, so please keep that in mind.

Obviously, you must be alright with providing me with shipping information - rest assured you will be providing me this information in confidence and I will not share it with anyone. If you are not comfortable sharing this information, that’s completely alright, but please do not enter as I won’t be able to send it to you.

A winner will be selected on February 4th, and will receive a message indicating that they’re getting a present. I will try to get it shipped out to you as soon as I can afterwards, and give an update once that happens.

I will do my absolute best to ensure the items arrive to the winner, but once it’s handed over to the post office, it’s unfortunately out of my hands.

Jellicle January Day 27: Skimbleshanks!

[the-metaphorical-jellicle-cat]

here are some closeups of my favorite headshots from this post :3c

[the-metaphorical-jellicle-cat]

A commission completed for someone over on instagram! A scenario based off of a fan song they wrote where Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer make off with some of Growltiger's goodies.

Such a fun piece to work on! Love to get to draw Jerrie and Teazer whenever I can

in celebration of misto day in jellicle january i drew a little bonus drawing of misto pulling a little jemima out of his hat!

[the-metaphorical-jellicle-cat]

graghhh munkustrap

i missed making fully rendered art...ive been so busy chae L

[the-metaphorical-jellicle-cat]

Fun fact

Did you know that Maine Coons wag their tails much more often than other breeds? They wag their tails quite a bit not only when they are angry, but also when they are happy, excited or just calm.

I just know that when Old Deuteronomy arrives, both munkustrap and tugger are a mess of wagging tails.

Jellicle January day 21 ft. the esteemed bustopher jones ^^ and another [baby] mistoffelees cameo!

I feel like mistoffelees adopted bustopher as his uncle upon first sight lmao. maybe that's the first time he's ever seen another tuxedo cat like himself!

[the-metaphorical-jellicle-cat]

DAY 19!! WHOOOOOO!!!

I am SO GLAD mistoffelees's day landed on a weekend day so that I could have extra time to devote to him lol. I had so many ideas for stuff I wanted to do but I decided to use the prompt as an excuse to draw a version of Mistoffelees that I haven't tackled yet...pierpaolo scida's misto from il sistina 2022!! MY BELOVED

naturally I had to redraw the part from the promos that had so many cats fan in a chokehold. I am one such.

enjoy!! <3

Day 18: Coricopat

-

I really really enjoyed drawing this piece, especially purples and perspective! I don’t pay much attention to the twins but I think this prompt list gave me a newfound respect for them!

day 15 of Jellicle January with less than an hour left :') I could have spared myself some eye strain if I hadnt decided to do a colored image w three characters from scratch immediately after getting home from work whereat I had been staring at a screen for another eight hours... but I had this idea in my head and just had to get it out lmao

todays cat is jelly so I drew her in her element, providing care to her family! unfortunately she's dealing with a particularly ornery patient

naturally I wove some tuggoff in there to celebrate getting just about halfway through the month. poor tugger made mistoffelees go to jenny because he's such a caring friend...looks like it backfired tho 😬 (he's totally not sick! the tugger never gets sick!)
