If Katya is an off-shoot of myself, I wanted her to dabble in art, supposedly painting this picture of her lover, Shura. I also wanted it to seem like her tail could move at any second, like she's moving it away with her hand.

This is a reactionary picture. I gave the person whom Shura is based off this picture, and she cited religion, saying she had a problem with nudity. Mind. TeknicolorTiger did like, the most artistic, non-porny nude of Shura possible, but nudity is wrong. This got to me. I wanted to draw Shura nude in the most tasteful way possible while showing off those beautiful back stripes of hers... because I fucking can.
