Nekomata T-Shirtby *Foxymon

Design Challenges / Mythical Creatures

This is my entry for the Mythical Creatures T-Shirt Design Challenge!

I did a Nekomata~ From the Japanese culture!

"In some places when an old cat becomes a bake-neko, its tail is said to split in two, then it is called a neko-mata. Like most bake-neko, neko-mata are unusually large cats, reportedly a meter and a half long minus the bifurcated tail, and often walk about comfortably on their hind feet. They are said to dance and manipulate the dead like puppets, and are associated with strange fires and other unexplainable occurances. Sometimes the tails of kittens were cut off as a precaution, as it was thought that if its tail couldn't fork, a cat could not become a bakemono."

From Obakemono Project.

I liked this creature so much so I've drawn it *_* If you don't vote, he'll come and burn you jojojo~
~~No, not really, just kidding... or not~~

If you like the design, please vote for it on the 24th of July!
