He really should be your character! You should change his name and modify him and make him into your character because i have always loved the design you came up with! You did such a great job really melding the serval and magpie together.
Plus servals are one of my fav "big" cats ever.
The background in this piece has always amazed me.

Yeah, I really like the little white wing pattern on his shoulders the best, and his purple skin, and just... fuck I really like the design. But I may have to wait a while until I can draw him without getting upset or angry, even if I do modify him.

yeah, it's a shame that guy had to turn out to be such a dick, 'cause this is a really nice character and piece of art. this has always been one of my favorites too :)

Aw, well thank you!

I totally know where you are coming from with "Serval magpie designed by yours truly. Fuck, this character might as well be mine" - the monster I designed for my ex is one of my favourite character designs and I WANT to bring him back as my own character but uggg, tainted with memories of blah dick ;)
So, I hear you and I'm sorry. But the idea of a magpie cat is beautiful. Please try and incorporate it into another character maybe?
This is indeed a beautiful piece. <3

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I might make a new character out of him, but I'd have to wait for the memories to die down a bit.
