So, I recently got my mitts on my library's copy of "Much Obliged, Jeeves", and was flipping through it, quite at random, when I happened across this little snippet quite by chance:

"Jeeves was in a deck chair outside the back door, reading Spinoza with the cat Augustus on his lap..."

Which made the cat person within me hop up and down, squealing "Jeeves is a cat person!! Jeeves is a cat person!!" which, in retrospection, makes perfect sense but regardless!!!





EDIT:
WHEE!! I fixed the chair! It no longer makes my eyes hurt. ^_^

...And I am still so damn jealous of that cat, you have NO IDEA.

Awww! The cat lover in me is going spastic right now.

I love how content the kitty looks. Of course, who wouldn't be content there?

My two kitties and I are purring very contentedly right now. Lovely drawing, dear!

Yay for cat people! (That does not mean you, Sir Roderick and Mrs. Glossop!

OMG teh cute. ^_^

You don't wanna be reading Much Obliged, Jeeves, though. That's the English version of Jeeves and the Tie that Binds, and it's missing the last chapter where Bertie and Jeeves exchange vows loose ends are wrapped up. You wanna have that last chapter, believe me.

Edit: repost to fix strikeout and also to add that clearly this is another instance of Bertie and Jeeves = OTP, since Bertie himself is so well-established thoughout the books as a cat lover.

That is way cute!


The only thing, and this is really bugging me after spending a month doing ONLY perspective drawings, is that the legs on the chair don't match up with the angle we're viewing Jeeves, or the apparent slant of the floor according to horizon lines.

The shorter legs need to be on the RIGHT of the longer legs, because of the angle of the chair, which we can see from the back, just above Jeeves's shoulders. THe way the legs are now, the chair ought to be facing in the other direction.


Perspective is tough, I'm told, for those who weren't forced to practice is for four hours a day, twice a week, for four weeks, plus eight hours of homework on it each week. (No, I'm not bitter, why?)

I wish I could draw people as awesomely as you, so it all works out, right? ;)
