Holy fazoli's, I really hated her old design. Yes, I get she's not alive, but I absolutely love Shady, and I really miss her, and constantly drawing/redesigning her and talking about her makes me less sad. -----Things I Decided to Change----- -Her stripes. Oh my goodness, her old stripes were absolutely terrible. I wasn't quite as fond of her back when I made her old ref, so I didn't spend very much time on it, and it's /very/ obvious when you look at her old stripes. -The patterns on her face. Originally, she looked /nothing/ like her mom. I decided to change up the patterns on her face and add some silver to it so she looked a bit more like her. -The colors. Shady was originally a black tabby, but looked more like a gray tabby in her old ref. I decided to make her fur a bit darker, and make change the color of her scars and nose so they weren't bright pink, as a lot of darker colored cats have darker colored skin and scars. -The tail. Shady has always had a fluffy tail in-roleplay, and I'm not sure why it wasn't very fluffy in her old ref. I made it a /lot/ fluffier in this ref to match how fluffy it was in-roleplay.
