An illustration for the Brother's Grimm fairytale, Cat-Skin - read it, if you dare!

I had to keep this under wraps for a bit because it was for a contest with anonymous entries. But that's all done now, so here it is :)

edit: Thanks so much for all the comments! I really appreciate it!

It's a disturbing little story, isn't it? I had the same problem when I first read it: I thought she'd married her pervert dad! Then I realized she'd married some other king and everything was okay :)

Also, I'm in no way condoning or supporting the fur industry - it's just part of the story.

I made a little step-by-step. Not really a tutorial, because there's not much to learn from it. But you can see it here: [link]

Daily DeviationCat-Skin by ~bluefooted is an outstanding illustration. Beautiful use of textures and colors really make for an interesting blend of materials, the artwork almost has a traditional feel to it! A very unique style by a very talented artist! (Featured by `cosmosue)

I love this...all the detail is great! Great work :D. You make me want to read Cat-Skin...I love the Brother's Grimm, but I haven't heard of this one before, so I'll have to look into it haha.
You never cease to amaze... this is utterly beautiful, but you already knew that :)

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”
I cant get enough of your work ^___^ The colors are so beautiful, it reminds me of the Edwardian illustrators.

Ive read donkey skin (i think its the same story)- And it looks like you captured it. Grimm has such fun stories to illustrate.
