I realized I never posted these here on tumblr! 2020 did unspeakable things to my mind and body…I staggered away from lockdown with a whole pitch of how I would make an animated Cats adaptation. I got the whole thing up here *taps skull*—it would be Very Good. I can’t think about it too much lest I awaken my sleeping obsession…still want to finish Old Deut and Macavity one of these days.

Fun fact: The term "Jellicle Cat" is actually the cats’ mishearing of the term "Dear Little Cat" (this gives me much joy)

Been writing my senior project about the evolution of Cats and it reminded me that I love this silly musical so much… but I’ve never drawn them b4. Changing this NEOW.

#art :0] #cats the musical #munkustrap #rum tum tugger #old deuteronomy #Munkustrap and rumtum tugger r like. Vaguely revamped designs. #I like to give them a little bit of a diff flair. #but I legally don’t feel like I can change old deut from his official recording likeness I adore it too much.

just wanted to draw my bestie

(reference under cut)

#ive been thinking about him a lot #my art #cats the musical #cats musical #munkustrap #jellicle cats #it is so hard to keep a drawing similar to a reference 😭 how do people do this

Cats! But make it Chinese Opera! When I posted the initial exploration art of Tugger I had mainly referenced Peking Opera, but since then I think the style has grown to be a combination of multiple genres of opera haha

Since they are both sons of Old Deuteronomy, I wanted them to have elaborate costumes and roles that will stand out amongst the others! Tugger is playing the 武小生 (Wu Xiao Sheng) role and Munkustrap is playing the 长靠武生 (Chang Kao Wu Sheng) role. 武生 are martial characters and warriors, Munkustrap’s specific role is a high ranking warrior defined by using a polearm while Tugger plays a younger warrior. Although my explanation is short there are actually a lot more details regarding the difference in singing tone, costumes, and personality between each role! I’ve only started researching about this when i started this project so unfortunately I am still not very knowledgeable about Chinese Opera ><; but hopefully I get to learn more as I continue exploring with this project 🥰

The Chinese text in the box behind Munkustrap reads: The Hero Cat

The Chinese text in the box behind Tugger reads: The Rock and Roll Cat

A colored sketch commission completed for someone over on instagram!

Was tasked to draw 1998 Bomba, Demeter, and Munk! The person who commissioned me needed to give a presentation at a con that talked about online safety and stalking, and it needed to incorporate a fandom they were a part of! So I got to draw this piece to help with their presentation!

It was SO FUN getting to work on Cats art again, I really (really) missed drawing these characters!

#I tried a different method for how I colored the costumes and it was so much easier #defo doing that from now on #art #fanart #Cats #Cats the musical #cats musical #the cats musical #mycatsart #munkustrap #demeter #demeter cats #bombalurina #cats 1998 #cats 1998 fanart

I just realized I never posted the CATS zine I made back in 2020! I've had the CATS brainrot since like uhhhhhhh 1998? I know all the deep CATS lore.

Cats 1998 Anniversary Event: Favourite Actor: Michael Gruber's Munkustrap

Three different kisses

Demestrap, Platoria and Tuggoffelees

Alts below cut

Three images. Each features a pair of cats kissing beneath a sprig of Mistletoe.

First image: a silver tabby maine coon (Munkustrap), leaning down to gently kiss a small gold cat with black stripes (Demeter)

Second image: an orange and white cat (Plato) and a white cat (Victoria) kissing each other’s cheeks. Victoria’s face is obscured. Their tails are entwined to form a heart.

Third image: A brown tabby maine coon (Tugger) has pounced on a shrieking black cat (Mr. Mistoffelees). He is enthusiastically licking Misto’s face as the other is screeching at the indignity of all of this.
