Each year, I do a charity show at Califur (furry convention) and normally I get painted as my fursona, a leopard. However another performer was possibly going to join in who is an ocelot.
Rather than have Stalking Cat go crazy painting 2 spotty cats, I decided to step down and do something else. 3 hours of bodypaint later, I emerged blue (and it would be 32 days til the paint would be off again as is usual with all my bodypainted costumes). I have been a small fan of the Krystal Character so that was on the option list. Besides, Krystal was perfect for Califur's theme -- Villians.
I finally set on doing it after finding that this costume is a rather underplayed character. Yeah, I thought that this costume needed more exposure.

snout's abit on the long side, but it's still a very well done attempt. glad you had the patience to put up with it well after the planned events for it were over.
Well, I cant sayy I do it often. Bodypainting one's body requires alot of time (which isnt cheap for bodypainters-- at Califur the bodypainters donate thier time so the cost isnt factored in) and the required safety precautions re: exposure of nudity to the public while painting is going on and being in a closed room with aeresol) So, bodypainting definitely isnt as instant of a form of costuming and thus cant be done often. If I had it my way, I would get it done more

Nope. Im a chick. Bodies come in all shapes and sizes but maybe the distribution of my body mass just confuses in these pics. You wouldnt be the first person to think Im a guy. Heh.

Its okay. At least *you* apologize. Not everyone does. The importance isnt so much about if you have a problem with a work of art/creativity or not -- its more on the *how*. Most people that find me via troll sites are not even interested in thinking about what they say. Others just dont understand how they come across.
