NotesI still don’t understand where they saw the fish tail…

The result of my dive into esotericism. Let’s just say that this beast was originally supposed to have a different tail, but I was “convinced” by certain others that there must be a mermaid tail. As for what it is, it is an astral instrument, but it have been spoiled. I had to fix it, and not without outside help. This is what my dragoncat originally looked like:

Initial version of the Dragoncat

By my original design, it was a raptor cat. On the head and tail, it wears decorative feathers, under which it hides sharp spikes. The original version is much closer to my own understanding of astral images. I think I’ll redraw the color version to the original outline, but I can’t tell how soon it will be.
