I kinda thought this might wind up as a sketchbook entry. Of course, since I mentioned the pateron version in the thread for the corresponding NP strip, now we don't have anything to talk about in this thread.

(Or do we? Feel free to prove me wrong here, everyone.)

Of course we do. We can comment Dan's comment, as that is apparently different.

Still think that Nanase's color scheme being pink-pink-pink is not nonsense but a logical way to highlight how simple she is now. Also, I think there are dolls dressed similarly with similar rationale.

Nothing lazy about that.

I see people color-coordinate their outfits to match their hair (or vice-versa) all the time!  My mom even brought the dog to the carpet shop so she could match the fur color, so it wouldn't show up as badly as, say, black fur on a white carpet would.  (They said someone does that about once a month...  :-)

Dyeing your dog's fur to match your carpet? That's some REAL hardcore there.

But seriously, my cat is black AND white, so one of his two fur colors is going to contrast with everything.

Well, if you can't find carpet with right color ...

Real hardcore is MAKING the carpet from your dog's fur. I mean, would probably take long time, but technically it would be possible, right?

Yeah, but that "long time" might be so long that by the time you have enough carpet, the pet has died of old age . . .

Only once per month?
I had not thought about that.  But now that I have read it, it seems so obvious.

I did once make an 18" piece of yarn from a cat's fur - from just one brushing. (Part Maine Coon without guard hairs. Pretty much the dictionary definition of a soft & fluffy cat.)
