Full-view please! There are an awful lot of little lines to enjoy...

Rawr.
Miyu's adoration of ferrets and strange attraction to animal skeletons made her create this strange apparition - a playful skeletal ferret! He has a ball of yarn to enjoy, and a pillow in the background - yet is made entirely of bones, so doesn't shed or eat! Wouldn't that make a lovely pet? Miyu wants one of her very own!
:heart:

In case you're wondering, this piece is done in scratchboard. That means it's a black sheet of the board, and you take a sharp tool to scrape it off into the design you want. It's interesting, since it's all in inverse. ^^ You can buy them at dollar stores and such, so it's nothing fancy - but it's rarely seen on deviantART, eheh!

No animals were harmed in the making of this deviation.
:aww:

The small child that lives in the back of my mind is sobbing in terror, but the rest of me says "OHMYGAWDAWESOME!!" Hahaha. X3

I love all the crosshatching. And the skeleton is... I don't know, what's better than amazing? Awe striking? Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?
Yeah, we'll quote Mary Poppins for the skeleton's description. :3

So, questions:
1.) How long did it take you to finish?
2.) Did you get inspired to draw a skelly ferret after you got the board, or was it running around in your mind before hand begging for some scratch board? X3

I'd seen a cat without a smile, but never a smile without a cat.

*comforts small sobbing child*

Ah... How long? Well, I didn't draw him out first, so... I'm guessing about two hours. It was during art class, so t'was on and off working. :3

Eheh! Well, sort of both! xD I've drawn skelly ferrets before, but only as sketches. Then when I got the board, I realized it was a great chance to do them justice!
;P

Wow that is something special :D It must be rarely seen on dA because of the skill involved in creating the drawing and not being able to go over mistakes :)
Erm...to be honest, I'd still prefer a furry ferret as a pet though :lol:
