Samurai Cat Illustrations

Seven Samurai Cat

Inspired by Japan classic movie, Seven Samurai

Bountiful Catch

Samurai Cat(ch) series, red.

Cat Vs Cat (Fish)

In Japanese mythology, Namazu a giant catfish is believed to cause earthquakes. He lives in the mud under the islands of Japan, and is guarded by the God Kashima who restrains the catfish. I think the God was actually a big cat with the hope to save mankind.

Samurai Catloo

RGB Cat series, blue. Inspired by Jin (Samurai Champloo) from Japanese animation.

Samurai Cat X

RGB Cat series, red. Inspired by Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin), a japanese manga and animation from the 90s.

Three Swords Cat

RGB Cat series, green. Inspired by Roronoa Zoro (One Piece) from japanese manga and animation.

Lord Of Cats

Takeda Neko gen, a preeminent feudal lord with military prestige who sought for the control of Japan in the late stage of Sengoku perio.

The Big Catch

Inspired by Japan folklore of Kintaro or the Golden Boy battling a giant carp. Perhaps the legend did not mentioned that Kintaro was actually a cat and he was battling a carp with a kabuki make up.

Fruitful Catch

Samurai Cat(ch) series, green.

Nekojutsu

Neko means a cat, and Jutsu means technique, method, spell, skill or trick. Hes the cat who is going to be the next hokage (means Fire Shadow)!

Delightful Catch

Samurai Cat(ch) series, blue.

Good point I always wondered what Toby was dreaming about - she would squirm, purr and stretch while she slept - we knew she was having a good time but we always wondered what she ws thinking about.

One of them looks as if he's holding up a catfish. I think there should have been some professional courtesy there.
