screenshot of wip art of metal gear solid character, revolver ocelot in cat form

i feel like (young) revolver ocelot isn't as popular as he should be. he's snarky, bratty and full of himself- what's not to love?

PSA- if you shoot him full of darts in delta, they carry right over to the cut scene unlike the original (due to limitations) lol

#mgs3 #artist #furutadrop #catart

super colorful, neon keychains and earrings featuring original cat art, paracord and geometric shapes.
