Click here to read the latest update for the article An Introduction To Chakats. This will give you a fairly detailed overview of their physical and mental nature, plus a brief historical background. There are also some links to accompanying illustrations. Please note that some portions of this article are of a mature nature.
If you are already familiar with the chakats, you may want to read some
stories based on the lives and loves of a few of them.
Forest Tales are a series of stories that
focus about the life of Chakat Forestwalker and hir family. So far there
have been eleven episodes written, with more planned. This is an
adult series. Please be aware that many of the episodes contain sex
scenes, although I hasten to add, they are done as tastefully as
possible. Also, as the stories have progressed, my story writing skills
have improved slightly, so hopefully you will find the latter stories are
better. I have included some links to relevant illustrations plus a
number of chakat pictures unrelated to any story so far.
There is now a spin-off series. Forest Tales Presents:
The Admiral & The Chakat. This is an
erotica series featuring Forestwalker and a very special friend.
Further chakat adventures have been written by my friend Terry Knight. In
the multi-part story "LOST", his
alter-ego MayFurr has a close encounter of the 'taur kind.
There is also now a prequel wherein two of the characters harken back to
their academy days in "Academy
Tails".
Other chakat stories have been written by Will Sanborn, a furry author for whom I have been doing illustrations for his stories. I told him that it was about time he did a story for me and this is the result. "Turning Point" is about a chakat coming to terms with hir loss.The other one was a Christmas present for me and is titled "Greytiger Saves Christmas".
I have also written a couple of non-chakat based stories. They are "The Wish" and its sequel, "Second Chance". They are both mild erotica stories, both inspired by a couple of wonderful Terrie Smith drawings. If you want to see the picture which brought about the first story, you will just have to buy a copy of South Fur Lands, Sex & Violence, issue #1. You can find out how to get this and the regular G-rated issues by taking a peek at the SFL homepage.
As this website is dedicated primarily to all things pertaining to
chakats, I have started a collection of works by various artists
featuring their interpretations of the species. To most of them, I gave a
general description and then turned them loose to draw as they saw fit.
The results have been greatly varied, but always interesting. Some artists
have drawn them very closely to how I envisaged them. Others have
injected their own styles or lent a humorous stance to them.
Chakat Visions is the home of these works. I have pictures from Terrie Smith, Roy Pounds, Monika Livingstone, Terry Knight,
Mike Raabe, Daphne Lage, Jessicca Willard and several more. I intend to make this collection grow as soon as I can get permissions for existing works and
commissions for new pieces. Once again, there is a mixture of General audience and Adult material. Underage viewers are warned not to download files marked [A].
Also you will find all of Bernard Doove's latest art, some of them even before they appear on other sites. There is an alphabetical listing of all my authorised scans, so if you can't find it here, you shouldn't be able to find it anywhere else. There now is also a completed thumbnail index of all the images. The Katlist is divided into four sections to limit the number of thumbnails that you have to download at any one time. If you haven't found it already, you can get most of my non-adult stuff from the Yerf archive.
I have been attending (and even hosting) some furry gatherings lately. I
have uploaded photos of all these events including ConFURence 7 & 8 in Los
Angeles, Conspiracy in Wellington, New Zealand, and our own local
gathering in February nicknamed ConFeatherance due to the visiting avian
members of OzFurry. All the photos have now got a seperate thumbnail
index for those who would like to see what they are downloading. Please
take a peek at The ConFURence Collection.
Some good friends don't have net access as we do, but would like to show their art to an unsuspecting world. (Just kidding!)
For a while, I will be hosting a page for Scott Teel, better known to some as Boss Hoss. Please come in and graze a while at
Boss Hoss's Stable.
I am delighted to be able to say that I am also hosting the art archive of the
California Kit Fox who is none other than
my good mate Roy D. Pounds II. Up until now, Roy has been sparsely
represented on the internet. Now we will be presenting lots of his art, both old
and new, for your viewing pleasure. Come, visit his den, e-mail him, or even
commission a picture!
Because I have a weakness for beautiful centauresses, I offered a place for the
Equine Beauties of Hellenic when he told me that he needed a home for them. Come see some of the best centaur photos on the web!
IF you are reading this in the ordinary english alphabet, you should get this great Albedo True Type font. Also get this short note. You will then be able to write to all your fellow Albedo fans once you have installed the font (and this text should then appear in Albedo font on your browser too! ).
So what's left for me to tell you? Plenty! Check out my information page to find out where my art appears and how to get prints. Commission information is also there if you have a few dollars that you feel like sending my way. (Grin)
