I finally finished it, I continue this commission in my free time, because I was a bit busy with CG academy. I really like how it turned out, it looks better than I expected XD

I honestly loved the design of this character, it is a combination between Canadian lynx, bobcat, and lion.

It was hard for me to draw the mane, because I've never drawn a furry with a mane, even more because lynxes have a lot of fur on their cheeks, so it was even more difficult to think how to draw it XD, but I think it looks good, however, tell me what you think , and what I can improve.

The last art fight I've done so far :3

It took me a day to finish it, which is the fastest I've ever managed to do a realistic portrait. There are still a lot of things I want to improve, but at least I think it looks good.

I've always wanted to try to make realistic portraits as attacks to practice, but then I'm too lazy to do the rendering ^^" that's why I always do semi-realism XD

Hey, here is the rest of the practices I did, honestly it was easier than I expected, and I would have drawn more heads, but the canvas was already too big and I needed to do other things.

I didn't draw 3/4 because I didn't find an image I liked enough, so I think I'll be looking for more pose references to practice ^^"

They still have some flaws, but I'm glad they are not as difficult to draw as I remember XD When I have more time, maybe I'll do a second part, or maybe I'll practice with other felines, like lynxes, they're kind of complicated to draw, or cheetahs

Any type of criticism, or feedback is welcome ^^

I honestly didn't think I was going to finish it today 0.0" I just wanted an excuse to draw a tiger.

The plants don't have that much detail, I tried to focus most of my detail on the clouds and the water, this time I decided to experiment more with the style and color of the clouds.

I don't really like how the water came out, I wanted to add more detail and lights, but it didn't feel it looked that good, so I decided to keep it simpler.

I hope you like it :3 even with everything I liked the final result.

This was originally going to be a realistic portrait of Amaranth but I really like how it looks like this, and I feel like if I keep adding detail to it I'm going to ruin it :b 

This portrait was quite experimental, in itself it is more than anything a sketch and I painted and fix some parts as I start working on the shading, to make it look cleaner.

Some of my human ocs I don't usually draw, since I'm bad at drawing humans ;-; If you are interested in knowing more about them: M: It's only the human version of my fursona, so as such he has no history. He has some changes like the hair color and has a few freckles on his nose, there are no more changes, same pessimistic attitude as always. Caliz: I don't know if you remember Candle? Well this is his owner, I don't really like the design of the clothes, I really don't have a precise idea of how I want her to look, so I'll probably change her design later :b Caliz is an apprentice of witch, she comes from a long lineage of witches and tries to improve herself to show that she is on the level of her grandmother and mother, powerful witches of her city, however she is always getting into trouble and creating chaos from time to time. In this world, witches use crystals, plants, seals, and books to cast spells and spells, so Caliz always carries her backpack with her, and small bags to have everything she needs. Mar: I've already drawn him a few times, however I usually draw him as a young adult since it's very difficult to draw kids ;-; Their world currently has no name, that's why I put unknown. An old man from a fishing village found him on the sea when he was about 3 years old, and decided to adopt him, however, after a plague struck his adoptive village, he embarked on an adventure to find a league of heroes which it said their members where cursed to die one by one, and no one knows what happened to them.

Hey, I was at my aunt's house, and I was very bored, I wasn't quite sure what to do, so I decided to do a quick painting study. I was trying something different, and it was not paying so much attention to the texture of the fur, so I forced myself to use a single brush to paint everything, like trying to add small accents with other colors. My second rule was to keep it simple, and not add too much detail, but I guess I didn't quite make it ^^" well, it's less detail than I usually do. What do you think?

Hey, after finishing Small's portrait, I decided to do a little face painting practice, to improve my proportions, and better understand how to paint and shade the face. After seeing several references and inspirations, I realized that there are parts where you will always see shadow and help to give volume, like around the eyes, under the lips, the nose, and some shadows on the forehead, I know it looks obvious, but from someone who draws humans once a year it's pretty new   I also tried to paint different skin tones, I've heard that painting dark skin is the hardest, so I wanted to try that it, I saw a video that used red and purple as shading, I rather tried to use orange, red and green, I think It looks good, but tell me what you think   Rendering the light skin was easier as I have more practice with it, except for the albino girl, it was a bit tricky as I really couldn't really make out the shadows well when painting ^^" it was quite interesting to see different tones of skin, and see what technique and color was better to shade Also, sorry if the lips and noses look weird, it's very difficult, it's too different from painting lips and noses of animals, their shape and shading are hard to paint (T-T) Any kind of critique and feedback is welcome ^^

Well right now one of my chickens, and my quail are sick and I'm kind of sad to think about what to say but here is a portrait I've been working on these last 3 days. I was practicing on how to draw human faces and I decided to make a realistic portrait, but then I remembereddon't know how to render skin XD, I'm more used to painting fur. I decided to try to paint a portrait of Egan, or Small, because I haven't drawn him for a long time. I also want to update the reference sheet of Small, and Amranth. Here he looks more like a red head, but I'm still not sure what hair color I'll give him, since I don't like the hair color I originally used :b the same with Amaranth, I'll change his color palette a bit. Well, I hope it looks good, I know the proportions look a bit off, but I changed the position of the face as I worked, and that's why now it looks kind of weird.

I entered a three-day course to learn how to paint birds in watercolor, and it really is more difficult than I expected XD The techer made a really nice texture and shading, but my watercolors dripped all over the drawing (I'm not sure if that how is said in english ^^"), I know I need to practice my watercolor technique more, but I decided to do it digitally to see how it would look in a medium that I know how to use. It still has flaws in the plumage but it's just a practice, anyway I hardly paint birds in general, so it's something I need to improve a lot ^^"

Originally it was just going to be a simple painting practice  with one of my characters, but I started playing with the lights and I really liked it .3. I just feel like adding that extra shading and light always makes portraits feel more alive. And I think it's obvious I really like that kind of light that only covers a part of the face, it helps me to highlight the face and I think it looks really good ^^" The proportions are a bit exaggerated, I think trying to make it super realistic makes it lose a bit of personality, especially with this character .3. I think I'm improving my realistic style a bit more .3. I have had so many commissions these last days and just had been a bit desmotivated, that I have hardly done as many painting practices as I would like ;<;

I've been wanting to do this for a long time, basically, I didn't like too much the first design of Flex ( the last image), so I decided to make a few changes, mostly because I felt it looked a bit like vaporeon, and to simplify its color palette as well . This is my reimagining of one of the guardians from the video game Kameo. In the original design he had big fangs, although they weren't used for attacking, so I decided to exaggerate it even more XD In this reimagining Flex would swim like otters, but would also use electricity in his attacks, his paws instead of having pads would be frog-like, so he could stick to certain surfaces to move around.

Wow another cat, who would have thought that? A small reference sheet for a story I've been wanting to write for a long time, but every so often I change details :b and then I don't even know what to write. The story is about witches, or wicca, and this is the protagonist's cat, Candle. And Candle is a mix of bengal because I like them too much XD The story is based on a dream I had :b and in the dream the cat was completely black, but there are already many characters like that, so I wanted to make his design a little more interesting. I also want to make a mini reference sheet for the rest of the characters, but first I want to improve my human drawings ;-;  

A quick cat profiling practice I did, I used the same method of splitting my reference into straight lines, it makes understanding proportions much easier .3. except for the first cat, I used a vanishing point since it's in perspective.

This is a character that belongs to someone in Amino, his name is Copito. I'm trying to improve my realistic portraits with OCs, so I borrowed some characters from Amino. I decided to start with this character because I wanted to see if my shading has improve in albino characters. I think it could improve my contrast but at the same time I think I exaggerate with the darkness of the shadow XD anyway I hope it looks good, I wanted to practice this for a long time, but I have had many things on me so just now I started to do it. Any kind of feedback is always welcome :d

Character belongs to: https://www.deviantart.com/ki-neko-animura Art fight: https://artfight.net/character/2244232.samantha I feel a bit dizzy and sick right now, but I really wanted to finish this drawing. I loved the design of this character, and her witch hat, I really like the aesthetics of this character, I hope it turned out well ^^

A redisign of a pretty old oc, his name is Willy.

A 3d model I made in Blender and then switched to PS to paint it over, I really hoped it would be easier but it took longer than I expected ;-; Sorry if the cat doesn't look too good, I made it super fast. What do you think about the light? I try to do a more exagerated light and contrast.
