"Refresh"sko🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 || ✏️🐀さんのイラストまとめ

Finally got my drawing tablet to work on my laptop (turns out it just hates GIMP) so the process of getting drawings onto my computer will be simpler/quicker (albeit harder, since the drawing pad I use doesn't have a built-in screen).

Considering the fact the previous two art-trades were a single drawing or two... I think it's safe to say I went a bit overkill on this one. (2/2)

Fun fact: at college I've been secretly changing the desktop background on my college Mac, but instead of completely replacing it with a new picture, I managed to find the original backdrop on the system and I've been adding stuff to it over time:

Happy birthday, @ScribbleNetty !

(Sorry if the drawing is terrible, I saw other people had drawn your character and I was in the mood to try something I'd never done before)

"lighting_testa1_fulla"
My latest experiment in utilising colour palettes and masking (in GIMP) to produce fake lighting/shading

Wrapping up for the underground, it can get pretty damn cold in the Ice caverns...

(I feel like I need to draw coats with fluffy bits more often)

I know some people don't care, but it's been 150 days (technically 161) since I started trying to draw anthropomorphic cats at the start of this year and considering where I started, I've definitely improved (in-fact, I'm reaching a point where I'm happy with the design):

As an experiment, I tried a different approach to shading in Serif PagePlus (using gradients instead of transparent shapes)...

...its not perfect, but it was worth trying [Shrug]

I haven't been working on any comics for a while, but I had this dumb joke in mind for several days and I *really* wanted to use it.

...you're welcome.

1. I've made a new drawing (wow, who saw that coming)

2. I've come up with some new Minifigure legs. They're much more angular, but I personally prefer them, as they are easier to pose than splines/curves (at least, in Serif PagePlus X8).
