Click to see the process and hold the edges to zoom Steps listed down there somewhere ↴ Um hi guys. You may have noticed that I am back from that short err break thing? It was mostly the boycott but also I had to mull things over in my life and deal with depression and drinking a nice cup of caffeine every day (Starbucks mango dragonfruit refresher concentrate) If you are on the website that shall not be named then you might have seen this already because I posted it a while ago! If you are one of the OGs from back in *cough cough* March of 2025, then you may remember the first AT I did with the lovely @RainbowProtea … I won’t link it, you can find it yourself if you like *cringes*. Different character but geez I improved this much in less than a year! Ok so here’s the dealio: This is Latte, Rei’s oc, the very beautiful cozy cat with a turtle neck! Obviously I had to draw her with a latte because well…that’s her name. I experimented with the pose a lil bit and I am in love with the final result! This might be one of the best things I have ever drawn! I am errrr very proud of myself :3 hehe Here is the process ↴ ▹Sketch #1 (I use this to map out the pose and anatomy) ▹Sketch #2 (I add all of the lines and floof in blue and accessories in pink) ▹Line art (Went in with dark brown and traced the sketch) ▹Flat color (Picked from the ref and drew in the details) ▹Rendering (Very light and prob not necessary lol) ▹Shading (Set to multiply at 50%, airbrushed in soft shadows and then used a darker color for hard ones) ▹Lighting (Set to add and airbrushed, added rim lighting as well) ▹Colored Line Art (Clipping layer and did stuff) ▹Background + Effects (some noise and other stuff) Ok welp, thats pretty much all I have to say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Thanks for 670+ !!!!! -Brainy (Hehe 67)
