Hati and Moon

Finally the “Core Piece” for my Panel at this years Eurofurence is complete!

This was a challenge, really. It took me nearly 20 hours! There where times where I asked myself “why am I doing this to me??” but finishing this piece felt totally awesome!

Okay, real talk now.
I didn’t want to draw anymore. It just was.. I did not felt any joy in creating art.
So Schiraki (schiraki.deviantart.com/ - www.facebook.com/schiraki/?fre…) took me under her wing and showed me some of her tricks anbd skills at my weekend-visit!
How to use proper references, how to layer colored pencils, how to draw stones. I did not finished it by then, but she got some really great Tutorials for the fur over on her Patreon. So I looked there and learned how to draw fur properly.

Her Patreon: www.patreon.com/schiraki
You can see her tutorials, real time drawing videos, Wips, finished pieces etc., all for only 3$.
She even writes everything in german and english, so you can enjoy it too!

Of course I had to use some references. Over on pixabay, you can get some really great royalty free photos! So I combined three or four (with some help ) and started drawing from it.
I learned so much!
And I enjoyed it. Now I am motivated to do more, to try more different things!

Sadly, my scanner killed some of the colors and details. I tried to fix it but it didn’t work that good.
I try to take some photos of it instead. When I get the time..
