Hello hello! 
It's pretty slow day for me today at work and I basically have nothing to do (Logsheets updated, forms filled, no sample in sight. Smooth sailing). That's why I decided to draw something since even my superior isn't able to give me something to do XD
So this week's fan art, I ended up making the kitty again XD I ended up falling in love with this card because I love cats and I actually just use my cat as my model so I don't have a hard time referencing the pose. I just pose my cat and give him treats after
Duration: 6 hours
Software: gopaint
So this one, I started it over the weekend, while helping my cousin clean and cook for his house blessing, then only managed to finish it today because I was bored out of my mind.
Here is the Byzantine kitty from the site ^^
Then here is my progression
I forgot to take a photo of the sketch but I did remember to take a snap of when it looked like a blob XD it actually took a while for me to balance out the background, the tones and the hue I wanted to work with but I knew I wanted it to be a sun cat this time because I already made a dream cat before XD
Then rough detailing. I mostly used the hair brushes for this one and I ended up using all 3 of the brushes there because one was for making the base layer, the other one was for the texture and the other one was for making the hair look clumped together. It was more of a hair detail brush but it had some opacity to it, which I liked a lot since I'm the type that makes good use of brush and color opacity in all the drawings I do.
These were more detailing but I kept alternating between the base color and a darker shade to give it more detail. And I think the fur part in itself was what ate up so much of my time because I was already on a 3 hour mark here when I finally got to work on my lighter shades xD
Then these were my almost finished cats but I decided to add the wigs last minute and that took me another hour to finish XD aside from the light and sun speck effects and all UwU
Overall, I am really happy with this one and I don't regret going 6 full hours here because the outcome is soooo worth it OwO and it's such a pretty kitty.
I hope you guys liked that holy cat! next on my list should be a little different but let's see where my mood takes me ^^
Thank you for stopping by and for Al the support guys!
Hopefully by next eek, I can finally make myself banner and a template to work with. I don't plan to go home on the weekends so hopefully that gives me time to really rest, recuperate and draw after this hell weekend I had at my cousin's house. I'll see you guys later, yeah? Always be safe everyone ^^
