Good night or good morning everyone, hope u all doing great.

So this time I tried something kinda different. I got inspired by the Forest Healer and Miu, that cute lil creature that’s somehow both sweet and mysterious. I ended up mixing both ideas and added this fluffy hat thingy ‘cause it looked way too adorable to skip lol.

Tbh this piece was harder than I expected. I started the sketch in Corel Painter, then moved it to Photoshop for the details and final touches. The anime style isn’t something I usually do, so yeah .... This was a real challenge for me. Keeping the lines clean while still making them feel alive took me quite a while ngl.

But honestly, it was fun pushing myself out of my comfort zone. I didn’t even use that many tools, just a textured brush and the smudge tool, that’s it. It was kinda cool seeing how much you can do with so little. It’s not perfect, but that’s kinda what I like about it😌😁.

The process was intense but a lot of fun. I also love the contrast in this piece, the cute character sipping a milkshake in this sorta dark background. It gives off this calm yet mysterious vibe, which is exactly what I wanted to capture. Like, something cozy but with a tiny spark of fantasy.

Oh and the milkshake! That part was sooo fun to paint. I wanted it to look tasty, shiny, and full of textures, almost like you could actually grab it. Those small details made me enjoy the whole process way more. I felt like drinking one. ahahhah

In the end, it took time, but I really liked how it turned out. Zingtober’s all about exploring and having fun, right? So yeah, this one was a slow but sweet ride

Thank you very much for taking the time to view my work.

A while ago I was looking for this little shark you see down here 🦈. It’s really special to me. I won it a long time ago here, n it was done by a person many years ago but also I consider a GREAT GREAT GREAT FRIEND now n who does amazing work , very talented🤗.
