Creating black and white artwork is a challenge, as you determine the light and dark values of an object to convey the atmosphere of the environment within the artwork. My Zingtober post, using the DEER prompt, depicts a forest setting with large trees and a meadow where Shinaara gathers with deer grazing in a meadow in the middle of the forest...

The prompt for day 3 was Crown, and I didn’t want to draw the typical king’s crown that’s always depicted. So I called upon our usual protagonist—the beautiful Forest Healer, with her power to heal nature. This character always wears a headband made of roots and leaves, but I imagined a more elevated version, where her head is adorned with a lovely crown of flowers, leaves, and clovers—her signature plant. I created the entire drawing in Photoshop, starting from an initial sketch and laying down the structural foundation. Little by little, I added colors and details, always staying within a black-and-white color scheme...

I had no plans to participate fully in inktober this year, maybe I would've picked a few prompts that resonated with me and drew something in my sketchbook until I saw the zingtober announcement by the
@holozing account. I read through the participation rules and was very happy with how considerate it is this year, so I decided I was going to enter with digital paintings so here's my first entry. Nara is a very beautiful deer with cute flowers on her cheeks, tail and horns. Here, she's standing majestically in the forest with bright lights hitting her back, I've never done...

Zingtober Day 5: Deer - Naara deer eating grass accompanied by a small Chirple 🦌
Well, to begin with, my idea was for the main character of the work in this case (Naara) to be right in the center of my canvas. In this case, I drew the deer standing in the middle of the forest with her head down while eating some acorns from the ground. Once I finished my sketch, I moved straight on to the coloring process. For the body of the deer (Naara), I used slightly darker gray tones. I began by creating some volume with my airbrush brush, defining the deer's legs, the shape of its head, its muzzle, ears, and so on...

I made my drawing on white cardboard, I made Verdion little by little, first the sketch of his figure to know how I was going to put each of the accessories on him like the hat, the crow mask, the giant black tunic, also some gloves, small bags and a large staff with the Zing symbol. Since I used three types of black marker, I start with the thinnest marker to make simple lines that outline my entire drawing. So I start with the face, adding each detail I drew earlier, like the crow mask. One thing I do is make its eye visible through the mask's glass...

It’s day 5 of Zingtober and the prompt is “Deer”. So I decided to draw the beautiful Naara for this round. I sketched Naara and to make her look more beautiful I decided to draw some accessories. I started with drawing earrings and then drew a necklace. The two last photos are the final result but I couldn’t choose among them so I share both of them. I like the one without the sparkles better because the focus would be on the Naara but I somehow like the one with sparkles because it...

The theme for day 5 is Deer, so we will use Naara and Shinaara. Although it is not a reference, it is part of where the idea for this illustration came from. There is a part of the movie where Bambi goes out to eat with his mother, and I wanted to do something just as cute as that. Of course, this time without hunters, haha. Before I begin... I had many, many doubts about how to approach this. Should I use a style that emulates ink? Should I make a drawing that emulates pencil? The idea of doing it traditionally still seemed better to me, but it has certain disadvantages. I had to make a color drawing and then convert it to grayscale. It would have been easier, but I feel like I would be...

I sketch the structure, outline and shape of each creature or healer. To execute it, for the most part, I start by making some geometrical figures, and from there, I give body and shape to each creation. I continued applying various shades of brown to give my drawing depth and volume. I also highlighted the edges with a black pencil and a pen...

I've drawn Shinaara in human form a couple of times, but it's the first time I'm drawing him as the original form - a deer. It's somewhat odd for me to draw animals since I'm so used to drawing humanoid characters, even if it's a shot of them having weird magic or even limbs, but I really had a lot of fun going back to the roots of drawing a character and drawing them in their original form this time, in which case it was a deer - the theme for today's Zingtober haha...

I started the piece with a rough sketch to define Naara’s pose and the general composition. I wanted to ensure her stance conveyed gentleness and wonder, with her gaze naturally leading toward the moon. At this stage, I played with shapes and proportions until I captured that delicate and emotional look I was aiming for. Once I had the sketch ready, I moved on to the line art. This part required precision and patience, especially with her antlers and the floral details. Clean, flowing lines helped give Naara’s form a sense of softness and movement, setting the stage for the rest of the illustration...
