I showed it to Kaz and he was okay with me putting it on the Booru. Rather pleased at that, though if it gets taken down by mods, I’ll understand. It’s pretty much the furthest edge you can get without being totally totally NSFW.
Anyway, so I came across Starfighter’s work while looking for a Rajirra or Katia to draw, and darned if he doesn’t say right there on his FA page that he’s fine with others finishing/coloring his sketches. So I took him up on it!
I wouldn’t say I’m GOOD at linework/inking. Just that I’m getting better. I kept most of the sketch in behind my lines here as I was planning to go truly furry with it, and some sketchy lines enhance that I think.
I wanted to experiment with this one, so I tried some colored gradient shading on her boobs and a bit of belly. The result was less than optimal. Interesting, but naaa… It’s not just that I only did the boobs and belly so they pop out as 3d on a flat cat – but the color just is wrong and the gradient is TOO smooth. Someone said they look like eggs. (They do!) But it was funny so I’ll show it here anyway.
No, instead I went for 2 level hard-shading. This is an in-progress point. I had the background basically added and most of the colors. But I wanted it more furry than this so I wasn’t done yet.
And here’s the final. I got some suggestions – mostly on the shadow and there’s a VERY slight pink on the nipples. Hopefully almost imperceptible.
That’s it. Starfighter’s Rajirra. She thicc. I also learned a new acronym! BFCT.
There will undoubtedly be more of similar proportions to come. Starfighter has more! Hehehehehehhhh. I’m calling this one nsfw, because it isn’t. Nothing is obviously showing, but, let’s be honest, you don’t want to use this as a screen-saver at work.
On those hot summer mornings, isn’t it glorious to own an invisibility cloak? Just find a nice shady park bench, get totally naked, and let the cooling breeze waft over your entire body without a care in the world.
But… you know… you do need the hood on to activate the invisibility. You DO have the hood on, don’t you, Katia? Katia???
I think I saw it on a 4chan thread. I thought it was awfully cute – particularly in how her boobies weren’t drawn gigantic and the cute face. I did an inking on this one though. I don’t usually but there was too much scratchylines on it so I had to kinda start from scratch.
For flat colors, I stuck with traditional. I also used my “wood” technique I learned on the Sashimi-Rajirra pic on the bench here too. Technically the “purple” shade at the bottom should be on a separate layer. I kinda screwed that up a little. But not a big deal.
I had a nice gradient sky, photoshopped ground and a photoshop-create 3d tree I was going to use as is. But I showed it to someone and they thought the background looked too realistic. So I Filtered it and I have to admit it probably blends with a cartoon character better this way.
Okay, Shade Time! Nothing terribly special there. For the most part I have her in shade, so there’s really just edges where the sun falls – and a few dappled spots around her head and shoulders. The 2nd level darker shade I kept simple and sharp as well. I also made this censored version for the Prequel booru.
So I made up the little vignette at the top. She looks so happy and cool here. But she think’s she’s invisible and she’s not. Which she’ll soon discover. Actually that’s classic Kaz humor there. A happy character who the audience knows is about to fail and fail hard. But – for right this moment, she’s peacefully oblivious thinking her idea is the Best Idea Ever!
OH! I almost forgot! Someone said they liked her body but didn’t like her head/face. No, I get that – though I like em both just fine! So for those people, here’s an early edit I did to fix that problem.
Yup, another color job. But if you like NSFW this should be right up your alley. And if you like feline style, even better. Found another drawing by Guoh that I wanted to color, but this time I wanted to stretch my comfort zone a bit. Not just in the source material but in some techniques that I’ve not really tried before.
Also I’m going to have some fun with this one. Reverse Order sorta!
There’s partial shading. Still, you can pretty much tell where it’s going. And yeah, it’s going all-the-way. Hopefully though you can see I’m using a furry-style brush here. I’ve not really done that before. Now layering on my standard shading…
A few more levels of shading there obviouisly. THose were regulare brushes but with the fur brushes ‘behind” them I’m hopeful it will still look sorta furry. Obviously I like the scalies with all those kobolds I did, but a nice soft kitty is good too.
Okay, I can’t keep the colors off forever. Don’t worry, this is just the flat colors with shading over it. And yeah.. pink bits.
Lines in place and it’s almost done. But he drew here left leg kinda wonky. No sweat, I figured out JUST how to hide it…
Don’t like her leg? Why, put a wrinkled bedsheet over it! 🙂 It was amazing how closely this bed fit the wonkyness on her leg. I added a filter to the bed and headboard to make them a bit less realistically jarring. I hope. But no, not done yet. All finishes must end with eyelights!!! It’s what brings them to life!
Okay, you may notice some other highlights besides her eyes. 0.0 (or should I say ( . )( . )?)
Anyway, that’s it. But I did do some pretty heavy work on this, especially given the original sketch. No ding on Guoh EVER. He certainly didn’t expect someone would color this I’m sure. But just to set the record straight, THIS is the original Guoh sketch I started with. I do put effort into these, I assure you!
Just a bit hotter version of Fitia Managan. Just after a workout you get very sweaty… and apparently a bit perky. Again, drawn by Raydio but the sweat and bumps were not in his gameplan. That’s my payment right there!
An anyone who wants to complain about sweat on fur or off model boobs is welcome to do so. I totally understand. Just don’t care all that much.
