#05 cats

Here comes the fun part: fitting in the rest of the prompts and meshing them with the existing bits Initially I had intended on sticking very strictly with the pinks and reds for Umbridge, but when I set down a very light layer of my red-gray color and felt like it was just going to be too much pink and everything would blend together entirely too much. While I am sure no one would be to terribly surprised for this woman to have a shocking pink patronus, I went with the more traditional colors but did add another layer of the red-gray to pull the color story together. I had considered doodling a couple of her signature cat plates but that did not feel right and I instead went with her feline patronus perched upon her shoulders for this prompt. There was no line art at first and I almost left it that way but the shape and especially face of the cat was not all that well defined so I took my thinnest 0.03 pink Copic multiliner and outlined things a bit before layering another few layers of the light blues to mute the lineart just a tad to help maintain the glow effect.

Colorless blenders are miracle workers, truly.

Text Cut: all you lovely supportive people ♥

I don't know art terms clearly; regardless, I am always at a loss for words at your drawing skills, Kath. JEEEZE. Mad-Eye especially...he's so UWU ugh

And thank you for the YouTuber suggestions, I am 100000% checking those out.

Thank you. After having not picked up my pencils and markers for so long, it really feels good to just dive right back into things and with such rich characters to play around with.

You are most welcome! I have a whole bunch of content creators I keep up with if you ever want some more but I find them the most relaxing and encouraging particularly because they will share their mistakes during the process and especially DrawingwiffWaffles will explain her choices and it is SO helpful.

Thank you, Alicia I keep flip flopping on which is my favorite but it MIGHT be here? Ironic considering she is the character in HP I love to hate the MOST - or maybe that isn't ironic at all and is rather on brand
