Looking at the official art shared in the Discord of Holozing I came across this character whose design I really liked.

For this design I decided to use a Pokémon called Umbreon as a model, which belongs to the Pokémon franchise, since the design is a bit similar to this one.

By the way, I also want to mention that all the designs I've created so far are an artistic exploration of styles and techniques, utilizing everything I've learned in my art classes.

Although I don't consider myself an expert, I hope to improve and find a unique art style while we have fun together. The time will come when I can transfer all this knowledge to digital form. I'm currently saving up for a graphics tablet. I recently got a very basic PC, and now I'm saving up to buy that, and I hope to start drawing digitally.

REFERENCE / ORIGINAL ART FROM UMBREON

I was so inspired that I didn't realize that by making the drawing I was practically copying the drawing, and I completely forgot that I had to make a special design.

Then, I make corrections and use graphite to create the base for her fur. Following the reference image, I add the basket and the community logo to give it that personalization I really like.

Then, with charcoal, I begin to give it more depth. The charcoal must be prepared before use and achieve the desired effect.

Once we've finished defining her fur and the other details within the artwork, we'll begin to color the entire design.

Truthfully, the colors or markers I used weren't ideal, as they clashed with the charcoal coloring, but hey, I'd already invested too much time into it to go back or start over.

I added details like fur, trying to be as faithful to the character as possible because the concept is really cool, and I really liked it.

Then, using India ink, I highlighted the essential details and erased what we weren't going to use in the final design. It's a bit tricky to draw with India ink, as it sometimes tends to run and ruin the design. However, you have to be careful.

Coloring by applying base colors and adding details to each area, using pastel yellow or cream tones and blue-black, leaving blank spaces. I'll use this to show the light reflecting off the fur.

And we also added color to the vegetation areas using a variety of tones. Just look at those details of light and dark that were added to the basket, the shadow it casts, and the vegetation. I'm truly proud of having achieved these results.
