Looks like someone is having fun with some wolf foot paws.
This is a toony style full detail YCH (Your-Character-Here) commission for Otto042 on Twitter who won a YCH auction I had on another site. I'll show you the process of what I did. Let's get started. :)

Canvas Prep/Rough Sketch
Layers Used:
Canvas Background layer
Rough Sketch layer
I start off with sketching out rough shapes for the characters and poses.
Fine Sketch
Layers Used:
Fine Sketch layer
After getting the rough sketches for the characters, I go back over them with a finer sketch.
Then this was what was presented for the auction. (I just made a temporary layer underneath the fine sketch layer, color in with the same blue color as the sketches, then turn the layer's opacity to 50%.)
After a client was determined through the YCH auction, I edited the YCH placeholder character to edit in the details of the winner.
Lineart
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Lineart layer
After the fine sketch, I lineart over them.
Base Color
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Base Color layer
Then I use the contiguous "wizard" tool to select all areas outside of the characters' parameters, invert the selection, then fill in with a neutral color base.
Primary Color
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Colors -> Primary Color layer
I carefully draw in the primary colors of the characters making sure not to overlap colors where they shouldn't.
Then I mask the color folder down to the base color layer.
Detail Color
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Color Folder -> Detail Folder -> (Folder's color layers)
I add in the characters' other color details in their respective folders.
Shadows
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Shadows layer (Layer Blending Mode: Grain Merge; Opacity: 50%)
Then add in the shadows...
Highlights
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Highlights layer (Opacity: 75%)
...then the highlights...
Backlights
Layers Used:
Foreground Folder -> Backlights layer (Layer Blending Mode: Soft Light)
...then the backlights.
Background/Final Check/Final Result
Layers Used:
Canvas Background layer
Background Shadows layer
(Various layers)
Here, I whiten the canvas background, and I add in a pattern and some shadow in the background folder. Finally, I check over the drawing for any missing details or stuff I need to change.
Then the drawing is complete!
Enjoy the pic (as much as Otto enjoy's Bleux's paws lol)!
