Hello creative community,
I think I had never drawn a rooster character yet so I made one for the 100 Days Of Drawing Challenge. The rooster is quite challenging for me to turn into a character and much so an archer. The end is a rooster archer. Interesting.
This is Mateo the archer rooster from the same neighborhood as David the duck. Mateo is playing with his bow in the woods and is having fun with the experience. The bow is new which he received as a gift. From a distance he heard something that caught his attention. Could it be a dangerous creature lurking? Mateo held a tight grip on the bow anticipating what could appear from the bushes.
Here are some progress photos :
The rough sketch is important as this puts most details you like in place
Here there is a slight change on the final line drawing which is the direction of the eyes
The base colors dominated by this shade of red typical of the rooster I had in mind
Finally don't forget about the highlights and shadows. Paying careful attention to the light source
Practice helps us get better each time we try. That is the aim of
