Auserr: I drew a Kat! I was inspired by the zen Katia that Kaz posted on twitter yesterday. I'm very new to drawing (only been doing it for about a month). And this is like my 3rd drawing done digitally. So any advice/critique is welcome!

Azmeltosh: @Auserr: Howd you gey that good in a month Ive been doing this for years and i still suck
also that reminds me i was doing one of katia and quill meditating but i needed to stop since i didnt have any quill references and the site was down

Auserr: @Azmeltosh: I think your drawings are good! What I did was practice re-drawing comic panels and some of Kaz's old commissions a bunch. Kaz sometimes streams drawing too which I found helped me a lot. This drawing took me a quite few hours to do. I don't know that'd I'd call myself good yet, but thanks!

Hope you finish the one with Katia and Quill meditating, I'd like to see it.

kfpTigress_Simp: Inner peace

hexTerminator: i like the accuracy of the (sideburns¿? muttonchops¿? weird kitty beard¿?) i can never get it quite right in my own drawings

Auserr: @hexTerminator: Thanks! And yeah, I struggled with them for a while too. I have only recently been able to make sort of ok ones.

Kazerad: :D I love this, the art of your haiku has come full circle.

Auserr: @Kazerad: Thanks Kaz, it means a lot!

Azmeltosh: what was the haiku?

Auserr: @Azmeltosh: Just a silly thing I wrote, I was kind of in disbelief when I saw Kaz used it.

Azmeltosh: @Auserr: lol thats great dude

its nice that kaz tries to avoid this though. speaking of merch kaz wont make, i think i have the plush katia head design down. if it pans out ill upload it to the booru. i still need to get the rest done but that should be simpler. im trying to get it all done before the 27th
i would love suggestions of which character i should do next. right now im between alice's shanghai doll from touhou or the ebil bat fidget from elysian tail

Azmeltosh: I just realized I keep taking your art and making it about mine I'm sorry

Auserr: @Azmeltosh: Don't worry about it! The fact some people saw it and actually liked it enough to comment is really cool. I didn't think I could do that.
As for the plush, Katia's head is fucking huge. So yeah, your probably on the home stretch with that finished. I look forward to seeing it! Also I don't think you really need suggestions, you've got two good plush candidates lined up already.

TempIntel: peaceful thoughts...relax... fire about to engulf me... ahhh.

Mahyar: I saw this picture and suddenly 12 O’Clock by Vangelis started playing in my head

Mahyar: I’ve always wondered how so many artists draw Katia with that hard-edged, pixel-like style.

Auserr: @Mahyar: I used GraphicsGale, it's what Kaz uses to make the comic. Plus it's free!
