Illustration: Panda Roux for my grand-nephew


 My nephew's sons wanted me to make drawings for them for Christmas this year. They requested dinosaurs (and they will get them for their birthdays next year) but I decided to surprise them with something unexpected. After a trip to the zoo, the oldest was obsessed with Red Pandas and the youngest is obsessed with bugs so I'll give them prints of those things instead. 

I haven't done a procreate drawing all year! I had been doing at least one drawing a month but I just don't have the time and constant interuptions have made it impossible. Hopefully I can get back on track. I am not really happy with how I do hair and fur in colour artwork so far. This is better than my normal but I think I am missing something I can't put a finger on.

That turned out pretty nice! All that fur must have been a pain in the ass. I bet he really liked it! How kind of you! Very photographic with the blurred background.

I hope he does, it will be a Christmas gift. No danger of him seeing it first though! (He is 6) The fur was time consuming but I don't hate it so that is something!
