Inktober 52: Week 18 – Unboxing a Cat

Inktober 52 from the year 2021, week 18. I'm still stuck to the past and will be, for a long time, as I only yesterday draw the first idea from the 2017 prompt list. Or actually last as it was the last day but first from that list. This is like idea shopping, I'm picking the easiest ones first and by the end of this or next year, there will be only the hard ones left. But hopefully I will by then be somewhat better in drawing. Or not but I guess we'll see.

I'm not yet fed up with drawing with my tablet. Actually I have lots and lots of ideas which I want to try, are they any good, that also remains to be seen. But as I've already bragged in my previous post, I have a new pen, so playing with it is so gratifying that I have a blind spot when it comes to seeing my mistakes.

It's cool because it's more accurate than the soft tip pen that has no batteries, but the tip is really slippery so drawing a relatively straight line without any help from the Sketchbook app is really hard. Unless I draw it really quickly which also sucks unless I want to draw something that doesn't need to be that accurately drawn.

Okay so I chose a cat from last years Inktober 52 list.

As you can see, I've used symmetry tool, a lot, like in the Yin Yang drawing, but more. This was drawn almost entirely with it and perhaps I overdid the lines and figures because I was so into it. A good thing that I got that out of my system though.

Here are my models. Perhaps I took some artistic liberties when drawing the cat. At leas Jörö and Amanda aren't as fat as the symmetry cat.

Perhaps also Jörö here is way more cuter too. It's obvious that I didn't quite get the whole cuteness factor included in to my drawing.

Amanda in the box is super duper fluffy furry cutie pie.

I tried to get a series of photos of unboxing a cat but as Amanda is really self conscious about any camera, I couldn't get a sharp photo and at the end missed completely when Amanda unboxed herself.

So there were my cats.

Can't wait for my ticks.
