After I finished the comic strip for Copic Award as shown in the previous post, I felt more confident drawing animals. So I started this cat illustration series called "The Two of Us" on Sept. 1st and it's all about my two cats Lonie and Snuggle Puff, and them talking.

I'm very excited that I was able to to come up with daily illustration after a week, so I started an Instagram account to share them. And since here it seems too much to post just one per day, so here's the first 5. Tomorrow will post 6-10, and so on.

Illustrations are all done in Copic multiliner on A4 size cardstock. I re-use photos for Instagram here to make it easier to share since I haven't scanned anything.

I forgot to post this! I did this for Copic Award this year and submitted on August 28th. It took me a couple months to just think about what to draw, and I'm glad that I finished it all before deadline on Sept 15!

Because after my pencil sketch's done, I was afraid to ink directly on it for possible mistakes. So thank goodness my light pad's powerful light, it was able to project my very light pencil outline through such a thick 300series Bristol drawing paper! So I traced and inked on a new sheet. 

And then after successfully inking, I was afraid to make coloring mistakes directly on my ink sheet, too, so I pulled another new sheet again and color on top of the ink sheet through light pad. And of course I'm not experienced with coloring comic strips, so mistakes did come in and this whole process took...f o r e v e r.

Also this size is bigger than 11x16 inches, it wouldn't fit my scanner, so I can only take a picture.
