Creator-Guilds Contest Catgirl (Nekomimi) Entry!

Cover Page.jpg

Here to introduce you my very old OC, Katie Romuro!

Wow I can't believe I remember her full name, I made her 11 years ago! And since @aranda decided to make a catgirl drawing challenge :

I thought it would be nice to revive one of my few first original character, who I made when I was 9. Oh if only there was an old drawing I could show right now, the difference would be amazing to see. Sadly, all my old drawings are at home.
Anyway, Katie is a very special kind of catgirl, her cat ears change based on the type of emotions she feels!

She had like a bunch more for each emotion. I even made list last time. She and a few other characters were in this story called Cat Family and I made so many of the series. It never got an ending because I was still a kid and didn't know what I was doing XD Still, it was really fun times, and if I ever got the chance I'll definitely show the comic books here.

STEP BY STEP DRAWING PROCESS

STEP 1 : SKETCH

Sketched out the 3 different emotions that Katie can feel.

STEP 2 : OUTLINING

Tried a different kind of outlining here, where the end points of the lines are darker than the rest.

STEP 3 : SHADING

I determined the light source and started colouring in grayscale first. To be honest I like this version more than the coloured one ^^

STEP 4 : COLOURING

This time, the way colouring style I tried out in my previous tutorial didn't quite work out. So further investigation is required of this colouring style XD
