Please, feel free to make comments and critics, it’s always useful : )

Very cute - but wait is he fishing for bunnies?
As he doesn’t have a hook on his fishing rod, I think it’s just a pretext to hang around a pond on a sunny Saturday.
Many thanks to all of you !
Really a good example of Krita work. Can you show some wip or something about the proccess? if this is for business it would be cool to know more about this. Maybe and interview in the Krita.org? Awesome result. I love it.
Thank you !
This is a promotional illustration for a book that will be published somewhere in 2021.
And as for the interview, I would be very honored
I didn’t record the process this time, so here’s a sort of small making of :
First, I established the composition and values on a thumbnail. It is also used to check my values throughout the process, that’s why it’s a very important step.
Then I made a sketch to get an overview of the different elements. it doesn’t matter if it’s very messy, it won’t be visible at the end.
Here’s the local colors. Everything is flat at this stage, so I can concentrate on refining shapes.
After that, the process is pretty straightforward for each element. There I can break down the lighting, make color changes and so on… (Well, in reality layers are not named properly at all there it’s just for demonstration purposes :D)
I’m still not comfortable enough to do everything on one layer. So I’m breaking down the lighting based on real life references, it’s interesting to see how it works. Here’s an example with the pond :
I used these brushes on about 95% of the picture :
-Basic_square_03 : A solid rectangle brush for blocking in. I can’t remenber where it come from.
-Charcoal_11c : My new favorite, also used for general shapes. It comes from a beta version of RamonM’s Charcoal brush pack
-Charcoal_01 : Same brush pack as above, but in the official one this time. Really nice for detailling.
-Blender_structures : A messy blender brush, from the old Muses brush pack (There is a 2019 version of this pack, I should update my brushes)
That’s pretty much it. : )
ps : My English isn’t great all the time, so if there’s something that doesn’t seem clear, don’t hesitate to ask !
Thank you!
Beautiful!
Responds in very well with children’s book!
Very nice character design & color palette!
Hello, I love this kind of drawing style. What do we call it and where can I find some tutorial on drawing style like this? Thank you!
Thanks !
I don’t know what to call it, but I’ve tried to reproduce a sort of pastel/pencil drawing style, if that can help.
As I mentioned above, RamonM has created a great charcoals brush pack. They were very useful
Lovely work, the color pallet is clean and vibrant.
that light and color situation is awesome… good job
