This is a practice badge I did myself. The bunny is the playful, omg there is so much fun giggle, side of me that comes to life at fur cons. The sloth is the day to day me that wants the stupid to go away and let me sleep.
I did this one with the crayola pencils. I like how vivid the colors are but they can be limiting and are so so on the blending.
I ran into some difficulty with my badges tonight. When drawing an animal with dark fur how do u make the details stand out? I think I did ok but was hoping someone out there had some advice.
I’m using my friends fursonas to practice my badge making. Here are two of them.
I find myself wishing I was putting pencil to pad all the time. I draw on my breaks, during my lunch, when I get home before my honey.
I decided I’m going to start taking commissions soon but I have to spend some time setting that up.
We all know the saying. It’s mostly right. Which means sitting down with your art everyday. Most of the week I work in colored pencils but once a week I work on the iPad to throw my hat into the derby. Shirt.woot.com has a contest every week for T-shirt designs. It gives me a goal, a time frame, and a topic of someone else’s choosing.

Not always my best work but always good practice.
