I'm much happier with this more cartoony version of Kobold Kiiro - now all I have to do is figure out how to draw them "on model" consistently. Ha, yeah good luck with that 😂

Kobold Kiiro: a yellow & gold furry dragon-like creature with an opossum aspect, feathery wings and a fluffy striped tail, rainbow claws, and rounded rainbow horns. They're wearing square glasses, silver earrings and a scarf with purple, yellow, black and cream colored designs.

Wait... for a second there I thought these were different sized breeds of rats, like poodles come in "standard," "miniature" and "toy" sizes, but these 3 are really just different ages, right???

and here's a timelapse:

The more I worked on this, the more things I found to dislike about it, and the more time I was spending trying to get it to look "right" - I eventually decided to just stop fiddling and get to work on the next iteration

TURQUOISE?! This is a fantastic color scheme ❤️‍🔥

I had this idea the other day that wouldn't leave me alone until I drew it: what if Kiiro was actually more like a Kobold? I freaking love Kobolds, so yeah, here we go...

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 10

that's fair
I'm sure a lot of us are in that boat with you

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 10

It does, it really does 🥰

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 10

show me anything you draw that doesn't look good and then we can talk about whether it looks right or not - an impossible task, I say

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 10

Aaaaahhh! Blepp is an *excellent* name for a Kobold 😍😍 and these portraits turned out so nice

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 9

mm yeah, I can see that being part of it too

I've been experimenting with an overhead camera to record my process because I have an irrational fear of being accused of using AI...

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 7

these extreme expressions are so much fun! 🤩

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 7

I'm even more impressed by all the lettering than I am impressed by how many different snacks are stuffed in such a small space - not even mentioning all the great puns

🌟Keirin Finch🌟 @kiiroarts.com · Sep 7

omg this is so cute and wholesome - I love a good hug with a rimlight 😍

I love the way you transition between different shades of "black" to render the fur 😍
