Hi friends!

Since December is the time of New Year's miracles, then fabulous unusual creatures will prevail in my drawings

It was my art idea on amazing Steemit contest, dedicated by a beauty of Clouds

I imagined a story where there is a certain magical entity that creates clouds and sends them float across the sky

Once upon a time I had in my papers an old sketch made a long time ago...

I have long wanted to portray my cat Nikita in the image of some unusual fairy-tale creature

So I will implement it.

Choose a nice color palette which I want to use in my artwork

Yes, I decided to draw it in Sketchbook Pro

The color palette in it is typed in this editor

I liked this color combination

I select a basic colors for the character and the foreground from a mixture of selected colors

Yes, I decided to change the turn of the cat's head, according to the story

Then I draw gradient background

I want the character to stand out from the background, but at the same time blend in with it.

At this step I sketch a silhouettes of clouds the space below

Detalization of the character and his creations

Work with background - add some color shades in a sky & details on ground

And this is how he creates clouds!

Painting rock's scratch

Adding the wings shadow & objects under clouds cover

The last detail is a magic amulet around the cat's neck to make it look like a real wizard

And a little romantic mood surrounded by the way I love

And finally color correction

Yes, I liked how it turned out!
And, most importantly, my cat is now captured in the picture, he-he!)))

I hope you'll like this story)

Thanks for your attention to my tutorials

Regards
