🐾1️⃣ My first Artfight attack:Rubberstar from Caro_KJ artfight.net/~Caro_KJ Loved the name of this OC and the fun splotchy pelt~😸 ‼️NB! This is my old-style (not yet applied what I've been learning recently) 😼🎨Come challenge me at artfight.net/~syanzae~ #ShareMyAttack2026 #artfight2026 #teammystery
Here's the sketch practices (consolidating the one cat art guide I've started with and am still using so far~) and ref draft for Tunarose~
How long can you “draw a lot” without actually getting better? Embarrassed to admit correcting this so late...but you know..it might be for the best... I've been stacking up key writing and marketing biz skills since then Here's Day 6: The Best Reality Check I had about my Progress in Drawing Cats
Here were some manual sketches: the draft before the ref sheet! and consolidated cat art practice with Sharkleap~
Which matters more: finding the best guide or finishing your first sketch? Your 1st learning resource doesn't have to be perfect to be effective. Also..revealing my first finished character for this year's @artfight.net !! Follow and come for friendly fires/attacks/revenges~ artfight.net/~syanzae
I think I never shared a drawing sheet of some old/before style cat doodles that I would lazily and limitedly draw (from lack of knowing cat anatomy and proportions) here it is just in case maybe I never posted?
The most underrated drawing skill for beginners: Choosing ONE resource and ignoring the rest.
If you didn't already know...I am also documenting weekly check-ins of my cat art journey at my Substack: Art Diary of Zae...tho...I'm 2 weeks late in sharing...but nonethelss..here's the first! open.substack.com/pub/artdiary...
open.substack.comImpromptu Imperfect Intro!What's been going on (true to being perfectly imperfect), What I've learnt so far and What's upcoming!
More Tunarose!! Yes it's for none other than #artfight2026~ come attack at: artfight.net/~syanzae
Aiming to draw at least 31+ cats this artfight! What's YOUR GOAL this #artfight2026? Join me at artfight.net/~syanzae~ @artfight.net Check out my 😸OC refs below👇 #artfight #artfight2026 #teammystery
I know this was supposed to be done during prep BEFORE artfight began...but uh...can I still do this? @artfight.net
ok OOPs ever since I drew the old style version, I realized I didn't make his "2-fin" side markings properly for the latest ref sheet! here it is updated 🙀 artfight.net/character/99... hope no one saved it offline and working on an atk with the old ref....

@artfight.net Hey...I'm having trouble accepting invite... do you mind adding me directly? (my discord username is zaesyan (yes it's flipped bc the original username account got deleted recently...bc the email wasn't working well)
dratz....I realized I forgot to properly show the 2 "fin-like" slashes of Sharkleap's back capey thing... the rather fixed anatomy ref sheet only has one "fin" 😿
Here’s a rendered, polished, and shaded version of my OC, Sharkleap, featured on my ArtFight. Note: this is my old style, not what I’m currently learning and applying in drawing cat art. Come join ArtFight and attack at artfight.net/~syanzae. #artfight2026 #teammystery #digitalart #artfight #cat
