Dash Tag Challenge - Day 4 (SUPER Late Edition)!

*Sighs*
So... uh...
I forgot to post again, didn't I?
I guess watching a movie and going swimming is a bit distracting... at least for me. Eheheh...
This wasn't even doing it late. This was downright forgetting until something Sarah sent reminded me (So Sarah, you're my posting lifesaver, XD)!


BUT YOU GUYS
I DREW AND COLORED THE ENTIRE DRAWING
AT LIKE, 12:00 AT NIGHT
SO I'M GONNA DO THIS POST, LATE OR NOT. XDD


So, without further ado... let's do this! Day... or, er, night... 4 of the Dash Tag challenge!!



I had to choose a pet super fast this time around, so I went ahead and chose Lizzy the raccoon!!

 Okay, so her description is obviously AJHQ having a bit of fun with alliteration... but still, I figured I could make something out of it, considering she seems to laugh a lot and likes lollipops! XD!
So here's the drawing I came up with!
I wanted to give Lizzy a laughing expression, and add a lollipop in there as well! So boom! XD!
I've had to mix colors for all of the pets I've drawn so far, and Lizzy was no different! I mixed yellow and pink to make the color of her heart patches, her nose, and the tops of her ears, and it turned out even better than I thought it would! I'd say it's pretty close to the real color!
Something I DID have trouble with, though, was the lightest color - you know, the one around her muzzle and bordering her heart patches? Yeah... I colored a bit too dark with the yellow, and I ended up going over it all with an eraser to make it lighter, then re-drawing the lines. I'm still not exactly satisfied with the color it is now - it's still way too yellow around the mouth and nose, but I really couldn't seem to fix it, so I suppose it'll have to do!
And can I just say that drawing that paw holding the lollipop was a lot harder to make than I thought? I had to test a couple styles until I found one I liked that didn't look too awkward! XD!
Anyways, I think Lizzy was my favorite to draw so far - I even actually drew her in basically one try, which is something I don't normally do!




Well, despite this being posted at such a late time, I really hope you guys enjoyed Day 4 of my challenge!! I'll try to post earlier next Saturday! But until then, I hope you guys remember to party hard, be creative, and keep drawing!! And don't forget... LIFE IS CINEMATIC!!! XD!
