Portrait Painting

Portrait painting is quite a skill! So is being able to sit still for a portrait painting. Because you could be spending that time eating snacks, y'know?

 

It’s Spring, Color a Kite (And Pups!)

It’s trying to be spring! Which means if it stops being 40 degrees outside where I live, I could fly a kite! But since I also don’t have a kite, instead I drew the Princess Pups on a kite flying adventure as one of this month’s coloring pages!

Some of the pups know how to fly a kite well enough

For this month’s second coloring page, I took some of the reference art that I created for the Puppy Mech from the current storyline and cleaned it up for prime coloring fun! Last month’s coloring page using the cover art lacks the lumpy puppy mech feet because they’re behind the Princess Pups. These feet are a delight and need to be colored by you!

Be sure to visit the coloring pages section to grab these new pages and any other coloring pages you might have missed for all those windy days that would just eat your kite anyway 🙂

I also did a swell time lapse of the kite flying coloring page! You’ll see more than one color while inking here because I was trying to keep from getting lost in some separate layering I did. Sometimes I get distracted and check how far along the time lapse is as I work on it. But overall, I really like this feature of Clip Studio Pro!

Space Based Coloring Pages?!

Dang, January is gone! It’s February which always makes me think of space adventures! And maybe chocolate too? This month’s got a special space themed treat for my latest coloring pages! First up, the Space Pups make their coloring pages debut, high-fiving in zero gravity.

Spacey siblings Star Pup and Moon Pup give each other floaty high-fives!

I’m also excited to start working on a longer Princess Pups story that I’ve been wanting to do for a long time! I’m so excited that I’m leaking the line art for the cover page as a coloring page just for you! In the Princess Pups’ next big adventure, they encounter…a mech?!? This story will be at least 16 pages and focus on our good friend Corgi Pup. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of my mini-comic length storylines and I’m not going to hold back on the robo mech goodness!

The lineart for the cover of Mega Mech Mishap, ready for your coloring input!

Make sure to download these and other rad coloring pages for your chill coloring time over in the coloring pages section!

On top of that, I’ve updated my settings in Clip Studio Pro (the program where I draw my comics and digital art) to save timelapse recordings as I work. They look really neat! Here’s a 15 second timelapse of the Space Pups coloring page from initial rough sketch to final line art!

Plushie Themed Coloring Goodness!

New month, New Year, and also new Princess Pups coloring pages for you to enjoy!

This month, I asked my kiddo what would be a good coloring page. He gave me the idea to have the pups playing with plushie versions of themselves based on a cover I did for the first Princess Pups Minis comic that I collected!

I’m still not entirely sure why I drew them all staring at smaller plush versions of themselves when I didn’t have a comic involving plush versions of the Pups going into the collection…but that’s another story!

Since Valentine’s Day is next month, the first coloring page has TeaCup Pup giving Fluff Pup an early Valentine plushie present! Fluff Pup looks pleased as punch!

TeaCup Pup uses her magic scepter to summon a swell plush Fluff Pup!

In this month’s other coloring page, Corgi Pup, Pug Pup, and Scruffy Pup are also all enjoying plushies! However…Scruffy Pup seems to have a goat plushie instead of a pup plushie!

Scruffy Pup, Corgi Pup and Pug Pup enjoy plushie party time too!

You can nab these and TONS of other coloring pages over in the Coloring Pages section of the site!

Cookie Based Coloring Fun!

The month (and year!) are almost over, but there’s still time to enjoy coloring! This month’s coloring pages are cookie themed just like the most recent comic! While Fluff Pup didn’t get a chance to decorate cookies shaped like her and the other pups, you’re able to via your favorite coloring instrument!

In the other coloring page I drew for this month, we have Scruffy Pup going all out with her decorating. She’s probably only going to decorate two cookies total since she seems to be using up all of the frosting. TeaCup Pup is a big aghast at this, it seems!
