My version of the Evolved Electric Rabbit

Yesterday, I came across a nice art contest, pre-launch of a new game within the Hive ecosystem. Even though I haven't drawn in a long time (neither traditional nor digital), it caught my attention. Maybe it's because of the striking appearance of its four initial characters, because to be honest, I still have to read the game's white paper to have a clear idea of it. I suppose that as the game progresses, the characters will also increase or the different states in which the four colorful animals will evolve: Rabbit, Raccoon, Whale and wolf with their respective characteristics.

What the challenge is about, if I understood correctly, is to draw the evolved or transformed version of one of them. I chose the Electric Rabbit, and I imagined what an adult or vitaminized version full of power would be like. I must confess that it was very difficult for me to use the latest version of Krita this time, and I had to settle for the sketch and paint it as I did as a child.

Without realizing it, I passed midnight, between frustrated trying to ink the hand-drawn sketch unsuccessfully and following old tutorials on digital art techniques and tool handling. In the end, I decided to go back to childhood with my daughter's colored pencils and double-tip markers, who still loves to draw even as an adult.

I confess, the first sketch turned out like a child who enters school, and my daughter got involved based on my idea to improve it. Of course, in the end, I wasn't going to miss the fun and did my work with joy, which I share with you snapshots of the process until the final art. It won't be a splendid work, but I had a lot of fun waking up that child that we all carry asleep inside.
