Royal Awakening | Page 8 - WIP
🕑 Added 2025-10-29 18:00:39 +0000 UTCSketch – This page is all about tenderness and infatuation — I wanted to capture that moment when the characters let themselves be swept away by passion in a romantic kiss.
Definitive Sketch – At first, I followed the same framing as the draft, but later — thanks to some helpful feedback — I decided to shift the tone slightly. I added a touch of euphoria and surprise, and reworked panels 1 and 2 to improve readability while keeping the camera orientation consistent.
Lineart – I don’t know how many of you have ever tried drawing a kiss between furry characters… but holy hell, it’s really hard! Hahaha
Flat Coloring – I always start flat coloring from the background, detailing only the parts that remain visible behind the characters. That way, I don’t waste time on areas that’ll be completely covered anyway.
Shadows and Highlights – This time I pushed the lighting a bit more: there are way more gradients (still rough, no blending tool!) and lots of extra highlights on their faces — they turned out way too cute.
If you have any questions about any of the steps, I'd be happy to answer them!

I love how you have done the flipping of panels, make it a more interesting lecture, becoming more fluid, building the climax, the way you have planned the lookings between them are great, and, of course, the final kiss is lovely and full of lustful tenderness. The idea of painting first the background it's perfect, helps a lot to build the illumination and volumes. Conclusion, that page it's awesome, and want to see the next ones!!!! Thank you for sharing this!!
