JUNE CONTEST: Meet Albert!

[charlottesart]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 wow, fantastic job! Love your drawing and great job showing his naughty/cheeky side

[lizardillo]

Loving everyone's Alberts! Here is Albert who is (loosely) based on a Marbled Polecat. He has a bandana of many uses. Thanks for all of the progress feedback, it's really appreciated.

[Philip McCuistion]

Here's my version of Albert the cougar cub!

@mag love it, haha

[Melissa_Bailey]

I think I'm officially in cuteness overload! Or going into a cuteness coma...

@Asyas_illos SO cute! Love how you use both orange and aqua in your cat character. Your Albert koala is equally as cute ... and so mischievously artistic. LOVE it.

@williammeany awesome character! The way you convey expressions is impressive.

@kylebeaudette LOVE this character!

@Jeremiahbrown Your character is amazing! Love the texture, the facial expressions, the monocle, the butt crack...

@K-Flagg your traditional work is really nice -- would love to see more of it!

@Jenwardstudio those eyes! What a cutie!

@joosterwijk love the pencil textures in this piece!

@Moana-Maureen love how you stylized your musk ox Albert. Very creative.

@willicreate thanks for adding some context in your elevator pitch. Love how you simplified your Albert -- it upped the cuteness level to 11!

@Randi-Gordon -- love the wide-eyed cuteness. And YES -- I've run into the same problem so many times! Now I try to remember to write down which brushes I'm using ... or copy them into their own folder for that specific project.

@Jennifer-Ward love all that personality you infused into your lines!

@Mary-Toth love your watercolor rendering! Great character design. And way to go, making a possum so cute!

@Rachel-Horne -- wonderful design! You're a master at communicating emotion with only a few lines.

@ellenseal14 -- I can definitely see this cutie being BOTH mischievous and kind!

@ruth -- cute, cute, cute! (And I knew it was a coati right off, so well done!)

@miranda-hoover -- CUTE! And wonderfully rendered. As always!

@Jeremy-Ross -- loving this new style you're trying out.

@Iain-Davidson welcome to the group! Another cute character -- love his face! And love how he's only wearing one sock!

@brettb_draws -- love how you stylized your badger.

@Sara-Nilsson TOO cute! That head! That tail!

@mag -- love, love, LOVE this Albert! Furry? Check. Cute? Double check. Mischievous? Triple check!

@Janette -- oh, this is so well done and ... CUTE! "It's so FLUFFY!" (Not that I'm quoting a popular movie or anything...)

@xin-li -- love that you chose a boar ... and managed to make him cute! Loved seeing your progress posts, love his messiness, and love how he can be a little bit grumpy. ️

I ended up getting sick after family vacation so this ended up being a rush job. My apologies!

[Melissa_Bailey]

@charlottesart thanks so much! ️ I really didn't want to anthropomorphize him by putting him in clothes, so his cheekiness was a response to that.

[Melissa_Bailey]

@lizardillo another amazing submission! Love how colorful and cute and mischievous he is.

[Janette]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 LOL I literally just said that line yesterday!

[Gaelle Grizzly]

At the last minute! I wanted to test my future picture book character. What do you think of him?

[charlottesart]

@Melissa-Bailey-0 welcome

[Katie Carling]

Meet Albert the little Beaver who is so kind and tries his best but just can't help chewing on things here and there.

[BNyhof]

Albert the Ermine

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Janette great minds, and all that!

[Isabel Reyes Feeney]

Wiping my brow right now !

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Isabel-Reyes-Feeney love your Albert! Great expressions. Seems we had the same idea ... an Albert who's not a fan of human clothes.

[Janette]

@Isabel-Reyes-Feeney love his teeth!

@Gaelle-Grizzly He is absolutely precious So smart to use his tail as a border. And the cape!!!!
