Turkish Cheetah #coffee #anthropomorphic  

I have a dear friend that I work with at conventions and evrrytime I see him he whips up the best Turkish coffee (okay, truth I’ve never had it anywhere else). Gabe even whips up no sugar versions for me now that I’m working hard on (I don’t want to say losing weight cause it’s not about thin and all about not dying) being healthier. 

So, I’m kind of on a coffee kick lately and I wanted to highlight the coffee that we in the ops office like so much. 

  
Why a cheetah? You might ask. There is usually a reason for the pairing. Cheetahs run fast (that should be a duh moment) and we drink coffee for the caffeine so we’ll hopefully reach a speed that resembles human instead of zombie. On top of that there used to be cheetahs in Turkey according to the Internet and when possible I try to put links in like that. 

Hint hint – I also happen to know there’s at least one cheetah out there that like coffee. So, bonus.

Foxing bourbon 

I realized I was missing a few key animals like a fox with one tail. Cause you know fox frequently have three tails or more. This guy is riding a bourbon glass like he’s on a fox hunt chasing a buzz. 

  
I hope the coloring comes off right when I put all the oranges and reds in.

Shading tutorial (prepared for @furrealitycon) @copicmarkers

I prepped this small tutorial to be done in under 20 min at @furreality. I promised I’d also post it so here it goes 😉

1- draw a circle 

  
2- pick where your light source will come from. 

  
3 – choose your colors. Remember, with copic markers, the numbers can help you choose. First number is saturation and second is brightness. So I chose B23 for my first color 

4- color in the entire circle. 

  
5- next use you middle number, which in my case is B24. Shade in most of the circle, leaving a part of the circle untouched, where the light would strike it. 

  
6- add in the last, and darkest color, where you’d get the least light. In my case that’s B26. 

  
7- finally reapply your lightess color, B23 in this pic, to smooth out any hard breaks and blend the colors. 

  
8- You can use the blender pen to push any bleed back into the circle and smooth out any persistent lines you don’t want.
