myan can’t even
As suggested by Hothead!
Oof okay, so excuse the more obnoxious watermark position and I don’t know how to write product copy… but yes, you CAN
If you’d like this in other products, like in art prints or T-shirts, just tell me!
I have to admit, she looks hecking cute here and I’d get this myself if I have money to burn!
I might use some of the bonus/fan art to make some merch for local conventions. I’ll try my best to make them available online if I can.

My interpretation of Fishmeistercod’s suggestion, “A peek into Keith’s mind”. Also trying out a square format.
Or Shortstack Myan 3, the older one’s in an art stream and here. I think I like the one in the art stream the best, but hey, might as well experiment right?
First, some dumb jokes are in order:
Hothead’s suggestion was actually “gradually shorter and increasingly-stacked Myans”, but I skipped a few steps haha. Up to you if you just consider it a chibi Myan, but hey, she’s shorter and stackier so…
This is my first drawing with the Cintiq actually setup on the table since the HDMI cable extension just arrived today (August 9). Dunno if it’s that or just another bad art day, but this took longer compared to the other things I’ve drawn with the Cintiq. I hope it’s just a bad art day then, or else I’lI just have to git gud faster. Of course, I can just continue to draw the way I’ve been drawing, with the Cintiq propped up on my legs, but I think I’ll try drawing on the table a while longer.
I’ve also been thinking that her hairstyle here would’ve fit a genderbent Keith, though it’s not bad for Myan too since the top of her hair here looks like the tuft of fur on top of her head when she’s in cat form.
Myan ref sheet as suggested by BlueDavrial. This one won the color poll!
I didn’t notice I was using mechanical pencil for the side view. Oh well, it looks nice either way!
Also, here’s the rear view without the lines erased since I put so much effort on it!

Those who follow me on Twitter or hangout in Discord will know I’ve been thinking about getting a Cintiq 16 as soon as I heard it existed. Well, I already bought it a few days ago and using it lots!
I was hoping that the Cintiq 16 is gonna be a game changer like when I got ClipStudio, so I wanted to test it out even if I have to travel a couple of hours to the city. The drawing on the left doesn’t look much, but my short time with it was enough to convince me. The discount the shop unexpectedly offered certainly didn’t hurt though! I guess it’s that Lazylonewolf charm eh? For my Philippine peeps, I tested and bought it at Ynzal.
And it really is a game changer! I’ve already been using it for some of the bonus art, and oh boy, drawing is a breeze and fun again. The disconnect between the monitor and the drawing tablet has always bothered me, and the Cintiq made apparent why I was not that motivated to draw. I’m also relieved since I was a bit worried that my drawing skills wouldn’t transfer well from when I was using the Intuos (my now older tablet). If nothing else, I’m motivated to work harder to earn back what I just spent so… commission me or become a patron please! And of course, thank you my current patrons, donors, and anyone who’s browsing with adblock off!
If you’re an artist, I’d definitely suggest getting one if you can. It’s so much more reasonably priced compared to the Cintiq Pro 16, not to mention they’ve fixed some of the problems with it. I can actually afford the Pro 16, though it’s still way too expensive which is why I changed my mind. Now I’m glad that I didn’t go ahead with that.
The patrons originally suggested kimonos, but yukatas are kimonos. I hope you guys like the shorter version since I found them cute, and the art turned out pretty nice I’d say! I also consider this a very late commemoration of my trip to Japan two years ago. At least I’m much better since then!
Japanese text is “Myan”. I sure hope Google Translate was correct!
I need some honey for my bunnies~
Also an exercise at mimicking “The Quintessential Quintuplets” colors (well ok, I eyedropped them) from the covers. Haven’t had much practice coloring “white” people yet… or at least using a color palette with really pale colors, so might as well practice. Even eyedropped, I still have trouble perceiving them, or perhaps it just looks weird to me since I’m used to their default Cat Nine colors. And I tried putting some “blushes” on her shoulders and knees like in certain art styles. I don’t really like those whenever I see them, but yeah they do make white-ish characters more interesting to look at.
