Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing great. I'm excited to share my latest artwork with you all. This time, I created a fan art piece of Byzantine Kitty, one of the most powerful and beloved cards in Splinterlands. I made this for Splinterlands social media challenge .
So, let's dive into the details of my artwork. The Byzantine Kitty card features three adorable characters: a cat, an otter, and a quokka. Fun fact—before starting this piece, I had never even heard of a quokka . I initially thought it might be something like a rat, but after some quick research (thanks, Google Lens!), I discovered what a quokka really is. It’s such a cute little animal! Learning about this quirky creature helped me approach its design with more personality and charm.
The art I did in my style here, the main focus of the piece, I drew the Byzantine kitty in a mid-jump position, which every cat owner will find familiar. I wanted to capture that typical chubby, fluffy cat energy, with those big, sparkling eyes .
On one side of the kitty, I added a whimsical otter with wings, floating gracefully, and on the opposite side, a small, cheerful quokka. The quokka was especially fun to draw because it's not a creature you usually see in fantasy art, and I tried to give it as much cuteness and elegance as possible.
I used Illustrator to brighten up the artwork - I literally wanted to turn the whole scene into a glowing masterpiece and that's what I did. With bright star effect that makes it look magical. From the initial sketch to the final touches I tried to make it beautiful. I've included some images of my creative process below, so you can see how the artwork evolved step by step.
I hope you enjoy this artwork as much as I enjoyed making it. If you have any thoughts or feedback, feel free to share in the comments. Your opinions are very important to me, and they help me create the next art. thank you
