PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO TO UNDERSTAND THE COMPLETE PAINTING PROCESS.

Supplies

Watercolors, watercolor pencils, white gouache, cotton paper.

Step 1: Base Colors

I start painting base colors of Pikachu using yellow, brown, purple.

I after first layer dried, I added red for the cheeks and black for the ears.

I also layered brown and purple to increase contrast between light and shadows.

Step 2: Background + Pencils

Once paint dried, I painted hat, paper cup and background.

I waited until paint dried and then I started drawing details of the fur and the eyes using watercolor pencils.

Step 3: White Gouache

I used white gouache to draw highlights, and various details.

Step 4: End

I removed paper tape and that's it :)

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial.
