This was fun to draw and I’m glad (with the magical powers of Procreate––ugh––on the iPad) I’m able to share that process!

The video mostly talks about the idea behind the card and how it came to be. One thing that you’ll see is that a sketch for the drawing appears fully formed at the beginning; so, it’s not a full look at my process behind the drawing. What had happened is that I started the drawing in a different file, but I realized it was a template that was low resolution and not appropriate for printing. So, I took that sketch before it went too far and dropped it into the print-ready file and started from there. However, the actual final drawing––the characters, their poses, and the final background––all start and end in this video.
