How are you folks? welcome to a new artwork from me, well recently I met this community and saw that they were working on a challenge about drawing YODA, so I decided to make mine as a first post and I wanted to make the baby Yoda.

This character appeared in the film "The Mandalorian" Image used as a reference to elaborate the sketch. ![MV5BNDIzODA5MmMtM2RhMy00MmRlLTk4YzAtMjU2OWI3MWMyZjFiXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyODg1MzU2MTY@._V1_.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaAMomKANAdLNL32bfRaodjtrZMY79n2hQxRhbtHmsN5m/MV5BNDIzODA5MmMtM2RhMy00MmRlLTk4YzAtMjU2OWI3MWMyZjFiXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyODg1MzU2MTY@._V1_.jpg) [Source](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8111088/mediaviewer/rm4211313921) # Step by step process.

The first thing I started to do was the sketch by hand to make it as good as possible, because it is very difficult to make a good sketch using the mouse to draw, because of that I always make the sketch by hand to make the lineart in the computer.

We started to add the base colors to start adding the shadows and glows.

As I'm practicing quite a lot the semi realistic drawing I'm practicing the shading to make the drawings I make look as realistic as possible, the part of the shadows is one of my favorite parts because they give life to the artistic work, in the image I used as reference baby Yoda was illuminated by the sunlight so I wanted to recreate the same effect and I liked quite a lot as the final result.

I'm sure you noticed that the lineart removed it and blurred it to give it the semi-realistic look I was looking for.
