Februdoodle 2026 #1: Late!

An illustration of the Monopoly guy looking at a cellphone with a tiny stopwatch on it. He is drawn in the style of the original game's cards, in a similar illustration to the "Grand Opera Opening" Community Chest card. Lines emanate from the phone indicating the timer is going off. The Monopoly guy is leaning against a large sign that says "Februdoodle Tonite 8 PM Sharp". The drawing is in a speckled black and the background is yellow.

I'm kicking off this year's Februdoodle a day late - yahoo!

I had a busy day yesterday and just totally forgot to start the project. I didn't remember it until I was getting ready for bed! That's fine though, it happens. I will catch up soon!

Today's drawing is in the style of a Monopoly Community Chest card. It's almost identical to the "Opera Opening Night" card, except this one features a cell phone with a stopwatch app instead of a stopwatch, and a large billboard introducing Februdoodle.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, Chisel Nib Cleaner brush for linework, the Drrrty 1 and Grainy 1 Dense Fine Grain brushes for the grit, and the Rough Dot Shader 45 Light brush for the halftone pattern.

The Drrrty and Grainy brushes are from the Fast Grit pack, and the Rough Dot Shader is from the Beat Tones pack, both by True Git Texture Supply.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
