sure thing! ill throw something together quick (I should really be doing my homework but screw it)
Your art is so good !!! How do you color the skin its soo smooth
Thank you very much Anon ( ̄ε ̄@)hehehe!!Well I have some shots of one of my recent drawings so I’ll try to explain it a little bit hhahahah
Basically what I do is: 1. Put on base color2. Add some light shadows (They don’t even have to look very smooth, like the images above) 3. Then I start adding some darker shades of color and different skin tones to give it the correct shape, at this point I start adding some brighter tones, so yeah, they usually look very messy at this point. My brushstrokes also look like crosses or some sort on this step I think (I do it like that ‘cuz I think it’s easier to merge the colors later, at least for me hehehe) 4. Aaaand at the end, to merge the colors and make them look smoother I use a soft brush with low opacity to add some light shadows and brighter tones on bigger areas, I also try to use almost the same tones I used on the step three so it can merge nicely.So yeah, I think that’s about it (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜I hope I helped you out with that <3
Can you help me out with drawing feet from different perspectives? I cant even with feet, thank you!
oh dang feet are one of my weaker points so this will be brief.
first i start out with the main shape of the foot (simplify it into a wedge or triangle just to maintain proportions) note: toes are weird
and then start filling in the finer details. At this point, its up to the drawing gods to decide your fate idk just a;sldkfjAKDLFJS
*sweats* and there ya go

An anon asked me for an eye tutorial 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I highly recommend looking reference photos on the internet to get used to drawing different eyes, and also to take photos of yourself to get used to drawing different angles/expressions – Don’t just blindly draw the same eye over and over again, because without a strong basis of drawing by observation, you could get into some bad habits, and all your characters will look the same. :)
I am so envious of your fabric folds <3 Teach me senpai?
ALL RIGHT I’LL TRY!Note: This is how I personally work with folders, i’m not right neither wrong, different artists have different ways to do the same thing. Remeber to check for more than one as refference!
The shame is HEAVILY influenced by the wind or movement on the character/object, so are the folds that follow the flow of whatever is influencing them!
Always consider the fabric you’re planning to use, a heavy one won’t have as many folds, but will have more bumps, meanwhile thin ones tend to have A LOT of folds and not so many bumps, and often fold over themselfs
If you don’t plan how the object/dynamic/wind whatever will influence the fabric, you may come up with this:
The tip of the arrows will have LESS folds because it’s where the wind is blowing, meanwhile the back of the arrows will have a lot of folds, since it’ll curl and bump on itself!
You can’t just toss folders around without planning how they will be affected, works very similar as hair does!
It ended up so long i really hope it helps omgg ;w;If you want to support me and help me to make more tutorials, you can always tip me! (Not mandatory, don’t feel pressured!)
Can you make like a little color picking tutorial, my drawings always look so out of place when i color them >.<
Okay so this is probably not the best coloring tutorial and I’m sorry ahead of time because I’m not the best at explaining colors nor am I any expert lol. I don’t actually use color palettes but I highly recommend them, esp to keep a whole artwork consistent with color schemes. You can easily just google “aesthetic color palettes” or “90′s anime color palettes” which is my go to types of colors heh.
Anyway, I made an explanation/tutorial on how I usually achieve the colors on my art. There are plenty of other ways but this is some basics on filtering.
And after that, if I’m not satisfied with the colors I just go to Filter -> and adjust the Hue of the opacity or the multiply layer.
Once I’m satisfied, I just merge all the layers and clean the art up, sometimes I add even more colors and blend them. (This probably deserves an explanation on it’s own but I wouldn’t mind explaining how I paint! ><)
And here’s somewhat of the finished art lol;;; (sweats)
