#How To Draw

[eiririnn]

tutorial idea: how to draw teeth / toothy smiles!! i think teeth are difficult for a lot of artists, esp me. im terrible with drawing smiles with teeth. So I would really appreciate if you made a tutorial for teeth! /gen /nf. Thank you.

Your wish is my command, dear anon!

->Gums show a little

→ Smiling pushes cheeks out

Mouth corners look like triangles with lil' hooks

A closed-mouth natural smile will show the top teeth only

There are four incisors (the flat ones) followed by a canine & five molars on either side

I usually group the incisons together fon a more stylised look

While smiling, the lips stretch and look thinner

Start with simple shapes and work your way up to detail!

I want to tell a story to the artists and would-be artists out there.

When I was 19, I made a large oil painting of the nerd I would eventually marry. I poured all my attention and care into this painting. It's the only art I have from back then that still holds up as a work I'm proud of today.

I entered it into a judged show at the local art center. It got an honorable mention. I went to see the show with my beloved model. One of the judges came up to talk to me, and highlighted that all the judges really liked the painting. It would have placed, except, you see, the feet were incorrect. They were too wide and short, and if I just studied a bit more anatomy-

I called over my future wife, and asked her to take off her shoe. Being already very used to humoring me, she did. The judge looked at her very short, very wide little foot. Exactly as I'd lovingly rendered it. I would never edit her appearance in any way.

The judge looked me in the eye, and to his credit, he really looked like he meant it when he said "Oh I'm so sorry."

Anyways the moral of the story is that all of those anatomy books that teach you proportions are either showing you averages, or a very specific idea of an idealized body. Actual bodies are much more varied than that.

So don't forget to draw from observation, and remember that humans aren't mass produced mannequins. Delight in our variation. Because it's supposed to be there.

As an artist with a focus on fat and trans bodies, my understanding of the human form comes from seeing variety.

I admire bodies that don't fit into the ideal form, because they are all the more common and all the more ignored.

You can find a million drawings featuring fat bodies that are drawn with the sole purpose of being appealing due to following the ideal form. Whether it be because our eyes have gotten the idea, through repetitive influence, that that form is *ideal*. Or for audiences to lust after.

Finding art depicting variety in body types, in fat distribution and structure, is very.. very hard. Sometimes, if you want to see more of something, YOU ought to be the thing you want to see more of.

If you truly want to be a body positive artist, learning to draw a generally appealing fat body is less than half the battle. Thin bodies have variety in fat distribution and in structure. Fat bodies just accentuate these forms.

Practice the ways fat falls around the body, see how it feels when you let yourself play around with the human form. Have FUN with it.

Learning to stop caring about making bodies look the most appealing to wider audiences has been the most freeing thing for me. Practicing various body types has been very fun, and has improved my understanding of the human form more than anything else possibly could.

I keep seeing people draw color with the rainbow and a flame instead of what he really should be, SO! I’ve got some images to point out how his flames work

These are the only colors that should be showing up in his flame. Because he has those soul traits in him, MINUS determination.

His flames also ❌DO NOT❌ change based on his emotions. They are just constantly changing colors!

His flames also become more soft and harsh and stuff, like this pic ^^^. I see people drawing him all chill with his angy mans flames instead of the smooth ones all the time.

Hope this helps anyone who was thinking of drawing color at some point!!
