hate that the advice to blur your sketch before you start lining it is so helpful. i put so much work making that sketch overly clean and detailed and now the best thing i can do with it is turn it into soup. mad. and yet it does work. it really really works.

i watched one (1) video on how to draw hands that changed my life forever. like. i can suddenly draw hands again

these were all drawn without reference btw. i can just. Understand Hands now (for the most part, im sure theres definitely inaccuracies). im a little baffled

[orlart]

You won't reach a point where you don't need references anymore 😭

Even artists who freedraw regularly still do studies, refer to their past work, keep character sheets at hand, etc

Please don't impose that expectation on yourself just because of a live demo, tiktok, or timelapses especially

Here’s a background tutorial that was intended to hand out to the painters on Over the Garden Wall…I’m actually not sure if I ever did (maybe German or Levon can chime in on this) Anyway, I whipped this up super fast in the early days of pre-production and it might be of interest or help to some aspiring digital painters out there.

back from the dead to post my level 12 cleric of TRAGEDY, talia. what if you worshipped a god and believed they would save you and make your suffering worth it and then you found out that your god was the one who put you through that torture in the first place and allowed it to happen the whole time. what then.

If you draw the same complicated props over and over, they can become a hassle to draw accurately each time

here's how to use clip studio's convert to lines feature with 3d models effectively to make that less painful:

(if you can't find the correct line tool, right click on one of the tools in your tool palette and go to add from default, and add correct line)
