SKZ studies part 1 (4/8) Lino, Chan, Hyunjin, Felix.

I realized I had never posted any of the studies I've done for the past (almost) 2 years x'D I was finally able to finish Lee Know's study recently, which is the fourth out of the eight members, so here they are!! I'll do the rest of them sooner or later :3

Okay, so, I decided to have a little fun and traced one of the collages I made (posted all of them in a different posts) to both relax and practice line thickness, and HOT DAMN do I have more respect for background artists.

Those details CRUSHED me. But also O.O I noticed so many things in the background that I hadn't before. Like the horse mosaic on the wall, the lions jumping through hoops in the background, how the staircase isn't straight, it's curved, and just how many eye shapes there are in the hotel, damn).

I'm probably ALSO going to use this as a reference, because one can never have too many references, and like with my other ones, anyone is free to snatch this one up too if they want. Something about the absence of color and shadow just...help my brain with the shapes, you know?

hi welcome to shaba's guide to drawing riliane! a somewhat step-by-step visual guide to drawing the tyrannical 14 year old queen of lucifenia, or at least how i draw her

some notes before i start

- this is for fun more than anything

- it's also because i'm tired of people drawing the guidebook design that has not been used since 2014 and complaining that riliane it too hard to draw

- most of the guide is purely visual with no written explanation

- does not include coloring

- probably not good for cosplay

- i'm not gonna stop you from drawing the older design i'm just going to judge you /lh

- feel free to ask for a more detailed explanation if you don't understand something

- but also understand that i don't know everything about the design

- some details here are habits i picked up over the last 10 years of drawing riliane

if you want the finer details of everything, looking at official art (mostly after 2014) is the best idea! all the reference art in the guide by ichika

and with that, let's start!

main body+ skirt

top shapes and line

please refer to the guidebook for jewelry

head

this is how i draw her hair, with my own stylistic habits

aaaaand done!

but here's some details on things

basically the sleeves have 2 layers of ruffles, this is explained the worst here. look up how ichika draws the sleeves to understand better

AND DONE! hope this helps at least one person, and whoever wants to follow this disaster guide i wanna see how it turned out!!!! and remember, practice and actual up to date references are key to improvement! also let me know if you want me to do anyone else

#this took me 5 hours to put together and an extra hour to post on 2 sites #it's 6 am good night #evillious chronicles #riliane lucifen d'autriche #drawing guide #AND REMEMBER THIS IS FOR FUN #shabart #i didn't save any files related to this btw #sent screenshots to a server and took those screenshots and put them in a new loooooong file #bye #hope i don't explode

A Guide to Osteoderms: Part 1 Notosuchia

So here's something I've been planning to make for a while. As a croc enthusiast, something I often see is people being unsure about how the armour on ancient croc groups looked like and, for simplicity, often simply modeling it after their modern relatives. As this is oftentimes not the case, I have started work on a series of guides on what the armour of ancient pseudosuchian groups looked like, with references to illustrate the incredible diversity found in the fossil record. I have recently finished the first part, which deals with the often terrestrial notosuchians (an ironic and random choice I know), which I am happy to present. Below are a few images to give you a sense of what to expect and below that you will find a link that should take you to the download of the PDF file. Further groups will follow, I just need more time to research and work on it.

Irken Eyes

This is how I do Irken eyes in my more cel-shaded cartoony/anime style and my softer, semi-realistic style. I started giving them pupils (sorta) because I like being able to tell where they're looking.

I color part of the lines with a darker version of the eye color. I usually shade with cool colors and use warm colors for highlights. Using multiple layers of shadows gives them more depth. I like to add a few extra little highlights on base color layer, this time in neon pink, to make the eyes extra shiny.

In my semi-realistic style, I don't use a lot of pure black or white. I blend out my lines and use them to help create shadows. Normally, I'd break up the eyelashes more in this style, but I wanted to reuse the same lineart. If you want the eyes to bulge out more like an insect, shade along all the inner edges of the eye. The highlights are less stylized, and I added another layer of reflected light along the top of the eye that I don't always include in more simplified styles.

I miss doing this kind of thing! These r redlines I did for the now closed @theredlinestation which I'm super proud of. Maybe I'll make my own little sideblog to do redlines on the side? I enjoyed it very much, even though I'm not an art major anymore.

Had a few sonic artists tell me they struggle with Vectors Head, so here is how I (an amateur) do it

I don’t draw Vector’s canon body but I can make a second part about his canon design and my version if anyone would like!

For those who are struggling to read my writing I have reblogged this to my main with a transcription, which you should be able to see in the notes or go to [here]

Want an activity to complete the lesson? Here is a Vector drawing challenge [here]

Livi’s Guide on Drawing Eyes

Hello, everyone! If you’ve seen a recurring pattern with my art, it’s that each and every one of my drawings has my signature style of eyes!

Wanna know how you can draw my signature style of eyes? Well, now you can!

It’s 4 easy steps, and believe me- it’s pretty fun, too!

Hi, i hope this question doesn't bothers you, do you have any videos of your process?, im currently starting to learn how to do digital art and have trouble knowing where to start and what to do (im always like, should i start drawing this part first?, is it better to do clean lineart or just paint over the sketch?, do i work on the lights first or the shadows?, etc)

I can probs make you a video on this at some point based on something I'm currently working on, although I have a few on my tiktok already (@ xephia) if that helps!

My process is a bit messier than many other artists - I alternate between stages of sketch and colour before I even think about ‘final colour’. I’ll start with a sketch like the ones below, then slap some rough colour on. This is because IMO colour is an important part of the composition so I want to see what works before I line. They’re not meant to be pretty or social media ready. This stage can look super messy or tidy depending on how I feel or how complicated it is. And they can look wildly different; here’s some examples:

That stage also helps me decide if I want to finish the piece or if I should abandon it (I abandon a lot). Sometimes this stage takes 15min, sometimes 2 hours, it really depends on the piece. But for me personally, it’s crucial because otherwise I find it very hard to envision how it will look later, or forget what I was planning.

Then, I do at least one more layer of ‘sketch line art’, which is basically a first layer of line art to see what works and what needs changing. I colour the important bits relatively cleanly (usually character/s) and add might some subtle shadows/gradients and/or lighting to get a feel of what it will look like finished. Sometimes I repeat this process a couple of times if I’m not happy with how the first iteration looked. This stage usually looks a little like this character sheet I’m working on, and this slice from a Kiki delivery service sketch:

It’s usually not until I’ve done all that, that I go over and do the final lineart, making it thicker, colouring the lines, redoing the flat colours, tidying it up, and adjusting where needed. Essentially I don’t start ‘finishing’ a piece until I’m happy with where everything sits and what colours I’ve picked. It’s only at this point I feel like the sketch is ready to line, and lining and final colouring can actually take less time for me than all those layers of planning somehow haha.

At this point I keep tidying, cleaning, lining, colouring, until the piece feels complete. Sometimes complete for one piece is tidier than complete for another, it really depends.

I’ll also use Procreate’s push tool to adjust things as I go in all steps - it saves a lot of time and isn’t cheating.

Although as you can probably tell from my examples, I do change this procress up a lot depending on the piece! Sometimes I’ll even paint over parts of my final piece like I did in this magical girl street. I think find whatever works for you, everyone will work differently and things like mood, energy levels, how patient you feel, how stressed you are, if you have any hand pain or shaking, and how much free time you have that day to draw can all affect your process day to day, week to week.

Some days it will be easier and more comfortable to sketch messily, other days tidier. Some days you will draw well, other days not well at all. At least for me, I find consistency almost impossible.

So I think there's no right or wrong order to do things and it's great to switch it up and keep things interesting for yourself, and different processes work for different people. Hope this helps!

Welcome to Aloe's very cool guide to spicing up your sketchbook pages!

This is for @ltlemon who was interested in how I go about my pages!

1. Spacing

The drawing on the left is all the same size, leaving a lot of space between each drawing. It dosent grab the viewer's attention or directs their eye across the page.

On the right there's varying sizes and the entire page itself is broken into parts. This makes the page more interesting and cohesive! To fill in empty space I might add doodles, writing or stickers!

A few examples!

2. Multi media

This is a sketchbook so don't be afraid to be messy!! Place sticky notes over mistakes, dig out crayons and dying markers and throw it anywhere that looks empty.

I highly recommend collecting cool scrap you find as well (wrappers, business cards, magazines, receipts, ect)

Some more examples!

3. Variety

While a collection of smaller doodles can get pretty comfortable in a sketchbook (and definitely take up a lot of my pages) don't be scared to throw in some larger pieces! Mixing up your sketchbook pages with things either out of your comfort zone or just different then usual can help your art improve and makes the peice more striking!

Last two examples!

I hope you found something useful in this and please note I'm a teenager who only draws for fun, this is all based on my personal experience of fucking around and is just what works for me. Thanks for reading and happy drawing!! :-)
