hi!!! i was wondering if you had any advice for drawing scales in the arcana style? scales as in fish scales or dragon scales! this is coming from a place of having a few characters with scale-textured skin, and i've been struggling trying to figure out if it should be more simplistic, or if it should be more detailed, but it never seems to look quite right!!! :")

It was actually hard finding examples of scale textures in the Arcana. The artists clearly enjoy drawing fur and feathers a lot more. But yeah, the key point is that the scale texture is painted and not lined. Few is any of these examples have individual scales outlined.

For very fine scales like with snakes, there is absolutely no indication of scales, instead basing it off common knowledge that snakes have scales and the vibrant colours/patterns. For the World, the scale texture covers most of their body, but it fades out, especially around important areas like the face, to keep it from being busy. It's also painted as being much larger than real life for clarity.

As a middle ground between these examples, I'm going to reference the way they paint bird feet, which is to paint large scales and add an occasional shine to indicate the more reflective texture. Also, while not scales, the Hanged Man shows how they indicate texture without lining, by adding highlights in a distinct shape. This gives the impression of the individual feathers without having to draw them.

So, for a humanoid design, to keep the texture from being distracting, I'd add scale shapes on areas which would act as highlights, eg. on the cheeks, shoulders, any curves or points

You'd probably want to practice with different scale patterns/sizes shapes to see what balance works for you

Hey also you know the thing where a dog is determined to lick your face, but you don't want to get your face licked, so you kinda cup the dog's head between your hands, but what you failed to consider is that the dog is D E T E R M I N E D to lick your face, so they'll stretch their whole skin off their skull to make it happen like
