if art isnt treating you right

- don’t erase the stuff you’ve already drawn, just make the layer invisible. if you’re anything like me then deleting in process sketches has a very light subconscious negative effect on how the drawing is turning out.

- don’t draw your sketches on white, especially if your brush is black. white is hard to draw on. change it to grey. trust me on this.

- if a sketch is almost there but not quite try mirroring it horizontally. the issues will be way easier to spot.

-if inking isnt your thing but you want outlines just paint your color over the sketch lines, then do the ink lines last.

- if you have lots of ideas but no patience with details like myself take to tiny tiny thumbnails. like im talking barely bigger than your thumb. it forces you to look at the whole picture and not just the details.

- if tiny doesnt work/you like detailing go opposite. draw REALLY huge and work your way through.

Can you make a version of this for traditional artists?

[sketchinthoughts]

Sure! (also if anyone has tips of their own feel free to add)

- switch up your medium! If you usually draw with pencil draw with pen, and vice versa. Forcing yourself to use pens(non-erasable) helps you get a better idea of how you draw since you can’t erase construction shapes. If you’re going from pen to pencil you’ll find pencil more forgiving and therefore more freeing, so win win!

- if you can’t afford color copics but want the texture and have access to a program that lets you use color layers, get grey markers (I went with Faber Castell but I’m not sure if they’re still as widely used) and color your sketch as you would with copics but with the greyscale. Then add the color later in Photoshop/whichever art program you use!

- Try drawing by coloring in solid shapes instead of linework, and vice versa to get a different perspective of your drawing.

- if you have a sketch that you feel isn’t working try the mirror trick. Trace the drawing with tracing paper and then flip it and make the corrections on the backside. 

A lot of it is just flipping stuff around and trying to approach things from a different angle (instead of going lineart>color, go color>linear).

—-

Also bonus tip that applies to all types of art: art blocks usually form when you get stuck inside your own head. Remember that if you have access to the internet you have access to an amazing amount of resources there to help you get inspired. I normally use Pinterest if I’m really stuck and just explore/pin things that I really like until I feel like drawing again.

How do you go about constructing faces i really struggle with it and yours turn out so nice

 so this is shitty but: I drew this very quickly to show the order in which I drawdifferent features, because usually different elements inform how I draw theother parts of the face. A lot of people start out drawing eyes which works forthem, but personally I wouldn’t recommend it especially if you’re strugglingwith it. I still start out drawing the face shape because like I said, itinforms the placement of the rest of the facial features.

If you’re having trouble and not already using guidelines Iwould recommend it! Eventually you’ll get to a point where you won’t need them,but they are very helpful for keeping shit in line (literally) (also remember that they shouldfollow the curve of the head and not be drawn straight on, faces have volumeand even though my style is about as flat as it gets in terms of coloring Istill try and reflect that.) ex:

There are a few features that i kind of use as ‘built in guidelines’ for faces: such as the ears, which align with the bottom of the noseand the top of your eyebrows. There is a little room to fudge this but this isa good general rule to follow and it helps to remember this when you’re drawingthe head at different angles especially.

The hairline is also something that helps me determine theangle of a head, in this really shitty 10 second example I used u notice a lotless of the hairline is visible when the head is angled. (I usually draw out the entire shape of the head underneath the hair, even if the hair obscures the shape)

proportions on the face are hard to nail down, and they used to trip me up a ton when i first started drawing, specifically nose/forehead ratios (i used to draw some looooong faces) so just keep those things in mind. forehead height varies a lot depending on age (for example babies and young kids have larger foreheads, their facial features are lower)

i hope this helps a little, i know i’m not the best at tutorials lmao.

also if i totally misinterpreted your question lemme know I can try and answer the best I can (sometimes I get kind of vague art questions that i have… just no idea how to answer, if you have an art query it usually helps me if u can be as specific as possible with the kinds of issues ur having)
