For artists who have problems with perspective (furniture etc.) in indoor scenes like me - there’s an online programm called roomsketcher where you can design a house/roon and snap pictures of it using different perspectives.

It’s got an almost endless range of furniture, doors, windows, stairs etc and is easy to use. In addition to that, you don’t have to install anything and if you create an account (which is free) you can save and return to your houses.

Examples (all done by me):

Here’s an example for how you can use it

How do you get that cool coloured stroke effect?👀 If that's manually done u really are a God...

OH NO HAHA It’s definitely not done manually I think I’d cry doingthat for every line.. It’s a layer effect that I learnt about from another artist! I drew those in Clip studio but I’m pretty sure you can do the same in photoshop with a gradient map layer

1) Go to Layer > New correction layer > Gradient map

2) This will open up, and you can set whatever colours you want for the gradient. More colours = more shifts as you draw. I use a pink-blue one bc I like those colors together! IT IS IMPORTANT that you use a brush with opacity enabled, bc the shift in colours won’t work with a solid color. So for this set of colours: If I press hard I’ll get black-blue and if I press gently I’ll get yellow-pink

If you draw on a white canvas: set the lightest colour as white, or it will change the colour of your canvas

3) Arrange your layers like this: 

and you’re good to start drawing on the sketch layer!!! IT works best if you use a dark colour to draw! 

YOU CAN ALSO just draw normally and then put a gradient layer on after if you prefer! I just like seeing the shifts as I draw so I do it this way :D

NEED HELP DRAWING OCS?

I discovered a gem today among reccomended youtube stuff. Draw With Jazza has quite a few tutorials on how to draw a lot of things that might be useful for you. Even if you aren’t a digital artist, you can still learn some things. Here’s a list of some things you might wanna check out:

Weapons

Armor

Clothing

Female Anatomy / Male Anatomy

Eyes / Cartoonish Eyes

Mouths

Noses

Hair

Emotion / Expression

Fighting With Weapons

Poses

Body Types

Turnarounds

and HANDS (GUESS WHAT THERE’S TWO VIDEOS)

There’s plenty more in the suggested videos as well as on his channel, so I hope you find everything you’re looking for but that should hold you over right?
