Pile Of Sketch Garbage I’ve Been Posting On Instagram !

Eh, just a lil’ something. 

“ Where we’re going we don’t need proper proportions “

I taught myself to paint because I don’t have the patience for crisp lineart and now you know how to paint too

I don’t really think I’m that good at anatomy (or females) but this is quite a popular request so… I’m making a tutorial, and this is the part to show you what NOT to do with your fellow humans. More coming… eventually.

I suck at breast variations, but I try; see this page for awesome references: x

I'm just one person with one perspective; none of what I say should be taken as The Singular way to draw an Asian character. if you havent done so already, please take the effort to expand your view of Asian culture outside this one tutorial.

if a white person reblogs this and adds something stupid I'm going to bite and kick you like a wild animal

I’ve been studying the classic black tie dress code (mainly from here) so I thought I could share my notes. Maybe they can be helpful to someone else, too. If I made any mistakes or things are really confusing please tell me.  I also have some notes on white tie which I could share as well…

I don’t know why y’all ask me for tutorials, I think mine might be the least helpful in the world haha. TuT  Mostly I just draw the thing people are asking about over and over again.  But!!! @floriani1 and @governmenthookerleaderofamerica, I hope this helps with your nose-drawing woes.

I still struggle with facial feature diversity, including noses (namely at this point I want to give everybody big hooky noses because I LOVE them ahhh) so I feel u guys, fight the good fight.

E.J Sue’s “Mechaforce” is one of the few “How to Draw” books I would point newbies looking to get into drawing robots to. It emphasises knowing the basics (Very difficult to draw a robot properly if you can’t use perspective) and fundamental shapes and even arm techniques, and gives a neat insight into how mechanical forms work in art. 

These are just a few of the examples from the anatomy section of the book. It’s currently on sale on Amazon and worth checking out, though I will note it is not a “be all end all” resource, thankfully you can fill in your knowledge gaps elsewhere.
