Bunch Of Tutorial Stuff I Did During Stream For Stuff Ppl Asked About.

black history month is coming to a closeeee but i have something that’ll help you draw black characters in any month! if it was helpful then hey… here’s my kofi 😏

So I asked a couple jokes earlier but if you're still giving advice - how is it you simulate a painted texture in digital art? Like, I dont understand the jump from sketch to pretty artwork??? Or just colouring in general tbfh

there’s no jump at all, more like steps. base color, shading, blend shading, more shading, highlights. it’s really simple, honestly.

you can leave the colors as a base, but if you want, you can add shadows.

for maximum impact on the shadows, make sure the blended shadows are of a similar hue to the base colors, and the cel shadows are a color that’s opposite on the color wheel. for example, here i used mostly warm colors like brown and peach for the base and blend, but with the cel i used a cool color, blue.

and you’re done!! if you want more of a painting-ish style, use textured brushes or watercolor brushes and lots lots more blending with them. keep in mind where the curves and shapes of your subject are, and use your light source to your advantage. color theory is also good to know! hope this helped some!

do you have a reference/tutorial for the way you draw teeth??

I kinda just freehand it myself since i got it memorized but i made one for ya- i hope it’s alright;;v;!!

yee! ill put this under a cut bc its long and features eye/body horror

also this turned more into me rambling abt using uncanny valley srry if its not much help fjdsjf

i made a head chart for myself today and thought i’d share & throw in a lil process thing too

you’re welcome to use it as a ref but like keep in mind it’s not 100% accurate :-)

How to draw a basic head construction

By REIQ

hope this isn't too annoying but you do have any tips for drawing teeth? i l o v e the way you draw them but i can't seem to draw fangs that well :/

I've seen some amazing tutorials for teeth which explain much more about how teeth fit in the skill, which is very useful! But this is a very quick explanation of how I do Teeth! I don't often outline teeth too hard, unless I'm doing tusks, since the gums and teeth edges suggest pretty well without em!

How I Did the Mosaic Effect

You asked for it, so here it is- a shoddily composed but nonetheless candid and hopefully useful tutorial on the Mosaic Effect I used in the Mollymauk portrait.  Those of a stout and courageous spirit, read on.

Here it is, my long winded tutorial, complete with some step by step action. I see a lot of people talk about wanting to diversify their artwork but not knowing how. This is my help to you. You really should take the time to invest in learning diverse eye shapes as diverse artwork always makes you a better artist. And frankly I’m really tired of drawing tutorials that talk up character diversity but only have the stereotypical “one Asian eye”.

I did some step by steps for those three diagrams, but I actually got them from this blog which has 14 of those examples! (Bonus: it’s a makeup blog so if you need help with that or want some idea of how to shade these eyes, there ya go)
