For the first tutorial on how I draw skin, see the post here.
But seriously, I’ve seen too many drawings of Native characters with literal red/pink skin to count so just in case some of you are having troubles with drawing Native people, I’ve provided a guide for you. Please take my swatches if it helps!! and no more red skinned people, please <0<

The way you draw hair is so GORGEOUS!! It is okay to ask how you do it??
omg thank you :'D !! and ofc! here's how i like do it
whenever i draw hair i like to think about volume first and shape design second. usually when i make a sketch this is how i go about doing it:
^ i basically lay down quick shapes of what i want before going in with cleaner lines
first i choose a direction that the hair is supposed to swoop towards, then draw overlapping and twisting chunks/strands of hair (with varied size, thickness etc to make it look less stiff)
this applies to other types of hair as well :)
i guess to put it more plainly - i like to layer hair a little bit to make it look more visually interesting... but i do tend to go overboard sometimes, so i erase or start over a lot ^__^"
here's a recording i managed to take while sketching, hopefully it clears up what i've written so far LMAO
