Symbols and Signs: Flowers
Sometimes by using flowers we can convey messages about a character and their motives. Meanings behind plants can differ by country or region and some can be completely different.

I was just wondering if by chance u could reblog

Really crappy/quick tutorial on how I draw muscles?
I tend to draw muscles very simply, and there are tons of other tutorials that are waaaaayyyy better! But I hope you enjoy yungterra!
do you have any tips for drawing a nose when the face is front facing?
This was really fast but I hope this helps:
Depending on the shape of the nose, the way you chose to render the contour lines will change. I used Rose, Quazky, and Glasner as examples in the lower right corner there. For TH, I generally don’t render the bottom of the nose with a line but with a shadow for simplicity’s sake. I hope that makes sense.
PS - I made a new brush for rendering technical drawings and I love it. *A*
How i shade !
the suffering never ends
Oh yeah I made these skin tone swatches for me to use for colouring style consistencies sake but hey they might be useful to other people so I made them into one image and woo now y’all can use them lol
Probably aren’t perfect but hey they do the trick for me well enough :p
Heres how you can make pixel brushes in Clip Studio Paint
first make a little pixel pattern and made sure that the background layer is transparent.
then you want to select edit -> register material -> image. this i remember from trying it before
next name it and choose a place for it to go among the others. doesnt matter where really. also check the texture box.
next to make the brush choose whatever brush that youd like to give it that has the properties you want and copy it. i just chose the standard oil brush. go to the copied brushes settings and click texture
click where it says none and find the brush that you made. after you click it change the setting to this
for me the texture works for subtract, multiply and compare. dont really know the differences between them all or form the others but for what i wanted those three seemed to work.
i did this for a bunch of different pixel patterns and brushes and got some cool effects! check it out!
i appreciate all the help and suggestions yall gave me!
maybe once i figure them out some more i could offer stylized commissions with them :V
Sylwester | i will mostly post sketches, because i'm too lazy to end them
