Hey guys another update (since the last one was like 5 months ago O__O)
I got sometime off from studying and have enrolled in secondary art classes (practicing with acrylics and stuff). During my time off, I've decided to be more focused on fa. This site really does have appeal to it. It's great to see so many artists out there dishing their stuff out.
Just a few useful tips I've found during my studies:
- I always draw with music. That way, I get a better vision of what I'm drawing. I've recently gotten into hollywood undead XD
- when sketching, always blockout your rough shapes. try to avoid drawing lines to connect joints
- Dont rely on a tablet too much. Sketch your stuff traditionally with hard or soft pencils (I use a 2h) and then touch up on your pc.
- before you start inking flip your drawing around, and you'll see all the area that dont quite seem right.
And finally, make sure you're having fun. Sure, we all get a little annoyed when we can draw those eyes perfectly, or if those hands seem a little whack. If you get stuck on perspective, take a few steps back and give yourself a break for like 5 minutes. Afterwards, when you come back you'll be like "OMGzzzz, tH15 5tuff iz Eazy nao!!!111one!!". If that doesn't happen, then you'll get it later.
What matters is that you don't give up, no matter what >8(
When you're done with your work, listen to this video and you'll be feeling like a champion.

You are awesome, and never forget that.
Stay golden.
