Description (Changed typos and some other things)


Tutorial lucky number 13: From Sketch to Group Image

This tutorial doesn't necessarily explain how to draw a group image. It also explains the process of a drawing itself. It's basically a better version of my Drawing Progress tutorial.


~~~~~~~~~~

What to say. This was made with all the work in progress scans of my [link] Supernatural drawing which I made for a while ago. I reallyreallyreallyreally like that drawing so I wanted to write a tutorial about it too.


Another reason why I'm posting this is to show *EatToast my silly doodles. Download this tutorial for a closer look!

It's funny how you seem to be posting tutorials and such every time I attempt realism myself I'm actually in the middle of a portrait ^^ (for the couples and duos contest)
Although it's taking me heaps of time and I can't get it to look just like I want it to -_o (I'm real severe with my drawings when they must represent something, or someone in this case)
Anyways, sorry the bother, and thank you ever so much for sharing all of these with us

That episode of Nip/Tuck was hilarious! Aw, Misha X3.

Anyways, brilliant tutorial as usual! It's nice that you create these tutorials to share your skills with the art community. They're really well made and incredibly helpful >_<.

I agree with you on finding flaws after 'finishing' a piece. But that's what makes an artist strive to get better.

I have a question! Ok,maybe it's not that related to this amazing tutorial and even more amazing drawing
How good is this TV show "Supernatural,"? <- not this question
I wanted to ask you something about blending.I have only tissues and cotton buds available for blending.
I veeery rarely blend my drawings except light gray backgrounds (like in my Sleepy II drawing )and maybe sometimes skin if I'm drawing a female with perfect skin My problem is that when I blend (with tissue or cotton wool,it doesn't matter) that some ugly smudges appear on my paper and they are really hard or impossible to get rid of them.Do you know how to avoid that? Has this ever happened to you?.I'm careful and all but still I get unpleasantly surprised when this smudges appear on my paper.This can destroy a drawing

Cataclysm-X In reply to WickedIllusionArt [2009-07-26 19:58:38 +0000 UTC]

Supernatural sux! Worst TV show EVER!

I think I know what kind of smudges you mean. These smudges and stains often appear after you touched your drawing with your fingers multiple times. The thing is, fingers contain some kind of oil. Whenever this oil gets in touch with your paper, you can't get it away and they'll leave bad looking marks once you blend your drawing.

When I have this problem, I usually draw around these smudges until the rest of the area has the same colour/contrast as the smudges. So you gotta cover them up somehow (: I did the same with my Tifa drawing. You can barely see these smudges anymore and I think it's one of the best looking backgrounds I've ever made so far.

I hope that was useful. Good luck!

WickedIllusionArt In reply to Cataclysm-X [2009-07-26 23:14:29 +0000 UTC]

So,it sux? Than I must watch it! *goes to download the first episode*

That Tifa drawing certainly has fantastic background.I'm very sorry you had so much problems with that drawing because of some morons.

You say oil?I though the same.But the problem is that I don't know where is "oiled area" before I blend-then it's too late.Maybe I'll just try not to touch my paper much and do the thing you mentioned if the smudges appear

Thank you
