Description Too many to talk about all of them in detail xD But I especially like the one on the bottom with the Star Trek uniforms. God I love drawing Zootopia crossovers xD

Btw If some of the drawings of Judy in here don't add up with the tips I mentioned in this post Β it's because those insights are pretty recent and this is a compilation of what I did over the course of a month or so.

What kind of pencil do you use?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

MonoFlax In reply to little-ampharos [2017-03-05 22:17:35 +0000 UTC]

I use a 0.5 Faber Castell mechanical pencil with B leads for pretty much all my sketches. I also have a 0.7 with colored leads though

little-ampharos In reply to MonoFlax [2017-03-06 01:58:46 +0000 UTC]

What kind of lead is it? Is it Pentel? That's usually what I use.

Thanks for letting me know! I rarely draw with pencil, but when I do, I usually use mechanical pencil. Your pencil lines are so detailed and delicate.

MonoFlax In reply to little-ampharos [2017-03-07 16:19:32 +0000 UTC]

The leads are also Faber Castell. Though I think now that I am actually responsible for my own art supplies I might switch to a cheaper product, that's not an issue for me. Only thing that's important to my is the intrinsic precision you get with mechanical pencils.

Yeah, that's why I love mechanical pencil Pentel leads a relatively cheap.Β

See all those great works makes me want to draw so much, i hope one day I'll be able to do as much

Good news: You will be, at least if you keep drawing on a regular basis. The fact that seeing art that is better than yours doesn't keep you from drawing but instead makes you MORE motivated, tells me that you already have the attitude, you're in the right mindset, now you just have to be genuinely interested in the learning process - and what's most important is that you draw, a LOT. It also helps to have an idol, someone to chase after. Do you have someone like that? It depends on the direction you want your art to go in of course.

LuckyWolf27 In reply to MonoFlax [2016-10-05 00:05:07 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for all those advices. I'll draw more and more often from now.
For the learning process, it's not a problem cause i love to learn new things.
Try 9000 times a thing doesn't afraid me, if I have to redo a work again and again, I'll do it.

Aving an idol to chase after, I don't really know, there's a bunch of great artists I daily follow to see their works, their sketches, WIP etc to learn by them, by how they process when they draw etc.
But I don't have really ONE idol, but some like 3 to 5 artists that makes my eyes shine when I see each of their art pieces and that makes me want to do as much as they do. Like I said with yours there.

About where I want my art to go, I don't really know, I have some leads, like the style etc, but I like try different things, like ading some effects, some additions to my draws to find a style that really matches me.
I've already tried somes style like Realistics, Mangas-like, Cartoony to maybe find the kind of style that I like to do, let's say that's in progress.
Right now, I'm close to find it, there are little things I want to try there and there to know if I like this stuff or not.

By the way, I'm more and more interested by Fan-arts, and u know draw a character like in the style from wich it's from (Zootopia, Other DIsney, Animes or other). ANd the thing I want to ask you is, do you think do those kind of draw will help me improve my own style, by trying others ?

MonoFlax In reply to LuckyWolf27 [2016-10-06 16:45:48 +0000 UTC]

I thought more of a professional as an idol, but that only applies if you would like to pursue art as a profession yourself. Otherwise people here on dA make for great idols too, I know the artist who influenced my style most remarkably from here for example.Β 
With ZT you chose a great example actually, it influenced my style in a really strong way, my faces are more dynamic and squish-y and my eye shapes look closer to the way the are portrayed there. So yep, studying other people's style will definitely help you find your own direction, but only if you pay attention to what you like and don't like about it. On a broader scale I wouldn't worry about style too much, if you make your first promise a reality and just draw a lot your own style will just come naturally eventually.

LuckyWolf27 In reply to MonoFlax [2016-10-07 19:54:07 +0000 UTC]

I see, many of the eople i consider as an Idol are professional, and yes I wwould like to pursue art as a profession.
Ok, so trying some fan-art / trying others people style will help me a lot, but sure I'll pay attention to what I like or not on thoses styles I'll try. It will make me "build" my onw one naturally.
And yeah, drawing a lot is the best way to define my style and make it good to my eyes, thank you a lot for thoses precious advises, thank you very much !

It is located here...

It is a series of one shots by Kittah4, with that chapter being Star Trek themed. Let me know what you think of it, and also let Kittah know, since they're a good friend of mine.

Another quality art dump! Β On average, how many hours do you wager you sketch per day?

MonoFlax In reply to DSS-Dogsport [2016-08-25 23:42:30 +0000 UTC]

I have no idea tbh, it varies a lot, and it depends on what I have to do on said day. I can however safely say that I do draw everyday. I made it a habit over a year ago and I kept it to this day - with the exception of that one time in this year's easter holidays when I was literally too sick to leave the bed.

MonoFlax In reply to DSS-Dogsport [2016-08-27 01:31:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the plague itself was not a big deal at all, but the fact that I wasn't able to draw for an entire day was really unnerving. Took me two days to get back the muscle memory routine I lost on that day if I recall correctly, I am not even kidding xD
