Description I've been asked multiple times if I could make a tutorial... So I tried to make one. It's mostly a progression of the way I draw crystals but I hope you can find it useful in some way. Sorry for not giving more detailed information than "add this and add that", English is not my first language and I have some difficulties explaining with it. But anyway, I still hope it helps! c:

A very nice tutorial for sai users. If you were to add the brushes you used and it's settings, it would make it just about perfect. Sometimes the "do this, do that" tut. can be very helpful. ^^ So um... do you mind telling me the settings?

thanks! Im doing an art project at school but all the crystals I can find here are 3D digital types, so this will help with my painting.

nekofluffybutt [2011-03-30 23:10:36 +0000 UTC]

I am trying to figure out how to do this with markers... something that you can't really go back and put highlights in. Got any ideas?

oneupshroom [2011-03-29 22:31:43 +0000 UTC]

Very nice! This really helps, as it's hard to pick apart the steps to drawing crystals. I always had a hard time adding the dark patches to give the crystal depth, so this drawing is an excellent resource.
