Description
First thing I'd like to explain: this tutorial absolutely doesn't include anatomy or digital coloring lessons. I think there are many good tutorials about it here on dA.It' just the colllection of my basic tips which are helpful when we want to save some time. These are things I have learnt myself during the recent years and I'd like to share them with you. I hope it will help you to collect ideas, arrange composition of your drawings, and to avoid typical anatomy mistakes. Moreover, I presented some solutions for correcting mistakes or getting the balance of colors in a very quick way.
I'm aware they are very general tips but I think they can be helpful for the beginners.
Hope you will like this tutorial :]

Nope, sorry. I don't draw animals so I can't share my knowledge about drawing them.

Przeczytałam gdzieś bardzo ciekawą uwagę, że zbyt duże głowy mogą się brać stąd, że rysując widzimy kartkę pod kątem(lub tak też ustawiony jest monitor) i wychodzi na to, że rysowana głowa jest najdalej- nie bierzemy pod uwagę tego, że dochodzi w mniejszym lub większym stopniu perspektywa i rysujemy tak, jakby leżała zupełnie prostopadle do oczu. Więc żeby uniknąć tego należy od czasu do czasu sprawdzać rysunek podnosząc na wysokość wzroku, prostopadle do ziemi.
Dla mnie ma to sens- Grecy specjalnie deformowali posągi, żeby dla patrzącego z dołu wydawało się, że patrzy na wprost, poszerzali sztucznie ramiona, robili wodogłowia...U mnie był zonk, niby taka mała skala, ale faktycznie, im bardziej ku górze, tym bardziej wyolbrzymiałam odpowiednie elementy, myśląc że wyglądają ok.
btw. ech ten mirror, zazdroszczę ludziom, którym przy mirrorowaniu nie wychodzą żadne błędy ;3; U mnie zawsze coś jest, ale ja to w ogóle, rysuję bez lini pomocniczych, z przechyloną głową, przygarbiona i do góry nogami, więc co się dziwić xD
To bardzo dobry tutek, muszę przyznać :> Więcej wnosi niż takie typowe step-by-step.

Superzaste i przydatne porady. Zachęciłyby mnie nawet do rysowania, gdyby nie to, że jak wstanę za dziesięć minut i wezmnę kartkę, już nic nie przyjdzie mi do głowy, a to, co jednak przyjdzie, będzie ssało.
Ale naprawdę fajne podpatrzeć takie sztuczki, to tak, jak zaglądać rysującemu przez ramię (uwielbiam)

Ciesze się w takim razie. Starałam się przekazać swoja kilkuletnia wiedzę. Ot po prostu zboczenie zawodowe: tłumaczyć wszystko zrozumiale krok po kroku.

I especially find the last bit of this tutorial very helpful - the "colour adjusting"-things~ I always have problems with choosing nice colours, and very often the whole picture turns out very imbalanced. Thanks for all those tips~

When you scan your lineart and you spot the mistakes, for example that some parts are too big or too small, you can resize them digitally instead of redrawing the whole picture.The action of resizing things in Photoshop is called a free transformer.
