Description
Hey,It's been a while since I last submitted a drawing, but uni is keeping me quite busy these days. And my inspiration also decided to go on holiday.
But there is one thing that I promised for some interested fellow deviant'ers some time ago, and that 'thing' is a drawing tutorial. So... here it comes!
Click the 'Download' button for a full view.
I decided to simply describe my whole drawing process, along with some illustrations for more clarity. The tips and tricks mentioned inside may be already heard by you, but I never ever said that I'm using anything special.
After all, it's always mostly about patience and motivation.
P.S. Please don't use too much critique, since it's my 1st tutorial ever. *puppy eyes* If I get scared, I might never get round to doing another one!
Thanks very much to *redheadstock for wonderful brushes:

I usually work with very smooth paper, but this misty effect, utilizing toothy watercolor paper, is really inspiring! I think I shall give it a whirl! Yay!

I've been searching for a very smooth paper in the stores for a long time, but before I found it I fell in love with this grainy watercolour one.

I shall! If you want a really pretty work-surface, though, look at Rives BFK. It's like suede. It's a little hard to find, though.

so all you do is building up layers by shading lightly than adding more pressure onto parts that are dark and leaving some lghtly shaded or not shaded at all? By the way this is a useful toturial better than some i've read.Thinking of doing another one?

Yeah, something as simple as that.
I'm not against doing another tut, but maybe not in the very near future.
