Drawing Tips!

Most new artists make mistakes, even i do when i don't concentrate. 

What i'm talking about though is getting stuck at the anatomy stage , or thinking too much of details when the only thing you need to think about is: THE SKETCH.

Nothing too detailed; looks horrible LOL

"I only know how to draw a stickman" Well you're practically an artist.

I may get more detailed how to construct these but this doesn't take more than 30 seconds, and it shouldn't. Don't think "Yo is that even looking like a leg" "how do i even turn that into an arm later" all we're trying to do is use our imagination to see what goes where at this point.

This is phase 2. I have 3 rough sketch stages, and you shouldn't try skipping any, you'll end up stuck at some point😂


It does not matter if it looks just a bit dodgy, that's why it's called a SKETCH, do not think about how perfect the sketch looks, because it's supposed to look rough.

You can now give your character more form.

Phase 3 is preparing for the final stage.

When you've done the last 2 , this part becomes easy because you've laid the foundation to get here. You can now start thinking about where things go with guidelines you've drawn already (I'll make a more step by step detailed post next time about how to draw everything)


This is how you should think when you're drawing though, don't be overyly concerned when you start from scratch, that overthinking will slow you down and you won't meet your objective most of the time ):
