A Few People Have Asked About This Recently So I Tried To Break Down My Method Of Painting Faces To The

A few people have asked about this recently so I tried to break down my method of painting faces to the best of my ability. I personally like to use gritty chalky brushes, and this particular painting was mainly done with this brush by Mark Winters.

HEY ARTISTS!

Do you design a lot of characters living in not-modern eras and you’re tired of combing through google for the perfect outfit references? Well I got good news for you kiddo, this website has you covered! Originally @modmad made a post about it, but her link stopped working and I managed to fix it, so here’s a new post. Basically, this is a costume rental website for plays and stage shows and what not, they have outfits for several different decades from medieval to the 1980s. LOOK AT THIS SELECTION:

OPEN ANY CATEGORY AND OH LORDY–

There’s a lot of really specific stuff in here, I design a lot of 1930s characters for my ask blog and with more chapters on the way for the game it belongs to I’m gonna be designing more, and this website is going to be an invaluable reference. I hope this can be useful to my other fellow artists as well! :)

what are your brush settings for clip studio?

here ya go:

(i hope you can even read all the settings ahh if not i can upload a better picture)

1. default “darker pencil” brush that i use for sketching and lining

2. & 3. is from here: https://gumroad.com/l/NBlG# (it’s the josuke’s eyebrows), i use this for painting. The first one should be default settings i believe, and the second is a modified version that’s better for blending colors! also i just realized that i changed the pressure settings on that one soo here are both

4. This is the default oil paint but quite heavily modified i think so it’s really good for painting 

and i forgot to include the G-pen that i use for coloring but that’s just the default settings!

Not sure if I've asked this, butt in regards to your last picture you uploaded and all of your drawings, how do you know where to line up the head/cranium with the rest of the spine in cases where the head is turned or posed?

well that is simple, the head ideally sits in the middle of the spine…

positioning the head is not the difficult part, in most cases ‘artists’ don’t need to make things ‘look’ right but make it ‘feel’ right. specially when drawing idealized and/or from imagination altering proportions and poses is rather common ⁽ˢᵘᵖᵉʳʰᵉʳᵒ ᶜᵒᵐᶦᶜ ᵃʳᵗᶦˢᵗˢ ᶠᵒʳ ᵉˣᵃᵐᵖᶫᵉ⁾

the easiest way⁽ᶦᶰ ᵐʸ ᵒᵖᶦᶰᶦᵒᶰ⁾ is to use the shoulders. Most of the time when drawing poses i will actually place the shoulders first and then draw the head. Maybe try ‘gesture drawing’ as exercise.

Hey, there! Just saw your animated comic of MLB and I'm totally and utterly in love with it. Sorry to bother you but I really wanna know how do you make some panels animated? Which program do you use after you draw frame by frame? I'm a complete novice and failed a lot of times so I could really use a helpful advice ❤
