(Apologies if you've answered this before) Sometimes I consider starting to learn how to draw, but I've been on the fence about it for a while now. Any tips for how one could get started in drawing based on your own experience? Your blog makes me smile have a lovely day/night :)
Aww, thatās so nice! Thank you! I am really passionate about the thoughts of mixing history and culture with characters and stuff. XD So I am having a blast, much more than I did trying to work with the loose canon of Osomatsu san.
So I started drawing when I was about 12 or 14 or something in that age range and it was because my friend and I had OCs that were wolves and lions and we just wanted to share our stories and character designs. At first I just did from memory. I really liked South Park too... so my first sketch book was just South Park.
Dragons and Wolves and stuff too cause yeah. I just did it from my head. Which worked, I got ideas out and even though I would be 12 with these I guess, uh. Yeah. I learned to draw South Park by watching it and drawing along. Back then in 00s we didnāt have Youtube. So now I would say, go and look up drawing tutorials for youtube and stuff. I later in about 06 or so got into anime (who doesnāt) and started to just try to emulate Detective Conan style shit...
I again, still, had NO technique or skills. I just watched Conan and looked at the manga and picked up and a lot of my first stuff was just reproductions...
I also didnāt have a computer, nor any drawing tools... so I didnāt know about layers and I didnāt even know about how to draw traditional besides just a pencil... so all of my stuff was just that.
I pretty much stuck with Pencil Renderings and MS-Paint with a mouse. -- Sorry this is long winded. My way I started and got into drawing is so different than what people these days can do... because you guys, everyone, almost, has a digital tablet at their disposal (you can use a smartphone to draw on!!!) youtube and a sea of references that load fast as fuck. Servers and forums with fast advice and people there who wanna help. Not slow forums or anything.
So the best tip is just draw what you want, regardless of if itāsĀ āgood or notā. - This is, if you want to just produce for the sake of putting your ideas out there. If learning actual technical ability is what you want to do instead...Ā
Start piece by piece, always use a reference, Look on youtube for beginner drawing tutorials and just kinda follow along like bob ross style. Watch how people IRL move. Think of everything as tubes and shapes.Ā You wont get good overnight. You wont get good in a few years. So much goes down to muscle memory too. Take your time. Especially with digital, you can constantly go back and make adjustments. Donāt be scared to do that with layers!! Resize, crop, adjust, fix,. Not all works need to be finished. Sketching is the best way to learn. Donāt spend too much time on something sometimes. Sometimes itās best to just do lots of fast sketches!
the first part you should do is learn how to do simple shapes and burn that into your muscle memory. learn to make a pattern for how you draw things because it will help with consistency in the end.
the most fun time I have drawing is sketching... sorry, i hope this is at least motivational in that we all start from SOMETHING and get somewhere even if we donāt practice dilligently... my art quality began to falter around 2014 or so and has stagnated for the most part.... my stuff in 2009 was actually better than it is now in a lot of ways, especially the colouring and stuff.
(this is from 2008 before my passion was completely removed from my body by my teachers, obivously i know better about perspective and stuff) but I actually used to have fun trying new things. So experiment A LOT. Now I canāt really be arsed...
(this is one of the last pieces I actually put some effort into and itās date 2015. There has been a few others here and there but this was a try at a very angled 1p perspective) Also I drew with a program that came out in 2002 until 2015 so!! (now I use CSP)
i doubt i helped. but just start. just start by putting your ideas somewhere out there.
