Hello everyone and happy Sunday! ๐Ÿฅฐ

After lots of writing, filming, and editing, here is this month's tutorial video! ๐Ÿฅณ In this tutorial video I'll lead you guys through my process of how I analyze and break down a reference to stylize it into a drawing! โœจ Usually my tutorials are mostly straightforward how-to videos, but in this video I'll be sharing more of the thought process and important things to think about whenever you draw a character from reference! โ˜บ๏ธ I hope you guys find it helpful!! So grab a blanket and a snack and enjoy ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅ

โœ๏ธBrushes used for sketching:

  • Edge Control by Jingsketch
  • Marker Multiply by Max Ulichney
  • Click here to see all my favorite brushes with links to the ones I used in this video!

Wow this was amazingly helpful! I didnt even know I needed it until I saw it ๐Ÿ˜‚ The breakdown of your process really makes it easy to keep it in the back of my mind while working on my own styltilization. Thank you so much for this tutorial! I'm probably going to watch this many more times in the future โค
