yo im curious how did u learn anatomy. scratch that, how did you learn to draw in general. everyone's always saying "watch anatomy vids" idk man i don't know what videos

ofc there's things like anatomy videos and even full textbooks on the topic; I usually end up on pinterest finding my references, though.

this post is a link to a free anatomy book that I often study.

I don't have any anatomy videos to link you to because I hate video tutorials.

#hailey teaches #hailey answers #I hope this helps anon!!! #I hope it isn't a 'my perspective is too advanced to stoop down and teach newer artists' thing. #this is by no means a comprehensive tutorial!! there's a lot of other things too this is just my basics!! #hailey's drawing again #putting it under art tag to be easier to find

Found some practice sketches I did bout a month ago of me reteaching myself how to draw best boy Bullfrog,,, again lol

A different theme I did with these though is that if he was injured I would fix em up (The right column is the main product of this 👍)

#in conclusion: he is generally very round yet has very sharp features #some angles are incredibly difficult with the circle technique doh #arthrobug #bugbrain #art #captain laserhawk #bullfrog #clh bullfrog #clh #clhabdr #doodles #sketches #practice #honestly should I make a short and basic tutorial of how I draw out bullfrog and rayman? might help s o m e one lmao

I literally NEVER paint with watercolors or draw buildings but I’ve been wanting to learn how and get better at it so here’s this little garden shop I made today while listening to a historical fiction novel about Anastasia Romanov which was FANTASTIC like, I kept forgetting that I actually know the story of the Romanov’s and getting surprised by the events.

#I followed a YouTube tutorial for the basic design and then added my own spin #this one isn’t any sort of fanart #but I’m trying to document my process #drawing #watercolor #I learned a lot and it was fun! #my art <3 #my artwork #artist #artists on tumblr

i’ve started teaching myself (again for like the 6th time since i was 14) how to draw people and i’m rly enjoying it for the first time i’m so excited.. i’ve always wanted to be able to draw like people and objects and scenes yknow. art. but never had the patience or a learning mindset now i find i’m actually enjoying the process and even though i’m so bad at it i can see how i’ll improve and augh. feels good

#i took enough art in high school that i can like. hold a pencil and do basic composition and colour theory #and some other basic like perspective techniques and some body/face proportions yknow how art class is #but i’m teaching myself with tutorials and whatnot and just Doing it like just drawing stuff #doing it stupid and doing it a lot #the face i drew today was way better than the one i drew yesterday :) #p

[txmxkis]

okay but where the fuck does one even begin to learn how to draw i-

#i mean #i have an itty bitty amount of experience because of what i had to do for architecture #but that was like.... buildings. #how tf do you even begin to draw a person #HOW. #my brain is self destructing #do i need to start hoarding youtube tutorials or something????? help #im trying to get more into it cause i think it'll be another good outlet for me but. uhhhhhh #so far ive just been using references to just kinda practice basics but. is that correct #idk man i'm trying #[☂] — bunny babbles

Okay so I was going to do a really involved review of the Unhinged LotR Mobile Game (otherwise known as LotR: Heroes of Middle-earth) but I'm tired and don't have energy for that, so here are the quick hits:

It's a gacha game, and it's published by EA. Draw your own conclusions.

This review is based off of 100% free gameplay. I have paid $0 for this game.

Lore: Good. 8/10. Game is based on the book and plot elements were clearly designed by someone familiar with the source material. Hero lineup consists of characters from the book, characters that were mentioned in passing in the book but have been a little bit fleshed out and expanded upon, and completely original characters. The latter fit in well with the lore and have convincing names that are, for the most part, based in Tolkien's actual languages or borrowed from elsewhere in the legendarium. Dialogue is lifted directly out of the book in general; when it deviates from these the language used is noticeably different. Minus one half point for that, minus one point for using a ring of power as a leveling mechanic, and minus one half point for female dwarves not having beards.

Gameplay: Typical. It's a gacha game. 6/10. There's never enough energy to actually get anything done in one sitting, as per usual, purchase packs are WAY overpriced, and no particular effort has been expended to make plotlines coincide with the combat mechanic especially well. There has been one special event since I've been playing, where they released Arwen as a hero. There were six stages to the event and I was able to complete five. The sixth required me to have leveled Arwen to five stars in order to complete, and in order to do that I would have had to have either paid $20 for the real world money Arwen pack or got incredibly lucky with the RNG on the in-game gems Arwen pack. However, I am not torn up about this as there was no plot to the event and the rewards were gold and upgrade materials; nice to have, but easy enough to get elsewhere. I am unsure if there are any plans to repeat this event or whether Arwen and other event characters will be available after their events have ended, and this information does have a significant impact on my final opinion of the game. However I'm overall satisfied; it seems to me that the highest levels of this character are locked behind a paywall, but I got a good solid hero that I'm actively using on one of my teams. Points added back for not locking auto-battle until you've manually completed the battle already and for forwarding uncollected daily rewards to your in-game inbox, great quality of life features that other gacha games would be wise to take note of.

Graphics. Fine. 6/10. This rating will doubtless go up over time, as the game is currently plagued by graphical glitches. No apparent impact on actual gameplay but there's quite a bit of A-posing (Frodo and Sam have a combo attack that seems to cause all goblins to A-pose), the Mordor Taskmaster/Úzhan occasionally interacts with the wrong character during one of his skill animations, sometimes when closing out a gear inspection window and going back to a hero's main page will cause them to sprout a second head, which is a bit terrifying, and a few other minor gltiches that are really weighing down the score in this department. But as I've said before, the art style is really fun and unique, I love almost all the character designs, and there are a lot of really good artistic choices (for example: the homepage link to the events page takes the form of a stained glass window, with a really pretty image of whichever character is in focus in the current event). The only probably permanent issue that drags this point down is that some of the combat backgrounds are a bit silly; the heroes are standing on water, or obviously about to run into a wall as they run from one combat stage to the next. But overall the game is really nice to look at. The music is nice too.

Plot. I'm not gonna give the plot a number rating because I like it, but it's not for everyone. You, the player, find a random ring on the ground and put it on because you're not genre-savvy I guess. This ring gives you the power to influence characters from LotR in order to direct them as heroes on the battlefield. How this works is not expounded upon, and it doesn't matter because it's a leveling mechanic. But some other nefarious person is also influencing characters from LotR and they're trying to change the plot, and you have to stop them. Or at any rate, that's what I was told? It seems that sometimes I'm also helping them -- but as this is all just an elaborate excuse to pit completely random teams of heroes together I expect it wasn't thought out quite as thoroughly as it it should have been. Or maybe I just haven't got far enough in the plot to understand it yet. I'm always open to that. Anyhow, I've gotten invested in the subplots mainly through the mechanics of 'it's really mean to Aragorn' and 'they made Uglúk really funny.'

Overall I'm not gonna give it a number rating. Would I recommend it? If you like gacha games, yes. If you like that kind of plot, I'd recommend it just to run through the light and shadow campaigns and look at the pretty graphics.

EDIT: forgot to mention before that this game has been out for roughly one (1) month so that's why I'm so forgiving of the graphical errors.

#unhinged lotr mobile game saga #a couple more notes that i couldnt figure out where to put: #im active in the arena but sort of casually #i regularly win battles and am moving up in the ranks despite not paying for the game #so it seems to me that i can be competitive without forking up #at least competitive enough to satisfy myself #also so i first downloaded this game to make fun of it right? and the tutorial was like 'hey you can open a bonus chest every 4 hours' #'why dont you open one now' #i was like okay yeah sure this is pretty basic w/e right #so i pop open the bonus chest and it gives you usually 2 hero shards although there is a chance for more #and a couple of other things #well it gave me halbarad character shards and to be quite honest that was when it hooked me #good job game you know exactly how to draw me in #i havent unlocked halbarad yet because outside of the chests hes only accessible through supplies with challenge coins #and challenge coins are a PAIN to get hold of #but im almost there! unreasonably excited #might post more about all that later

Art Tip #1 - Color Theory: A Crash Course

Art isn't complete without colors, right? Unless you'd consider a blank white sheet of paper as art, then by all means...

In today's first stop at the Art Terminal, we will be learning how to use colors using Color Theory! Being knowledgeable about basic color theory can really help you develop your skills as an artist no matter what medium you'll be using - be it traditional art, digital art, or even a mix of both! It may seem confusing at first but with this guide, you'll be making well-coordinated compositions with flying colors in no time!

PART 1: How to use the Color Wheel

This infamous wheel by Isaac Newton helps you see the relationships between the colors.

Keep in mind these 3 categories:

⓵ Primary Colors: Red┃Blue┃Yellow These are the first three basic colors - all other colors can be created by mixing them in different ways. Tip: mixing all three creates the color brown! ⓶ Secondary Colors: Purple (red+blue)┃Green (blue+yellow)┃Orange (yellow+red) If you've noticed, these colors are created by mixing our primary colors. ⓷ Tertiary Colors: Red-Orange┃Red-Purple┃Blue-Purple┃Blue-Green┃Yellow-Green┃Yellow-Orange As you might have guessed, we get these colors by mixing our primary and secondary colors.

Part 2: What are the Color Properties?

Keep in mind Color has 3 primary properties:

⓵ Hue: the colors in their purest state - or in other words, a color's name.

⓶ Saturation: the brightness or dullness of a color - the intensity or purity of a hue. Tip: High Saturation/Saturated = color looks very bright ┃ Low Saturation/Desaturation = color looks washed out or greyed out

⓷ Value: the degree of lightness or darkness of a hue. Tip: There are 3 ways to change a color's value: Shade┃Tint ┃Tone

Shade/Shading: a shade is a color that is produced by adding black.

Tint: a tint is a color that is produced by adding white.

Tone: a tone is a color that is produced by adding grey.

PART 3: What is Color Harmony?┃What Color Combinations or Schemes can we use?

Go back to the Color Wheel as it is a good reference in helping you create appealing schemes. Here are 6 common combinations you can apply in your work:

⓵ Analogous: uses colors (around 2-4) that are next to each other in the color wheel - Match them!

⓶ Complementary: uses colors that are opposite or across of each other on the color wheel - if you can't match 'em, clash 'em with their opposites! Tip: matching these colors creates great contrast and visual interest so they can overpower each other sometimes so keep that in mind.

⓷ Split-Complementary: 1 base color then 2 colors adjacent to its complementary color - if the contrast too much, split them!

⓸ Tetradic: uses 2 complementary pairs. This forms a rectangle on the wheel - if you need more variations go double complementary!

⓹ Triadic: 3 colors that are evenly spaced out in the color wheel. You're free to choose from a variety!

⓺ Monochromatic: uses different tones, shades, and tints of a singular color. Sometimes it just works!

PART 4: What is Color Temperature?

Ever wonder why some compositions feel cold or hot? It is a fact that color has the ability to evoke feelings or emotions. As such, color temperature is the one responsible for this - it is the "warmth" or "coolness" of a color.

Warm colors: Reds┃Oranges┃Yellows Generally seen as colors that are bright, cheerful, active, or happy

Cool Colors: Purples┃Blues┃Greens Generally seen as colors that are dark, mysterious, melancholic, or gloomy

And that concludes this stop for today! These tips are a lot to take in, we feel you, and that's alright - come back to this station when you need a quick reference. We hope you learned a lot from this and that you'll be able to apply them in your paintings or digital illustrations!

Now pack your art supplies and start creating! Safe travels~

I was reorganizing my fails when I randomly decided to retouch an oc. I drew the 2nd one around 2022 and it looked realistic to me then, didn't even know there parts I could improve on until I put my hands on it again. Wow. I just felt a lil proud of myself to see all the better changes as result of applying stuff I newly learned.

It looks so normal on my pc and straight up too saturated on my phone though 💀

#digital painting #digital art #digital illustration #digital drawing #digital artwork #what a difference a year can make #and hearing about even simple information like how to draw 3D objects and very basic color theory changes so much #I retouched it for a tutorial a follower requested

[atinyladybug-art]

Not me binge watching art tutorials for the past 2-3 hours 💀💀💀

#alt rambles #oh boy im looking at the tutorials and im looking at my own art and im like #WOW i need to go back to the basics I skipped a LOT of basics and fundamentals <- has been drawing since I could hold a pencil #cant wait for my tablet pen to arrive so i can put the theory to the test #im probably going to go through some art style changes in the coming weeks and months...

[ladybugkisses]

Hi I know it might be a weird question but your lackadaisical style is so cute and you mixed your style and it's own so nicely I was wondering if you have tips on how to do that? (Either i suck at drawing cats or I'm missing a step rip)

awww thank you!! ! 💕🌹💕 here goes Something i hope will help at least a little,

draw from reference until you find your style- i used the pilot's style as reference when i first drew my ♥️ Lackasona ♥️ but if you compare that to the most recent art of her you'll see some differences (mainly made to how i draw her face lmao)

keep drawing and trying different things if something isn't working out, it's okay if you think it doesn't look that great at first, that's what practice is for!

AND! !! check out Tracy's ♣️ Construction ♣️ tutorial, it gives a good idea of what basics you should do before getting to the details :^)

#i wanted to do a little step by step thing of what my process is and ALAS I HAVE NO TIME. Tracy's tutorial is basically that though #anyway. drawing anything the first few times is always gonna feel like an ordeal so. DON'T GIVE UP #asks #anonymous #how to tag
