Hey, what is it you guys? It is your boy, Diamonds here at comments and graphics and you already know what day it is today. It is any Monday. Today we're going to draw anime for you guys on Monday. Now today I got a good one for you guys about the freeze y'all in place with this but today is some free hand stuff, some off the top tight shit and I put a poll on my YouTube community page and you guys voted for this and so I really enjoyed making this but I hope you guys really enjoyed it but enough of that let's jump right into it. So today while brainstorming on what I wanted to make it was a little bit of a challenge but to me I want to just think a little bit different and a bit different with the body poses and the idea of what I got to draw this character it really came from a sports channel I was watching I was watching some Olympic sports and this woman did this pose and I was like that looks really cool and I told myself I'm going to try my best to draw this pose and I only got to see it for that instant and so I do want to apologize now ahead of time because one of the arms looks kind of wonky I had it kind of stretched behind her because this is a kind of a side angle and I've said this before in my previous videos that side angles are not my forte and the theme that I wanted to give my character was more of a art theme so in one hand I have her holding a marker and the other hand I have her holding a paintbrush and near the end of the video I have the paintbrush splattering paint all around the stuff and looks really cool and I wanted to give her you know kind of a more graffiti-esque style I just did a graffiti image and so my graffiti more out there's boosted right now so everything I'm thinking about is kind of graffiti orientated and I've been having a lot of fun making graffiti art with my pictures right now and so when setting this character up I was trying to decide what kind of close to give her and I decided to give her a skirt and I decided to do what I usually do which is cut off the legs around like just above the kneecaps what I usually do nowadays just because I'm not a huge fan of drawing fully-liked characters because sometimes to me I just don't draw the legs properly it's one of my hardest things and when it came to the hair I decided to give her more of a circular shaped more smooth hair when I decided to make her hair I also wanted to give her like these flowing pigtails near the end and you'll see that and I wanted to kind of just fade out kind of twirl around a little bit here and there and I thought it would be pretty cool if I just let them look like they're flowing in the way because she looks like she's performing some type of acrobatic move or whatnot and so I thought that might go with the whole entire scene. Now one of my gripes that I had making this image something I struggled with that actually turned into something very easily done for me after I figured out what to do with it just because I became lazy and it actually worked out very nicely it is the hands. To me the hands should have been a very difficult thing to do the hands is usually one of my hardest things to draw and with this image I was having issues drawing her index finger pointed up and stuff like that and then I was just telling myself how am I going to draw the inside of her palm showing that's holding the parts and the components and near the end of the video I told myself you know what instead of just drawing that in how about I just fill it in with black so you can't see it and it actually looks very good so the only thing I have showing out on the hands are just the couple of the fingers sticking out here in there and those are very simple to draw when you're drawing like a couple fingers on the knuckle instead of drawing a fully fledged hand and so that's what helped me out and just a word of advice for anyone who's getting into the digital drawing game who just picked up themselves a drawing tablet who wants to start drawing digitally and stuff like that. My word of advice for you guys is to just experiment and have fun with your drawings and to always keep a reference on your side if you need to help drawing on a tablet is nothing alike like drawing on paper and so I really really recommend that you just go out there and just experiment have fun have a reference and I cannot stress this enough but please stick to your fundamentals with your skeletal forms thinker second layer and then you're finally your line art layer please make sure you follow those because it really does help your flow if you have any mistakes you know it makes everything seamless when you follow a type of order when you're creating your people your images and stuff like that it can also be a lot of fun to just to show your own development like the way how I do it and if you're having issues finding ideas what to create this is kind of like a little pro tip whenever you find something that might jog your creativity let's say you see something on TV or you see something on YouTube and you like oh my god I want to draw this and my own special way the best thing I can say is as soon as you see it document it take a screenshot take a picture of it does not matter what it is do what you got to do to get it because it's something really easy just to forget what you might have thought about earlier and then we go back later on the try finding it you might not be able to so when you first see it just document it that's what I usually do if I see something that's very interesting like a cool pose or something like that I will quickly as possible document it if it's a screenshot or if I'm taking a picture of it my phone you know that's just the way how you got to do it but we are now reaching that point of the video where it's time for me to do the line art or I speed things up and you know all that other stuff but you know who it is it is your boy dominance here at commonsense graphics I hope you guys really enjoyed my experiences going through with the creation of this video I hope you guys enjoyed it the end product is amazing rate comment subscribe please hit that like button and bell icon to get all the notifications and all that bullshit and yeah you know your boy out.
