In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Take a step back and look at where your sketch could use improvement. Erase as necessary and keep sketching until you're happy with it. Add in all the details, like pockets, hair, and facial features, that were left out of the initial rough sketch. How much detail you add will depend on the style you've chosen to draw in. A realistic drawing will require the most detail, including detailed facial features, folds and creases in clothing, and anatomically correct muscle shapes. A very cartoony drawing won't require much more than an simplified version of body anatomy and basic, bold shapes for clothing and hair. Pay attention to what details about the inspiration you're drawing from stand out and define the character, from the obvious things like hair color to the subtle things like the size of the eyebrows. Carrying these details over to your fan art is what will make your fan art recognizable as fan art, and not an original character. Once you have the final sketch, trace it over with a pen, going extra slowly and carefully to avoid mistakes. This way you can erase all the un-needed lines in the sketch. The most common coloring materials used are markers and colored pencils. If you wish to keep it un-colored, it's best to shade it with a pencil. The easiest way to start shading is to imagine a light source off in one corner or side of your drawing. Sides of objects and body parts opposite the light source will be the darkest, and should be shaded appropriately. Options for coloring include: colored pencils, illustrating markers such as copic markers, and digital coloring using a program like Photoshop. For Photoshop, you'll have to first scan your inked sketch and then open the scanned image in Photoshop.
Summary: Flesh out the sketch. Go over your sketch with pen. Add color or shade to the character you have finished tracing.

Problem: Article: When you sit down to talk to your parents about schools, you don't want them to be completely surprised by the fact that you want to change. If you have an emergency, like severe bullying, you should talk to your parents immediately. Otherwise, let them get a sense of your situation before you ask them to talk with you. Make it clear to them that you're unhappy in your school. Every day, tell them one little thing that bothered you at school when they ask about your day. For example, let them know, "We got our math tests back today, and I didn't do so well. I went to ask my teacher a few questions about what I got wrong, but she didn't have time to talk to me." This is a classic part of persuasion in any situation. Be especially kind to your parents in the few weeks before you want to actually ask them to switch schools. Don't argue with them or talk back to them. Do the little things they ask the first time like cleaning your room and picking up after yourself. You don't want to sit down and talk to your parents about switching schools while they are stressed or in a hurry. Find them when they are relaxing and ask them if they have a minute to talk to you. For example, a good time to talk might be after dinner once everyone is full and the house is clean. Sometimes it can be difficult to talk to your parents about certain situations. This especially helps if you're not sure how to let your parents know you're being bulled. After you give them the letter, they'll come to approach the conversation with you. This can take some of the pressure off of starting a serious conversation. Especially if you're being bullied, you can use a letter to let your parents know exactly what your bullies are doing to you, so you don't have to say it out loud, but your parents will still know how serious your situation is.
Summary:
Bring up the subject gradually. Do nice things for your parents before you try to talk to them. Pick a good time to talk. Write them a letter.
