I'm learning to draw properly. So... I'm making a thread about it and the places I learn from.

Currently using Paint .Net Which is a pretty sucky program, but after seeing what ppl, do wiht regular paint here, I figure I'll give it a chance.

First picture: An eye, watched this on youtube.

Wow... I may have to check this tutorial out.
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Ok, just some quick advice to anyone trying to learn how to draw... For a long time I thought that the first line was a deciding factor, but I have learned that that is not the case. Draw weak but fat lines that allow for a lot of interpretation... So that you can shave of what you don't need and what doesn't fit.
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Yep. Always start with a rough sketch, then define it and make it cleaner
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

WOW! This is LEARNING how to draw?? I have no hope... hee hee
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Of course you do Gator, I just followed instructions:)

Anyways, I'm gonna start drawing by hand a little bit, so I'm only gonna post pics I scan (read most likely none.) However, I will post links to the tutorials I'm using here.

Pretty good one on drawing female bodies... And to catch the attention of the people here... s/he starts with talking about breasts...

Oh this tutorial, it's ages old. Though that doesn't mean it isn't good. On the contrary, it's what I used when I first started out. Man, that takes me back, back when I was young and naive.
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Heh, It's nice to know I'm finding the good stuff then Oni:p
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Indeed, though when I found it it was in page form not some kind of player. I can't remember the site either otherwise I'd post it here.
 
Re: Wonderboy's learning to draw thread.

Well, I'm deserately trying to get accustomed to drawing with a tablet. This image is unfortunately very large, as I didn't realize I had been drawing in A3 size... Zoom function FTW. Anyways, artists and couch.critics alike, how can I improve my drawing style, and should I focus on using a lot of time on a pic or just do 'em quick like this? For learning purposes.

Heh, you kids these days, with your talent, and your free time, and your internet artistic tutorials... Admittedly, this is all well done. I tip my hat of St. Nick to you.
