Aright so heres what ive been doing through all suadwm thats been working for me. First drawing your article of clothing in the desired color you want the pattern to be in: 

Then i make the pattern on layers clicked off as “Clipping Group” so they stay on the shirt layer like this: 

I then select a darker red and draw the first stripes of the pattern. I prefer to start with the thickest stribe on my pattern (though flannel patterns can differ). I like to make the direction of the stribes different where the fabric on a shirt would be turned, like the sleeves in a different direction from the torso. I then set the opacity down a little (in this example opacity 73%) : 

Then a new layer, also in the clipping group, I select a darker red, this one almost black and draw new slimmer stripes going in the opposite direction of the previous ones. I also set the opacity down a bit on these so the stripes overlap each other: 

I repeat this in as many colors and thickness of stripes as i want on my pattern, in this example a light red: 

And in the end you get this result! I like to take a color that differs a lot from the original color just to add a little extra spark (in this case it’s yellow): 

It’s been forever but I did this ajshaj

Quick notes:- I use Paint Tool SAI 2- some of the tools and layer names are in Russian but it all should still be understandable I hope

So here’s a tutorial on I do my simple coloring

There’s not much to it but maybe this can help someone

@ekushv

Apologies for taking so long on getting back to you~ I wanted to put this together~

(mostly to see if I could haha)Hope this is a sufficient answer!!! Here are the links to FireAlpaca and Alpaca Douga~FireAlpaca->AlpacaDouga->

No I uh– I’m really glad that you do?? Whoa!! Thank you!

If it’s hard for you, here are a few posts to help you out! (You’ve probably seen them going around, but here you go anyway, all together (kinda)) [x] [x] [x] Use refs, and keep practising. At some point, you won’t really need references anymore. I’m halfway there, and it’s such a satisfying feelingfhjsdk. And if I made it, well, then, so can you. I believe in you <3

And as for how I tackle them myself… here is a quick, pretty lame summary haha:

Hmm you’re incredibly vague so I just did a process thing. Hope this helps! Also generally don’t shade with black/gray unless you know there’s a certain look you’re going for. 

aw man thanks anon!!! hmm im not the best artist out there but i can try to give u some tips!

-this is just my opinion, but only use bases as references and dont actually use em! learning from scratch would help u alot more 

-hair has mass/volume (unless like the character is balding/is designed that way/etc) , idk how to explain but heres an example:

-try using ur own hands as reference! dont be afraid to look up references if u need em theres like a million of them online

-if u cant figure smth out break them down into basic shapes first then start from there (kudos to @firecrier for this tip btw!!!) for ex:

and honestly i suck at hands but honestly just keep practicing i actually developed how i draw hands from making danganronpa sprites lol but uhh i usually just draw things from scratch like no basic lines or anything unless im practicing my anatomy but ye!! hope this helped!

Hi anon!! :D I would love to share my tips with you! I’ll share my favorite technique today! 

have a great day and have lots of fun making your awesome art! 

<3,
