hi!!!!!! i love your art its super super incredibly pretty :') I wanted to ask if you had any tutorials on how you draw hair? especially for someone like dave's. I would love to see your step by step process!! thanks for sharing your pretty art, it's always a joy to see your posts on my dash ♥
Aww this made me smile so much😊
thank you! ❤️
I spend a lot of time on pinterest looking at pictures of various hairstyles from different angles to get an idea of how hair works as well as study shapes and hair flow. I like pictures of real people so I can keep things looking natural, but I like to slightly exaggerate volumes and shapes to make it more balanced and interesting. I still get frustrated a lot though (especially with longer hairstyles), but since I've been drawing Dave so much I'm a little bit more confident with his hair so sure! I'd be glad to share my process if it helps! :)
(Long post ahead!)
COOL KID HAIRSTYLE STEP BY STEP 😎
1. First I decide where to draw the hairline. I usually start with bangs and draw an overall idea of how the hair will shape around the face.
2. For Dave I like to separate his hair in three parts, adding more volume on one side (part1+2) and keeping the other (part 3) more flat. The hair flow from parts 1, 2 and 3 go in different directions. It helps to think in 3D here especially with the bangs part.
I give more volume to the bangs by adding a little gap from the hairline to the top of the bangs where the hair bends on itself.
Also I keep the hair shorter on the flat part (part 3) and I like his hair to be a bit wavy so I avoid sharp edges and use curved lines.
3. I then lower the current layer opacity to be able to draw over it and see more clearly.
4.Then I add more details on a new layer. Since I prefer the roots and the hair closer to the face to be darker I add more pressure to my lines there. I like to add some loose strands sticking out but you can totally skip that if you like a cleaner look. (I like messy hair ;p)
5. If I find that it still looks a bit flat or unbalanced I use the select tool while pushing the ctrl key and dragging the selection in the direction I want the hair to move to.
(I'm using Paint Tool Sai here but other drawing programs also have some kind of select tool) Et Voilà!! :)
**coloring**
for rendering I first change the sketch lines to a color closer to the hair. I set the sketch/lineart layer on ''multiply'' and create a second layer below for colors. I then add the base color, put the bigger shadows (if you're using a reference it's easier to see where shadows should be) and then draw some individual strands with a darker shade. I also add a darker shades to the hair around the face and roots.
aaaand we're done!
btw the results change depending on the brush I'm using. I went for a rougher look here but sometimes I use smooth brushes to make it look softer.
This is actually my first tutorial ever but hopefully it was clear enough? Let me know if you'd like more explanations on something and congrats if you made it this far ;)

ok anyone who plays genshin can u help what artifact do u think is better for razor cus the glad gives him the 4 piece set but the other one has crit dmg n crit rate so like 😕 idk
Because it has crit rate + really good crit dmg, gladiator 4 piece set bonus isnt really that helpful if he is your dps not as much as gennerally better substats. Plus the energy recharge pretty helpful in general imo
in inazuma there is this guy called Kurisu and he is clearly from another nation, what if his name is Kris and he just changed it so locals can say his name easier he seems to be an older foreigner in inazuma

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:
The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!
So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:
And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:
It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting:
So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:
But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!
I only ever saw the part where people started drawing the limbs outrageously long and genuinely wanted to know how to fix that, so I’m really thankful to see the rest.
