@wowee-art is the blog I post these doodles in ^^

How do you draw so welllllllll, like how

Welllll I honestly don't know how to respond to this lol. I've been asked this a lot, so all I can offer is my process.

I start with a thumbnail sketch and try not to spend too long on it. Sometimes I'll already have an idea of what I want to do, but most of the time I need a little warm-up for the concepts.

Then I'll move on to sketch 2, which is laying down more shapes and where I want shading to be. Where the weight will be, proportions, etc. After Sketch 2 is the final sketch, which I sometimes swap out for lineart. This is when I refine things and lay down the map to follow for linearts.

Lineart is pretty straightforward, I tend to use sketch brushes/pencil brushes for it if I'm doing a more comic style.

From there is coloring and shading. I'll color lineart once I finish basic rendering so I can have a layout for future renders.

As for resources, I suggest studying artbooks and anatomy books! I've always learned better from doing rather than watching.

I'll attach a link to my personal favorite website to study posing and anatomy ^^

As for rendering, I advise not staying on one spot in your color wheel. Shading in green? Use blues and yellows (and some oranges if you're feeling spicy). Shading in blue? Purple, orange, yellow, and red will be your number one besties. Don't be afraid to be weird with color.

These are my personal favorite brushes. I use Clipstudio Paint for drawing and these are all free.
