Time to Help decide the next tutorial!!  🌸

  • Sketching like a Sculptor in this tutorial, I'll take you through my process of digital sketching.  The way I sketch is very loose and involves both building up the sketch as well as carving away from the sketch to find the drawing underneath.  It is a bit of an odd way to work, but I find it so relaxing and it helps keep my sketches flowing.
  • Lighting Sources In this tutorial, we'll go through how to think about and setup different light sources in a scene and how to keep that lighting scheme consistent throughout the piece.
  • Choosing Colors and Color Harmony  This is all about color schemes, color harmony, and how I choose and even adjust colors throughout the process to make an appealing color pallet through the piece.
  • Build up a drawing from simple to complex:  We'll start with a simple drawing and then go through the process of expanding on that drawing to build it up into a more complex piece.
  • Lineart Tutorial (new and updated!} It has been a few years since the last lineart tutorial, so it is time for an update.  This new lineart tutorial will go over my process for lineart, and important principles to keep in mind.  We'll also go over some tips and "finishing moves" that you can do to make your lineart look like a stand alone piece.  No coloring required!
  • Rendering (How I approach and simplify it as someone who doesn't love rendering!}  Rendering isn't my favorite, so I try and make a rendering process that is efficient and minimal work for me.  In this tutorial, we'll go over that process and my tips for making your rendering look more natural, and less plasticky or blurry.
  • Painting Metals (silver, gold, bronze, brushed, rust, etc.)  In this tutorial, I'll show you how I go about painting metallic textures for things like accessories and armor in a simplified but effective way.  (we did have a mini metal tutorial in both the dresses and armor tutorials, but this tutorial will be more in depth)
  • Painting and rendering Armor: We have designed and drawn armor, now let's get into how to color and paint armor.  I'll bring you through the process of painting and rendering armor.
  • Drawing Animals (dog, cat, bunny, etc.)  Let's draw some animals! I'm no animal expert, but that's okay, because I'll show you how I use reference and approach drawing animals even if I have never drawn a particular animal before!  
  • Male Body types This tutorial will be about how to draw various male body types!  (similar to our female body types tutorial!)  We'll cover proportions and forms to create different body shapes.
  • Hairstyles for guys Let's draw some hairstyles for guys, mainly focusing on short hairstyles.

Thank you for all of your suggestions!  You guys came up with so many good tutorial topics for this vote!

To add on the rendering choice, what colours to use as shading is something I'm really looking for. Example: when the base colour is yellow, what colours are used for shading? Browns, reds, oranges? I've done so much research and there is so much variation, it's rather overwhelming.

So many great tutorial topics! 😍 Im glad you gave us the multiple choices option hahah. Its not on the list but I would love a tutorial for frames in the background (like this one you have here) or different ways to make the background simple but more interesting

I’m so happy to see sketching like a sculptor getting so many votes. I think it could be so informative. 🤍

I just thought about this. But maybe a tutorial on your clip art studio workspace custom set up would be fun too.

This is a great idea. I’ve been thinking we need a tutorial that really introduces csp and the features and workspace that I use for painting
