https://imgur.com/OJX7EXA https://imgur.com/TwBGMMx I've been drawing since I was little toddler. I do commissions since 2004, I have a page but I cant link it here. For advice, I say ditch the pencil and go digital. Get a tablet and a drawing program. ALWAYS use layering! Dont draw straight on a white background if you can help it. Make a new layer and fill it with a soft muted color. (BLUE/GREY/BROWN etc) Then make another new layer and start a base sketch. When you go into the next phase (inks/color/background) It will be MUCH easier to deal with. It kinda branches out from there if you want with sub-folders of layers once you get the hang of it. PICTURE/CHAR/HEAD/BODY/CLOTHES/ etc. Then you're going to find out if you need to buy a new computer...

  • Yo dude? Legit can you send me your page in a DM? Also, I didnt expect anyone to say to go straight to digital. I've mostly been drawing on a tablet and rarely on paper, and I figured that digital might not be a good start for me. Do you think there's a big difference or is it something that you just have to get used to?

  • Huge difference, but in a good way. You can manipulate the picture more through digital. Like different clothing, hairstyles or expressions. Or using the horizontal flip trick. When you "fix" mistakes, its alot more forgiving. Also, digital can be shared more and is future friendly. Paper is good and all, but it isolates itself to a certain niche of people.
