T____T but so pweettty +____+
yes i hate anatomy DX in fact i suck at drawing hands O____O
yes your right copying from an artist is a really good thing for learning
^___^
thanks again seley chan
No prob I'm glad they helped!
Yeah, I have all 4 volumes of How to Draw Anime and Game Characters series made
by one of the artists of Ah My Goddess and Nausica. But to be honest, they are
helpful but not 100% helpful. Like, they give you tips and they show you how to
draw certain positions, but basically it tells you to do the same thing I just
told you. Trace pictures, when you're more confident move to copying.
But I just found art books of the How to Draw Manga Books and such at Galbadia
Hotel. Here are the links.
If the pics don't show then don't worry, I'll scan the lessons and stuff for
you.
The hands can be mastered. Try drawing a real skeleton's hand over and over
again. Remember where the joints are. Those are the places that bend like when
you make a fist and bend your fingers. And remember the shape of the bones, that
will help you focus and remember how the overall hand should look like. Then try
to draw a hand normally. You will get great results!
HAHA thanks alot seley chan omg
sorry for the late reply coz i was at camp for like three days DX not happy at
all because the stupid backstabber just got worse, the whole freaking situation
just got worse and we kept on getting punished to do push ups on grounds like
the road exept the rocks were less refined and there were huge cracks
DX NOT HAPPY! and since i had asthma they made me squad in a 90 degree agle
hands off the lap DX now both my hands and leg hurts TT____TT

OMG glad you like it nyaaa~ but i
cant do hands, eyes and side views DX you must teach
+___+
lol Okay then, I will teach! Give me a while to draw out some lessons then and
I'll upload it onto MT. Doujinshis and iny art can be downloaded free of charge
so it'll be okay! And also, I have a lot of How To Draw Manga books. I can
upload a scan for you too.
But the most important thing you have to remember is that everyone draws
differently. Even if you copy it, it will come out different so just shape it
out into a way you like and that's easiest for you. :3
I learned by collecting screenshots, scans, and manga and then copying them.
It's a good way to practice. And also tracing them.
If you keep tracing your hand will get used to the movement you need to take
when drawing certain things. So that is also a great way to practice and gain
experience.
Practice makes perfect, nyan! :3
As for hands, they are tough for everyone. Best advice is to draw anatomy.
"Human skeleton" -> "human flesh you know the tendons and
stuff" -> and finally the human entirely. That's the only way you can
really get through learning it. :0
I hope my advice so far has helped!

Quote by makiyashawow luv the effect
with the sketch ^____^ how did you do that?
i read this sketching book once but im no good at locating folds O_________O any
help with that?
well your gifted omg im
still a begginer T___________T the pain of knowing nothing DX
well hope you could help and be my sensei
+fav
I am glad you like my work and to show my thanks I will try and help you out (I
need to please the little supporters I have)
I am not good at explaining and I didn't quite understant what you ment by
"locating folds". Well, what I did to get the effect was trace the
lines over and over again with a very small ink pen (0.25 - smalles one I have
but I thin there are others even smaller). The trick is to go over them a bit
fast (not to fast, that way you might damage the paper) but not to slow for then
it might stain it - took me weeks to figure out the right sincronization ^^'
You don't have to go over the intire surface of the place you want to shade.
First start low, preferebely making a light sketch with a pecil then start with
simple lines (they don't need to be realy stright - the stile depends on the
artist), then go over and bethwee them, making the image darker and darker.
Another method is by making the distance betwene the lines smaller as it gets
darker. But that dose not men you have to bring them close. no. The first step
is by making lines that are at a certain distance one from the other (not too
big, bare that in mind) and coming up with more lines in bethwene those starting
from showhere as the midle of the first group of lines. Do the same till you are
pleased and that is that.
That is pretty much the basic when you are shading with ink, but make not that
the key to arts is observing nature. Brows for pictures ore simply take a good
strole in the park and look at the way the lingt flowes in and how the shadows
fall. that is preatty much what I do.
I don't kkno what else can be said but maby once I'll have more time I will make
a tutorial if anybody is interested and if somebody will ask me. Still, that is
a stand-by project till whinter break and I don't know if I'll heve time even
then (i am a busy-busy bee) But I will tr and explain whatever you might need to
know.
oh souka thats how thks
i
find that ur ink work is the best one out of ur cg works i dont know why but i
think u work best with ink O___________O do u learn all that? oh and by locating
fold i meant like the clothing fold bleh
hard to do it would be great for an expert to teach me
oh and btw have u ever had a time where all of ur drawings came out wrong . . .
right now i am at that low poijnt of life T______________T

i need to ask you something i dont know whether it is a bug error or something

and i dont know why but i also cant edit the group page O.O so since ur a mod i
hope that u can help me
hope you have a nice day ^^
Hi makiyasha!
Sorry for the delayed reply.
I think it might be a bug- because usually you should be able to do that as an
administrator. I think possibly the system had a glitch and recognised you as a
group moderator instead- I'm not too sure.
I'll try to "add" you as administrator to those 2 groups again and
have a try and see if you can access the group threads and the editting pages.
Hopefully it should work *_*
See you!
haha sry for the late reply misa san ^_______^ last tearm everyone busy about
reports and homework blah
anyways thks for helping ^____________^ appreciate it ^^
hmm i tried making a new thread misa san but all it says is missing gid file

make an anouncement saying that i need a new mod coz i really need to study for
