- Hello Everybody you can call me Gerik Johansen. For the longest time I've wanted to learn how to draw but I kept putting it off for years, now I'm taking the time to learn.
This is day 152 which I streamed over on Twitch @GerikJohansen

hi, Gerik. can i give you a little advice? i drew spoink alongside you and noticed some things when i looked back at the video. primarily the speed difference. i recommend starting with the pencil tool or a tool with a rougher, more transparent texture that allows you to "sculpt" as you draw. starting very light and layering strokes so that the darkest average of the lines is generally the most accurate. also hand dexterity helps: i recommend practicing drawing controlled curved lines and smaller circles. don't use Undo so much and don't stroke too slowly with the rough sketch. keep it loose and keep comparing it to the reference. the reason you should be (counterintuitively) drawing faster and looser is that it doesn't allow you to become myopic and get tunnel vision. the longer you look away from your reference the more quickly you forget it. you can also get more reps in that way. for practice, you should switch to paper and pencil to get used to not being able to rely on ctrl+z so much. my method for drawing it was: rough sketch (loose with light pencil tool) -> correct errors -> color underneath sketch (with large, low opacity marker tool) -> ink with "rough pen" tool above color -> hide sketch layer -> final touches and final comparison. i'm using a tablet with clip studio paint, what hardware do you have?
thank you for the advice. i recently did ponyta and spent.... about an hour and a half on it. i agree i need to speed up a bit so ill definitely try out your suggestion next time. i also use clip studio and a drawing monitor/tablet for my computer
@@GerikJohansen awesome. i am watching day 155 right now. i will follow you on twitch. i only suggest going faster because you will get in more repetitions of the movements and not get tunnel vision. keep it up! you are doing great!
