    I hope you enjoyed the video! If you're an artist, feel free to practice drawing expressions and emotions yourself, if you usually don't. It's good to come out of your comfort zone every now and then when it comes to art!

      Perhaps more concentrated focus? At least, that’s what I guess happens to me when I switch from traditional to digital. 😅

      I share this problem too.
      I think its because my muscle memory is missing that feedback from traditional drawing.
      First from how I draw on paper are usually on a lower table than the one I used for digital drawing, having my elbows and shoulders freed to a relaxed position helps a lot. Second is that the softness of paper scratched pencil helps the muscles to draw details. Then texture of the paper often masks my mistakes compared to when I scan and clean said drawing on digital. Portability and environment where I carry my traditional supplies also helps me gets in the mood to draw with intense focus.
      Since the problem encompassing ergonomic and body posture, I think I need to change my table for digital drawing... but everyone is different on addressing their problems, hopefully you got yours cleared soon!

    Do you think you can do something like this but instead head/expressions, with the body/anatomy? When you showed the final practices, I saw your anatomy is very sweet and I would like to see you sketching x3 you're really good at that!!! XOXO

    2:58 that's a problem I see with many manhwa artists where they draw the face and they're like "Oh I'm just gonna add some oval shape, it's gonna fit somehow" and it looks weird, like it's forced.

      Hey 56! I'm unfortunately not sure what you mean, which character is supposed to not have an expression?
      if it's easier for you you can try saying it in russian instead.
