dumb reference blog

"Critical thought can lead one to accept the unlikely, just as much as dismiss the impossible."

Reference/Inspiration blog.
I like stuff. And sometimes I like things. That's what I'll post here.

Trakoclock asked:

Hey, if you don’t mind sharing, I’ve always wondered how you got that soft celling look on your characters in your comic. Any tips? I’m currently working on my own comic and I kind of want to go for a less harsh form of cell shading. Thanks!

A couple people have asked about the way I color things and I’ve been meaning to post a tutorial on it :]. I’ve never been too good at describing my process, but I hope this helps!

The book does have a basic breakdown of the hands, but I felt that references like these were much more needed.

Tutorial: How to Draw Kisses by Aqua-Bluebell
I suggest looking for a proper “how to draw profiles” tutorial alongside this, I use a book, but I’ll try searching for one later. (Also, stock photos are your friend!)
