Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today we will draw a Queen and a baby, digitally.
I created a screen size document and turned on the guide,
then I make a circle for the head, in profile
with a cross as guidelines, a line for the face and the jaw.
This is a simplified version of the Loomis method.
I make a new layer for the sketch,
in case you want to watch my video on that, I leave it here on the screen.
I'm drawing on an iPad using the program Procreate, but you can follow along practically with any digital program.
Let's draw the hair and now we can erase the guidelines
and we draw the baby,
this is going to be an artwork for my upcoming graphic novel.
If you want to be one of the first ones to have news on that,
please follow me on Instagram and Twitter @artistleonardo
We create a new layer to start adding color
but we keep the layer with the linework on top, so that we can always see it.
After adding pretty much a flat layer of color, we can begin shading, pretty much in a monochromatic way
that is with only one color,
then we will be adding more.
We add shades and we add lights,
it doesn't necessarily need to be in this order.
I'm considering that the light is coming from above and slightly from the right
and we add a little bit of a red hue.
We paint the hair pretty much in the same manner,
first a flat layer
and then we add to it.
Definitely don't try to draw every hair!
We do the overall masses and volumes and at the end we can suggest some,
some individual strands.
Let's do the robe or towel now.
Good!
We can refine the profile and give it more light, while we are at it.
By the way, I am publishing a long version of this tutorial
on my Patreon account, I leave you the link in the information below the video.
Let's draw some jewelry for her,
an earring first
with a red ruby.
Cool!
and the shadow of it.
We add some reflections to it, to make it shine
and what about a golden necklace?
I'll do some more shade and some more light to the hair of the baby
and we give more detail to hers,
which I want to make darker,
we do that with adjustments and brightness.
I will also extend the canvas a little bit.
Good!
then we draw a little crown.
And you know what? I'll make this a little bit thinner so it looks finer
and so that the crown looks lighter, we take some off it.
Let's draw a background, like some curtains, some blue curtains.
And down here, something resembling a wall and a table
or a surface like that.
Also to have the right setting, I think we should draw some elegant ornaments.
A nice golden decoration piece.
Let's do some holes and some reflections.
And on the other side two golden birds.
It is important to draw reflections,
darker and lighter.
And if you got all the way to this point, I would love to know it!

"The Queen's choice"
