Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and I am very glad to see you here!
A few weeks ago we did an anatomical study with one of
those little models, a 3D sculpture and that has all the muscles
and tendons in it.
Today we will use a similar figure but of a woman.
This is also produced by the British company 3D Total.
And this time we will use it but not for an anatomical study
but rather for a very artistic drawing!
We begin by sketching the head with a cross as reference,
then a mood line for the pose and I mark the shoulders and
hips tilted, to give some movement to the pose and so that it doesn´t
look stiff in any way.
The mood line that I mentioned is the essence of the pose,
or you could call it a line of action if the figure were in motion.
We erase the lines that we don´t need any more.
And we begin sketching the first fish.
This will be a surrealistic drawing, as you can see.
It will has some fish flying around her.
And she will be in the water up to the hips.
Here we will have another flying fish… and over here another one.
Well, in reality these are not a flying fish as a type,
they are in the air but I´m basing them more on a beta fish.
The 3D model I have of the woman, helps me a lot representing a correct
structure, anatomically.
We switch leads to a softer one, (I love my pencil), and with this
we begin shading.
The british company 3D Total was very kind to send me this model,
but even more to offer one for you.
We will raffle one of these sculptures among this channel´s followers.
The winner of the raffle will be able to choose between the fully anatomical
model with all the muscles or the one that is half and half, or the one that
is all covered with skin.
What you have to do to participate, is share this video on Fine Art-Tips
Facebook page. The Facebook page is spelled "Fine Art-Tips". Participation
is open from now to this Friday the 18th.
The winner will be announced this Saturday 19th on Facebook.
3D Total will ship the sculpture from England all the way to
the winners home.
We draw the scales to the fish and shade the fins.
Of course they should have parts that are more light
and parts that are in shadow to achieve the effect that they
are waving.
We do the eye, and then continue with other fins. Even some of
the flippers maybe in front of some other ones. And to indicate
this we should also do them with different tonalities. Lighter
and darker. And also talking about the flippers, we should´t do
them too rigid, what I mean is with a solid line that
outlines them, drawing them like that would look too stiff.
That is why I try to make them a little bit blurry.
To give them movement and life.
What I mean is that in some areas specially at the edges,
they vanish gradiently rather than with an outline.
Now we draw the sea and make some waves and reflections on it.
Good!
The horizon line will be at about this height.
Below this point will be all water.
There are many ways in which we can draw a surface of a lake
or a sea, and this depends on a great degree on how agitated
the water is. In this case it will be pretty calm.
Now we make her hair which will be lifted up.
For this we use the softer lead in the mechanical pencil.
We do the last details and it´s ready!
