so you can let me know if you have this
problem but every time I go to the store
and I see the sharpies I just want to
buy them and then I remember that I
already owned them and you know they're
also in a very neatly organized and
aesthetic packaging you know though I
can just use mine this is my old
collection of sharpies that I've had
since I was 12 I thought it'd be cool to
get some use out of them but I see
there's a lot of things in here that
aren't Sharpie so I should probably
clean know about so there's all my junk
I knew I had something else look how
well I took care of these things
compared to diesel these were all mighty
liners anyway I need to test these out
and see which ones actually work before
I decide where I'm gonna draw you know
figure out a way to lay this out all
right you can use this side of this
pitchbook starting with the pink bunny
all the Pink's work I don't think I have
really used the Pink's much that makes a
lot of sense actually Reds now we might
be having a problem oh yeah look at that
no this red one's no good either God of
all my sharpies these are all the ones
that don't work but I'm pretty sure I
was throwing them away as they didn't
work before look you'll notice I don't
have a single black now I just need to
go quickly and try out these and see if
those ones work and then we should be
good to go so after testing them all
this is what's left of my sharpie
collection of these three ultra fine
we're dead
those are the colors and that's what
they look like caps right so this is
what we've got to work with let's draw
so I think I'll do is concept an idea on
this page and then use the markers on
this page that way I'm not bleeding
through onto like any other sketches I'm
just gonna grab a basic mechanical
pencil and start sketching feel free to
sketch along with me it could be drawing
buddy I have a lot of rainbow colors I
could always draw something that's a
rainbow but look I've done that recently
so I'm not feeling super inspired by
that idea they're all fairies you draw
like a couple fairies and then we could
use a lot of colors if they each have
like their own color scheme there's a
Tinkerbell knockoff
I don't really have any skin tones let
me see
I have this and this it might be fun to
go a little crazy with our colors which
I think would make like fairies or
something magical work really well maybe
instead of like that normal kind of like
random fairy like our Tinkerbell
knockoff over there what if instead
maybe we update it make it a little bit
more modern looking maybe give her a
leather jacket I still need to
incorporate wings somehow let me try
something else here I do want to go with
the fairy idea but I think we're gonna
thank the outfits kind of interesting
and yet simple at the same time to kind
of fit with our sharpies we're not going
to get like shading and stuff I want to
keep it simple that way it's like not
trying to be anything that it can't be
you know well maybe like a fluffy boa it
could be fun
yeah still not feeling that I'm gonna
keep playing around with some ideas here
I come up with something I'm liking I'll
start talking again use that fun layout
for them it's kind of Powerpuff Girls
inspired no three girls will each have
like their own color scheme so maybe one
will go from like pinks to red longer
the orange to yellow and the other one
can be like green to blue and then it'll
look kind of like a rainbow of going
from left to right or from right to left
depending I mean it's a rainbow it
doesn't have to go in a certain
direction just need to figure out what
each of them is going to wear but draw a
little tiny versions of them try and get
the color scheme down this is the one
that's going to be right here kind of
pictured having longer hair so maybe
like super almost Rapunzel hair kind of
like that boa idea and then a dress
maybe a sleeveless dress blue maybe one
that goes all the way down to the ankle
look like a little Whoville flip at the
beginning race that real quick okay now
we can add some simple colors if it's
the one on the left it's gonna be the
pink version so let's start with this
light tone here alright that's what
we've got there
oh great
next I think I want to use what do I
want here it could be a good idea to use
our darkest tone maybe for the dress
leave a shine what if I can use this
purple for shading right and then maybe
we can use this tone here
I wish sharpies had a name on them for
it all over that with this now I didn't
end up using this third color here which
I think it's this super bright pink you
know doesn't look super bright that's
right right yeah could actually layer
sharpies just a smidge and get slightly
different tones I think that works I
really want to keep it simple so I don't
want to overthink anything when it comes
with sharpies I guess I just need to do
that two more times kind of figure out
the outfits for these other two
characters go give her round her wings
had some difference to these things
right
that's some contrast right add some
simple lines to this one and then bright
yellow for the outfit might work on the
outfit a bit more when we get to the
bigger version all right now we just
need one more character you would look
cool with like tattoos or if it could
pull something off like that oh I didn't
have any shading can I use the purple
for shading this guy - yeah probably
wings maybe some kind of boots
there you go there's my last one I just
need to add the colors try this no this
I think would be a fun hair color since
I did leave some stuff white on her
maybe I shoulda left something white on
her cuz if she feels a little bit more
heavy with the colors I'm gonna play
around with that later but for now I
want for sketching out the drawing back
down and I'm gonna be using this sort of
as my reference I might change up the
poses a little since the outfits changed
a little and so I suppose it's probably
won't work but for the most part that's
my guide get our main girl here in the
middle those basic shapes out it's gonna
pull one shoulder up a little for some
sass and then over here well the head
maybe belt this area and then the other
one's head would be like here I want to
make sure I have the layout down before
I start adding too many details what if
instead of just the bow of the hair is
the bow that's kind of interesting now
we're here we have our green girl kind
of running out of space for her but
hopefully I can make her fit I'm getting
some serious manga and girl vibes over
here
start adding in some details hopefully
she'll fit I kind of messed up around
this area kind of wish she was off a
little more to the right but we might be
able to make this work because of there
is space here if I need to squish her
over to left guess these girls need
names don't they sometimes literally
magnin girl's face you can't staring at
me I think she's mad at me because I
haven't drawn her in a while or if I'd
drawn her higher I could have had them
linking arms that would make you owe
regrets yeah work on the pink girl now
give her a face
yeah thanks I'm gonna have to just
redraw this girl the green one she's
looking too much like someone else and I
need to move her anyway so two birds
with one stone
this all can be erased because we've got
someone's hip in the way you have a
shrink this for a little bit more she's
even more in the background I build to
draw more of her design - so that's
never been thing and it gives them each
like their own place you know cuz like
this one's the foreground so you kind of
see it first and then you see that one
cuz it's the next largest and then you
look at that one yeah kind of I like it
before they were all kind of like
competing you know for your like center
attention because their heads were all
so close together I think this does work
better I kind of went away from my
keeping it simple but done we'll see how
this turns out it's gonna look real real
weird we'll see
so it comes to line art I used dark
green to do like this around her face
and her hair and then I'm just using the
black for everywhere else I'm getting a
little nervous about how that's gonna
turn out as they are sharpies and I
didn't really stick to my simple idea
that I wanted it looked good in the
simple so you'll see anything could
happen right I'll probably the wings in
the dark green as well like didn't draw
that right dang it followed the wrong
lines oh I'm gonna color in your skin
right now see how we're working just to
make sure I'm heading in the right
direction you know cuz if this looks bad
I kind of want to start over right now
I've already put a lot of time into this
that's not bad at all
okay alright that's making me feel a lot
better actually I think I do want to
just finish coloring this guy though
that way I'll know if I want to maybe
use more of the liners for going around
the colors since that looks really cool
and I already color this in mostly with
black liner guess I'll have to cover
that wing later though that's um
magic sparkles that keep her afloat in
the air would you use nowhere to float I
guess in flight would be the proper word
to use these this one at some almost
blush kind of colors right in this color
is her hair now you do have to be
careful cuz if you go over the black
lines too much they do start just smudge
so you want to just kind of try and
stick in the white space as much as
possible here and like fill in the
sections like that instead of what I
would normally do is just go over all
the lines like that but I'm kind of
trying to stick inside of the shapes
alright and then it's super dark olive
green kind of trying to leave some
spaces for light so it looks a little
bit more of like a leather texture I've
seen like you know comic book artists do
it and although this looks cool but I'm
sure it takes a lot of practice and
studying to get right and maybe looking
at some references could probably
actually even color that in with hair
color and then it won't be so crazy
bright happy and I can be pretty crazy
with it cuz I'm not too worried if it
bleeds in with that color you know it's
kind of actually what would I would
prefer I believe I was leaving the shirt
wait so that's just about it for her but
I will probably come in with shading
once I'm done with all the rest all
right let's work on that's funny I'm
kind of doing going backwards order this
time let's work on her next add in the
line art I want to use the black for the
eyes because I like those to be really
out there you know and kind of an
eye-catcher kind of do the same thing
and use like a lighter color to outline
the skin in the hair and then probably
just use black for everything else yeah
I totally messed up that hand it's okay
it's fine things happen it's just one of
the only hands in this whole drawing so
everyone's gonna notice it
we go and I can erase some of that see
what we're working with right actually I
think these wings are gonna be
see-through so just draw that in there
right there
I guess this line to put that in real
quick finish off some of these line and
then he can color her here we go
just erase erase all right and I just
need to color it I'm going to use which
ones which here first orange was the
skin oh that was a large area and it's
given off a stink faces are always the
scariest part to do cuz I'm so afraid of
ruining it now the red that are used for
the details on the face isn't quite
showing through so I think I'm just
gonna go in with the black make it more
obvious just be like important lines
everywhere else I feel like it's fine it
was just the face needs a little extra
help this I believe I used to forward
the hair and the wings sounds drying out
a bit so spend more streaks in this one
don't forget the magic sparkles another
thing you can do to kind of use the
streaks streaks and your own advantage
is to kind of like you draw in and color
in like the way the either the fabric or
the hairs would be doing so like this
you can kind of do a curly texture and
then if there are streaks that show up
they'll kind of add to the picture
instead of take away from it alright
that's it for this color next up we have
this weird pinky orange which we used
for the tights for the socks I guess I
forgot how much I enjoy using sharpies
this is bringing it back I think all I
need now is yellow yellow mine color in
the outfit
with yellow you really want to avoid
touching the black because it just grabs
in smudges it everywhere this one sets
us right in the foreground I really want
to just start shading it let's go in and
do that with our purple move the ears
the nose eyes the eyes I'm gonna shade
in some of this hair just give it some
texture we can do her too while we're at
it basically I'm just adding it to the
right of the image like the light
sources over here and then anywhere that
I think would be getting less light than
other areas all right moving on to the
last guy here this looks cool I like
this little twirl this hand was
confusing I didn't quite see it till now
yes next I just need to erase the pencil
so I need to do the whole thing in a
pink color and then if I need to add the
black liner anywhere I can do that too
I think that seems like a better idea
because like here I really wish I had a
nice black or the yellow is so this will
allow me to figure out where I need it
and leave it where I need it and put the
black or napped if that makes sense okay
again I used this pink
I don't know I always color the skin
first we'll have to do a check on the
other side of paper and see how much it
bled through I'm actually layering these
more than I did with like the swatches
so that'll be interesting to see this is
a really pretty color I didn't really
think about it it's like a gorgeous pink
kind of let me use this color for the
hair to try to leave some spots here for
highlights you can use this for blush
teeth I honestly forgot how much you can
kind of layer ethan markers thinking
we're gonna leave the little white spots
I kind of like them alright now the
dress looks like I used to up this color
yeah I'd say so this is the dress just
basically the same color I used to do
the line art so we might have to go in
here with black depending on whether or
not I like it the way it is like guess
oh oh wings wings
oh and shading and the shading looks
really good with this because of that
pink color you know who honestly I
really like that look without lines that
this dress has your arse gonna do this
again I might just skip the lines
altogether alright I like to do is color
in the wings try a textured look
oh of course we need the floaty magics I
just like putting dots on the paper I'm
gonna be honest let me know if you've
been drawing with sharpies lately or
recently I forgot how much fun it is to
draw with sharpies you can get some
really cool stuff I think personally the
pink one turned out the best I think
it's just the
turn of colors and I'm really in love
with that line list look and I kind of
wish I could have done that done more of
that but I didn't really figure that out
until you know the very end but that's
the kind of cool thing about drawing is
you learn stuff along the way oh I'm
free to forgot to look at the back so
that's how the yellow sketchbook handles
sharpies if you're wondering I say
that's pretty good there's nothing yeah
there's nothing here
I thought I saw something it wasn't
actually Sharpie it was some kind of
spec so yeah pretty nifty wanna see it
closer that's what we came up with today
anyway I want to thank you guys for
watching and I hope you all have a
delicious evening full of booze buddy
