Hi everyone, it’s Ravee.
Today, we’re gonna do the sketchbook tour-reshoot.
In one of my videos, I said that I wanna reshoot the sketchbook tour again
because the old footage is not clear. And it’s really an eyesore to watch.
So, I’m gonna film it again for you guys!
And if you have already seen the last video, you can still watch this one again since it helps increase the view count (laugh).
Could you watch this one again please~ Pretend that you haven’t seen my last video before ok?
Ok. I wanna see comments like ‘OH MY GOD this sketchbook tour is FABULOUS, never seen anything like this before’. Ok?
Ok, Let’s start.
This sketchbook is from Illo sketchbook.
When we open the sketchbook, there will be a place for us to write our information and contact.
In case it’s lost, anyone who picks it up and wants to return it to us can do so since they know our contact from here.
But I didn’t write anything because I have never taken it outside my home.
For the first page, I normally left it blank because I don’t want the cover paper to be stained.
In the real first page, in fact, it’s not the first page I drew in this sketchbook.
The page I drew first is this one.
Last time, I talked about when we have a new sketchbook, we’ll normally feel nervous and do not dare to draw on the first page, right?
Because we feel pressured that we’re obliged to do it well or whatever.
So, I told you guys that just skip the first page and draw on the second, third, fourth, or whatever you’re fine with.
Therefore, I skipped the first page and drew on this page instead.
And this is the actual first picture I drew in this sketchbook.
While this one might be almost the last one I drew.
These women are from pictures on Pinterest.
Pass through the first two pages.
On this page, I said in my last video that we can find our drawing inspiration around us.
And at that time, I grew a tulip, so I drew it and designed a character based on it. Yup.
Next page, this is Lifeline fanart from a game called Apex.
I also drew her as Mickey mouse because her buns remind me of Mickey mouse’s ears, and it’s cute.
Next one is a fanart of Yeji from Itzy.
I drew most pictures with a pink lead pencil and a red pen.
For colors, I mostly used watercolors.
Paper in this sketchbook is able to hold watercolors to a certain level, but it doesn’t mean it’s suitable for watercolor practice.
Because I feel that if you wanna practice a technique like wet on wet, it may not work well.
Likewise, other techniques that need to layer watercolors several times are also not so suitable as well.
I think the paper works well with just skin or base colors coloring, something like that should be enough.
Moving on. Here on this page,
I’m gonna bring back the old footage from my last video to show you the reason why I wanna reshoot this!
In pictures with lots of details, it can obviously be seen that the old footage is utterly unclear, right?
I want you all to see details within my pictures, so that’s the main reason why I want to film it again.
This picture is in the picnic theme which was inspired by my birthday party in one year when I chose to go on a picnic for celebration.
In the next page, you can see that I glue new paper on it.
Behind this is the page where I tested gouache paints, and I failed.
I’m not satisfied with it so I glued new paper and drew my study on choreography of Itzy’s song.
I intentionally leave this page open for you all.
I wanna demonstrate to you that if there is a page that you don’t like, you can just put on new paper and draw on it instead.
Yeah, just like that.
Moving on, this one is Overwatch under Songkran festival theme, and there is also a video when I drew this too.
This one is my drawing practice with a black pen.
This one is a woman drawing practice with a red pen and a black pen, coloring with watercolors.
Next, this page is kinda like a journal. Back then, I watched Avengers: Endgame,
so I put the ticket here and wrote about my feelings after watching it.
Oh and I forgot to tell you that I have started using this sketchbook maybe since 2019 and finished around 2020,
or the beginning of 2021, around that time.
This page is my idea sketching with a black pen, nothing much to see.
This is when I did the 100 hands drawing challenge in which I drew 50 hands here and another 50 on my Ipad.
I used a black pen for drawing and watercolors for painting.
Ok. The next page was drawn with a black pen and colored with watercolors a bit.
For this page, I also drew with a black pen. Well, this is probably the drawing practice from references in Pinterest.
This page indicates that I started to get into colored pencils.
I began to apply colored pencils in my drawings.
This is the colored pencils swatch, and a very first drawing that I sketched with a colored pencil.
The colored pencils that I used are from Prismacolor.
And I also discovered that using colored pencils together with watercolors turned out to be soooo good. So soft and pretty.
After this, you’ll see that I used colored pencils a lot.
This is my idea to make products about my cat, which is unsuccessful. So, it was left to be just an idea here.
I don’t know what happened here too but I just felt like I wanted to use watercolors,
and had no idea what to draw. Consequently, I drew these random things for the whole two pages.
For this page, I also filmed it while drawing too.
This is a hydrangea and a hydrangea fairy, and I tried to keep the same theme as the page with a tulip.
Like, a flower on one side and a character design from the flower on the other side.
On this page, I drew under the autumn theme, and it’s also one of the pages I really like.
I used colored pencils, a red pen, and watercolors to create this painting.
I really like this page, and actually, another person can be fitted here, but I was afraid of ruining the page.
So, I just left it like this.
Here, I still continued practicing the colored pencils and watercolors combination. I was a bit obsessed back then.
This sketch is from colored pencils.
At first, I planned to color as well, but I was lazy. That’s why I didn't do so.
However, I did do it on this page! It’s also a combination of colored pencils and watercolors.
Not sure if you guys can recognize it or not, but this is a pancake.
This one should be a waffle, but if you can’t see it that way it’s fine.
Because the circle at the back is supposed to be painted like a waffle,
but I was scared of ruining the picture so I just left it like this. And this one is whipped cream.
The next page was drawn during my Inktober preparation period.
Which, spoiler alert, became an unsuccessful project.
I did it until day 19 or 16 perhaps.
Anyway, on this page, I prepared and drew the ideas I intended to draw,
and tested equipment that I intended to use for Inktober in that year.
This page is another page where I jotted down ideas about Inktober for that year.
And this is the beginning of my 2019 Inktober project.
I’m gonna flip through them so you can see what I have drawn.
At that time, I drew under the theme of witches and confectioneries.
As I said that I haven’t completed this project, I felt sorry too, but I was super tired back then.
And when I knew I couldn’t complete the project, I kinda felt bad for myself too.
Like, oh no, it didn’t succeed ;-; , something like that.
My two favourite pictures in this project are these two:
an earl grey lavender tea witch and a pumpkin spice latte witch.
Technically, they are beverages. But they also contain a bunch of sugar too!
So, technically, they can be counted as dessert I guess (laugh).
What logic. Anyway, yeah.
For this series, I also filmed them too; you can watch the playlist in my channel.
This page is a colored pencil sketch, and this one is from the watercolor course I additionally took while I went back to Thailand.
And yes, there is also the watercolor course review video! (laugh) Can’t stop promoting your own videos huh Ravee?
Anyway, if you’re interested, you can take a look.
This one, I think I probably used a koi brush pen to draw.
This one was drawn with all the pink colors I have.
This one is also a sketch with a koi brush pen too, but in purple color.
On this page, I came back to my old love, colored pencils and watercolors: my beloved combination.
This picture is unfinished because I was lazy.
This one is anatomy practice I guess, with colored pencils and a black pen.
This one was also drawn with a koi brush.
I think I practiced drawing either anatomy or gestures back then.
This one was drawn during the period when I didn’t have a chance to draw in the sketchbook for a long time.
Because I felt like people prefer to see me drawing on my Ipad.
That’s why there was a time when I didn’t touch my sketchbook at all.
And this page was like when I returned to the sketchbook once again.
The sketch was made with a red pen.
This page is where I planned my green emoji challenge.
If you haven’t seen it, don’t forget to watch it~
There will be an upcoming purple emoji challenge too; please keep following for the video~
I think this is the first and only page I drew men (laugh).
So, during that time, I realized that it was near the end of the sketchbook.
Therefore, in that period, I had a mini project while I was doing the live stream.
I ordinarily live stream every Saturday, so I did the sketchbook drawing live stream to fill it up.
This is my POV while I was drawing in the sketchbook.
The cat also came and laid on my lap, so I got to draw it. So cute~
I guess I tried to use copics on this page.
Like, drawing on another paper and putting it in this sketchbook.
For this page, the reference is from Pinterest.
It has a van life vibe, and I also noted down the color combination and its how to.
This page is also one of my favourite pages too.
Next one is… Oh wow, super duper colorful.
I drew this during my live stream too using watercolors, pens and colored pencils. Various combinations indeed.
And here is the last page~
Mainly, I used colored pencils and watercolors, with an additional experiment of koi brush pens over here.
The thing is, I think that the color combination is just right! It looks extremely pretty indeed.
To tell the truth, among the pictures in this page, I like this one the most.
It’s very adorable and I really love the color combination; the red outline and the encompassing cool color tone can accentuate the swans, or geese?, even more.
Ok, that’s all for my sketchbook tour.
If you like any specific page, please share your comment down below.
For those who have already watched the old sketchbook tour and also watched this version too, thank you a bunch!
Thanks for increasing my view count (laugh).
Anyway, see you in the next video.
Bye bye~
