Hello and welcome to another tu tu Tuesday!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today I´ll give you some tips,
that I am so sure they are going to be helpful that I guarantee if at the end
of this video you don´t draw better, just let me know and I´ll give you,
your money back in full.
Oh, you didn´t pay for it, did you? [laughs].
Doesn´t matter, it will still help you.
This tutorial is going to be about the line, how to do it cleaner and richer.
I will draw a very simply fine figure. First do it in the way that most of us
will tempt to do it.
What I mean is that we will be very careful, a bit uncertain and we will
have back on forth movements.
I do this myself all the time and consciously, try to get out of it.
I´ll speed up at the shot a little bit.
Ok, we are back to real time speed, and this is what I call chicken steps drawing.
Ok, very well!
Next, we are going to see a cleaner line.
But before we do that, I want to tell you something…
The line as you know, maybe light and thin…
or thin but darker… or dark and white,
among many others, and you can use these to
enrich your drawing.
Let´s say that the light source is on the top left.
Then the lights that face this, will be lighter, and the opposite
ones will be darker.
This time i´ll try to make my line cleaner.
For this I practice the movements a few times without touching
the paper and then I draw it.
I mark where the shoulder should be, and then I get there with a continues line.
I am been very soft since this part of the body is the one getting
the most light.
For the next one, I mark my target, then I practice two or three times.
And then… foooom and I go over it as need it.
This part is a little darker as it doesn't get as much light.
I practice the next curve, and do it.
And continue like this.
I practice this back part of the face, and do it.
I mark where the shoulder will go,
and get there with a single line.
I visualize the back, practice and draw it.
I continue… fooom, foom trying not to make chicken steps.
The center line of her back will be almost invisible.
This part of the face will be darker, as it will be in shadow.
As well as this side of the back and of the arm.
Specially the lines that are facing down.
When one surfaces touches another one, is produced
what in drawing is called an accent. Accents are
going to be the darker and wider lines. These ones is also going
to be dark as it is facing down and therefore in shadow. I´ll go over a few others.
I almost forgot the dress.
Ok, it´s ready!
Here we can see the difference between a chicken steps drawing
and one that looks much more decided, clean, professional,
and that shows the volume, even if it´s just a line!
