So I haven't shown you one of these in a while, this is the December ArtSnacks
box and inside we have: the four pack of Pitt Artist's Pens - there's a brush,
soft brush, soft calligraphy, and a bullet nib - the sticker this month looks like an ugly
sweater - the candy is a stick of peppermint - ohohohohoho the 'Big Boi' - this is the
Krink K-75 paint marker- this is the General's draughting pencil and lastly
The Tombow Fudenosuke Colors Brush Pen - alright let's draw something with them!
♪
So first I'm just going
to swatch these out quickly before I use them, so that I get a good grasp of how they
all work - oh, this one has a little chisel to it, so this must be the soft caligraphy
if you rotate it you can get a smaller
point, Cool!
ooh! squishy.
♪
I think we have my favorite! - I like that they're all juicy
none of them seem very dry which is what I like in a liner
what's the draughting pencil? oh! it's pronounced /draft/ing - drafting
spelled real fancy or.... wrong *hehe*
♪
my opinion on these sort of pencils is we're living
in 2018 can I get an eraser on every pencil now I mean that's just how I feel, I mean
understand everyone has their favorite eraser like kneaded eraser
*kissy sounds*
but it's just
so convenient when you can just flip an erase a little bit I usually use like a
kneaded eraser when I need to erase the larger areas - omg don't ask me to pronounce
that
this one does get a little dried out- that's a little unfortunate and finally the big daddy!!!
that is freaking awesome I love this - oh - oh - there's the stink 'woooh!'
that has got a smell to it okay - let's see if we can get any line variation
*sniff sniff
okay wooh, I think I need to open a window or something! - now that I've tested all these
supplies I know exactly what they look like and how they work and the exact
colors that are inside of them especially when it comes to colored stuff and now I
can use this as inspiration to create our illustration over here - did that dry already?
oh wow that dries fast! - it's a paint
marker but that dried really fast I'm impressed I think I know what I want to
do - I'm just gonna thumbnail something first I'm thinking what I want to do is
use a lot of this Krink and it has a very wide nib, so we need to think of an
idea that's going to have a large area that can be filled in with that Krink
marker since we have all these different sized black pens I want to have like a
line art heavy drawing and then one element of the drawing will be colored
in with the Krink and then the lineart of that will be done
with the Tombow pen - that's what I'm thinking - wow did I draw the head too
small for the first time in my life!? well that's a major achievement I mean still
not what we're going for but at least it's not too big oh there's no eraser
included I guess I gotta use my own actually, you know what would be cool is if I color in the
whole background with the Krink, have you ever seen one of those drawings, I don't know if
there's a name for it but like a part of the like character that's in the
forefront is colored with the same colors as the background but then like you
can see the hands that like overlap that shirt like the shirt was the color of
the background you don't see any of the lines that like would block out the
shirt so they're colored the exact same as the background you only see the
elements that aren't the same colors the background does that make sense?
if not I'll show you cuz I think that's what I want to do yeah why don't I try
this- if it doesn't work we've got lots of pages left here I think I'm gonna change
it up a smidge though and I gotta remember to keep all of the elements of
this drawing pretty large because the thinnest pen we have is this one five
and it's got a bit of a width to it so I want to try and keep the drawing pretty
large - I'm just gonna layout where all the elements are
♪
some big swishy hair cuz why not? - add some detail to this face
get an idea of what they look like - some lips - you know I still smell that Krink...
marker "WOOH!" that has a stink to it it's been like ten minutes since I
used it, let's add some 'ear wisps' I don't know what you call those little pieces of hair
before that ear - I like the term 'ear wisps' sounds gross but they're so cute
♪
I'm focusing a lot on the neckline because my hope for this drawings that the
background will be the same color as her shirt so the more detail that goes into
like the neckline and the more skin that like pops through in different places
then the more I'll get to draw so I'm hoping for something cool - is that
interesting? I'd say we'll come back to it but every time I say 'Oh we'll come
back to that' I never do
♪
wow, today's just a day of firsts isn't it? what if her belt is shaped like a heart?
awwww
[wait for it....]
that scared the absolute jeebies out of me -whoa
let's draw this hand I feel like it's a little too spread out it
looks like she's showing off a ring maybe she is maybe she's engaged is that
the right hand? left hand sounds like a fun story element right?
I've got an idea here what if there's like a neckline with a bunch of just criss-crosses
like this - is that different enough? I think I've seen something like this on
Pinterest probably hmmm no idea is an original idea - what I want to do is go ahead
and color in the background - man... her neck is really long isn't it?
I'm gonna pull some hair in front of that in hide how freakishly long her
neck is - let's see what that looks like -
♪
let's make this a heart shape too - there's a
bit of a theme going
on alright so now that the sketch is done I might tweak
some things I want to go in and color in the background with the Krink and make
sure that everything is the way I want it because although I won't be able to
erase any Krink I will be able to add more and that's kind of what I'm
thinking I might want to cut this hair a little closer so that this color of the
background will touch with the shirt but we'll find out so I start at the top
left and move my way to the bottom right so that hopefully don't put my wrist in
this let's see how this goes
♪
and this is a paint marker so hopefully there won't be too many streaks I'll
be able to get a pretty good even coat - that's a beautiful color , I am in love as long as
I plug my nose - the sacrifices we make right when we're in love? - I''ll be careful here around this edge
♪ [marker squeaks]
looks like as it
dries it gets a little lighter and that's where the streaks are and it's
cuz it's not all completely dry yet so I'm thinking once it's all dry it'll be
a more even color - at least...I'm hoping
love it!
i love it!
it's pretty opaque it covers over the
pencil a bit not completely but good enough *shake marker bead* the parts I'm not sure about I'm leaving
white because you can always add Krink on top but I'm pretty sure this doesn't
erase (that's my guess at least. I mean I haven't tried to) oops, I just put my hand in it
oops
ahhhh!I colored the whole thing that I said
looks really cool right now I haven't even like done any of the details stuff so I
think I'll just let that dry - oh wait! I missed a spot - I'm gonna go get some ventilation
and let this dry this is our stinky boy I might even have to do another coat if
it looks this scratchy and streaky after it dries and it's mostly dry already
yeah and this side is dry maybe I'll go ahead and start doing this
next coat - how are we doing with bleeding? -not too bad like it hasn't gotten
down to this page it looks like there are some sections where I got close this
is the illo sketchbook if you're wondering - I'm gonna add a second
coat though and get this a little bit more even - honestly I don't know why I
think I can always get away with one coat of paint when I'm drawing because
like you're painting a wall or furniture it never takes just one coat you're
leaning upwards of like two and three four five coats - I like that sound
*marker ball shaking sound*
there we go second coat down does that look better - oo its shiny, look! definitely
need to let this dry and then come back to it and 'phew!' maybe go outside and 'sniff' breathe
'yegh'
alright everything's dry I'm now going in with the brush pen because it has the
finest point
♪
Oh No I had some of the graphite on my
wrists and it's leaving marks I guess I'm gonna have to go over that with
another layer of Krink - I didn't think of that
oh
♪
no I'm not entirely sure how to go about the shirt because I think this shirt is
- cuz I'm going to color in the shirt with the same color as the background and I'm not
sure how I want to go about the lineart of that I'm just avoiding it at this
- for now - can do the hands though
♪
I usually use nibs that don't bend so it's a little crazy for me - and stressfull hehe
but I really like the way it looks - hhh, that got a little squiggly 'whoopsie'
now this heart here I'm gonna use let me see what was the other one? the bullet
is this small enough to do this with? okay that's not so bad, then I can get a
much more solid line too
and just add some seams
and this is the skirt I saw on Pinterest and it had this weird little heart
hanging off of it so I'm gonna include that - it's on the end of a chain
I'm trying to be very light with
these lines - skirts done - okay, I think the only thing left is the shirt so a little
nervous about this I think what I can do right now is erase most of the pencil
grab my kneaded eraser and hopefully the pen doesn't smudge oops
don't get it on the Krink - okay - ooh! i forgot a thing: a little belly button
'bloop!' it's actually turning out pretty cool like I kinda like it - all
right now I'm gonna lightly erase the shirt so that I can still see most of it
and then I'm gonna go in with the Krink for the shirt and hopefully this will
look cool I don't really know what's going to happen - I need to go over where I got
graphite all over it
ahhhhh ----- what was I thinking
♪
okay okay not too bad
*pen squeaks*
hey its not looking to bad at all - the hardest part is getting really close to
the lineart without drawing over top of it and this markers kind of opaque so you
can't really see it underneath it would have been smarter I think to have just
colored this in the same time I did the background and then do the liner on top
of it - you live and you learn - and I can always go over the sections that I
accidentally go over with the marker with the pen again so i think everything is
working pretty well so far I wonder if Krink makes a white one of these now
that would be amazing! - is that sleeve longer than that sleeve? ....... kind of
i should
make her lips yellow - don't you think? maybe the belt oh the belt, yeah!!
I'm doing it, I'm doing it
spur of the moment thing
it seams to smudge the ink of bit- instead of just going over
the top of it which is kind of gross
let's try to go over this graphite again over here it's a bit messy now
it's the waiting game again I got away for this all to dry so I can finish up
and add the final details to make this look really cool actually I think it
looks really cool right now actually pretty happy with this trying to get the
lips just the very tip of this chisel - I wonder if I could do some eye makeup too, just
a slight smidge of it
it's pretty bright and happy I think - I really like this color it's just putting
me in a good mood - I still see some of that graphite though and it's gross when
it bleeds through this it makes almost like a green color and it doesn't make
me very happy like the yellow does, this would be so cool if I had like a bunch
of these markers and I did a different one of these things with like
that same sort of idea but in a different color that'd be so fun but for
now I need to let this dry why do I keep touching it now the only art supplies
that I haven't used is this Tombow pen right here and originally my idea was as
I demonstrated down here I was going to outline the clothes with the orange pen
but I'm not feeling that I think I will go in and add all like the detailed line
like that and like the seam that I had drawn here - I don't think I want to
outline the whole thing - I could draw like this line here like that could even draw
some like wrinkles - wrinkled lines - I kind of wish I had left this white and I
could have drawn the choker with this orange but too late for that what I do
want to do is add some kind of element of interest up here since there's a lot
of white space and I feel like it could add to the piece so I think since I've
kind of got a little bit of a heart theme going on here I'll just draw some
little hearts not super crazy but I feel like it'll add a little something you know?
ehh, I probably shoulda put this one here... eh it works actually
now what I want to do is just color those in - except this pen doesn't really
want to draw on the Krink - all right I think I will outline it
is there any way to fix this I could go over it with my Posca pen - i mean it's less
noticeable I guess I'll see yellow buuut its better, better -
trying to add a little bit
more depth to the line-art but it's just a little too squishy for me and it's I
don't have a whole lot of control now that that Posca pen is dry you can see
that really well again I'll go over that with another caot - let that dry and see
what happens little extra something you know, it was worth a
shot - now I just need to sign this - boom baby
so there it is there's all the little
drawings and doodles I made with the December ArtSnacks box I'm actually
really happy with this and I like the shine and if you see it like it didn't
even really bleed through I mean it bled enough it's gonna interfere with
whatever I draw on here but it's really not bad at all for this solid bit
of color like look at that I am impressed I really like this thing the
Krink paint marker, look at this puppy it's so shiny can you see the Krink?
giant yellow marker and this is what I drew with it I really like the contrast
between the black and the white and then with the pop of yellow and then the
orange goes really well with it too so it doesn't look too bad yeah I'm
happy look at it like look at it! I had a lot of fun and I'm definitely going to
use this in the future just maybe with a nose plug it's very very Stinky this was
sent to me for free to test out and share with you but if you're interested
in getting your own ArtSnacks box I'll have a link in the description you can
check that out and see if that's something that'll work for you anyway I
want to thank you guys for watching I hope you enjoyed watching me create this
illustration I had a lot of fun and I hope you all have a delicious evening
full of WAFFLES!!!
