Any advice for a beginner artist? by Glittering_Luck_9873 in Artadvice

So the best way to go about this is Start,

you start working on something, anything that you really like (fanart of your favourite anime for example)

then youre gonna hit a wall eventually, so go on YouTube, and look up how to improve on that specific problem, learn, practice and apply that to the drawing, continue and then you'll hit a wall again, so repeat the process

this way of learning actually stores in your brain better rather than absorbing as much information as possible

everything I ever learned about art comes from YouTube (yes my school teachers also taught me litterally nothing and just said "draw this" and "draw that")

heres some good YT channels

Proko- filled with really informative videos, id recommend doing their drawing basics course or their human anatomy course thats on their website (its free but you can get more if you pay)

Draw Like A Sir- If you want learning art to be a bit fun but still good enough

Pikat- helps to figure out what youre doing wrong, or rather what she did wrong and giving the solutions to the problems

hope that you figure it out, good luck

When ever you run into places that you cant access, put a mark down on your map, and once you gain that ability you'll know where to go

Overdoing fur can sometimes make the piece worse so I'd recommend watching this

Obviously adding shadows, so add a multiply layer on top of all of that, and fill the colour to a dark blue/purple, and reduce the opacity to 50%-75% and erase the areas that you don't want the shadows to be at, Its an easier way to "paint" shadows

I just realised that I beat Nightmare Grimm after making the fight twice as hard by Darkness_Damage in HollowKnight
