    Maybe a tutorial on how to draw black, shiny clothes like Cat Woman's costume? Always tricky to know how much should be black and how much should be reflecting light

      Latex?

    • @luck0717
      @luck0717 4 года назад +60

      I am not a professional, but those costumes are thin and plastic. So when you draw them, make them look stiff with thicker wrinkle sections fitted to the body. Think about where your lightsource is, and look at the clothing like planes. Once you figure out which planes are facing the light, light em up! Then you can throw an airbrush of reflected light on both the lit side and the unlit side (reflected light) and erase where needed.

      yes latex

    • @RandomThings12
      @RandomThings12 4 года назад +13

      whenever i draw latex, i just draw a few white lines on some of edges to simulate rim lighting, and scribble some random shapes on a few areas to represent the reflection of the environment, while bending some of them accordingly to imply the shape of either the cloth or what is underneath it (depending on how skin tight that thing is).
      honestly just look at references from other artists or illustrators. references help so much when you have no idea of what you're doing, and when you use them enough times for your stuff, it simply becomes muscle memory, and you can then draw it from scratch again and again with no worries. latex can be both fun and a little frustrating to draw at times lol

    this stuff has seriously changed my entire life. ive tried to draw this style of art since my earliest days just out of pure inspiration, love of art and drawing 100% and thats never changed. Im 39 and I still love it and draw regularly but could never produce any art worth keeping. I just have like two decades of me experimenting and drawing pages of different body parts or even pipe drawing since I was young. i tried reading like mcfarlane magazine articles in was it Wizard? I dont remember but what im saying is after watching these videos its changed my ability to produce this type of art man!! It has really made my art richer, just better. Things have plagued me for years are fun to draw now. I enjoy drawing hands and feet and its made everything just look better! thank you for taking the time to sit and teach this stuff the humble and ingeniously inciteful and patient way you do is an absolutely wonderful thing !!! I just wanna say thwnk you really man. It has really made me enjoy what i love in a new and better way all over again. btw peace sells is one of the best metal albums ever made. total agreement

This was really informative. I wish RUclips allowed us to post photos, I would post a couple of my drawings to show what I am talking about.
