Here is the brush I used for sketching/lining x) it's Photoshop brushes but you can import them in ClipStudio as well :) www.deviantart.com/loish/art/the-loish-brushset-477640124
These give me so much inspiration to do digital art again. I've been down on myself since I can't figure out an artstyle that suits me. So these tips and advices surely touched me and I will be taking them to heart💖 Thank you
I would like to say, having a concrete art style is not necessary and honestly I find it quite restrictive. IMO, I think it's better to develop your "quirks"" in your art rather than a definite style. Example, Laovaan is exploring different styles here yet you can still tell it's his art. Laovaan has his own quirks that makes his work recognizable as his. These quirks will form over time as you gain more experience, they likely won't result in a finite decision. The main thing is, let yourself explore. Art is a creative outlet and you shouldn't limit yourself in any way. I understand wanting to develop a style unique to you, but if it's getting you down than personally I wouldn't think it's something you should worry about. Sometimes it's nice to find a piece of artwork and think "I want to draw something like that" and go draw it, locking yourself into a style would make that quite restrictive.
With time you will notice and or learn that no artist has just a single art style (unless they really try or don't seek influence.) like the person that commented weeks ago said "every artist has their quirks that makes their art recognizable" to roughly quote them Now when it comes to art style there isn't just one especially when it comes to manga and anime (not always obviously, but usually. Comedy Manga and Anime for example) The normal "main" style and then something like Chibi or a more cutesy style are often switched back and worth in manga and anime depending on the situation and the general the story. So really...you could draw in 3 different styles and they could either all be your main or maybe you have 2 main ones and a more "doodle" kind of style or maybe you only have 1 main one and a doodle style and so on etc etc I kinda just have a main style and a sort of chibi one I doodle in and draw lil comics with TRADITIONALLY When it comes to digital art I usually have a more semi-realism style coloring and rendering wise (Sort of like Arcane I suppose but more smooth looking) And I def know the struggle of not being happy with your own art and comparing yourself to others and thinking "I wanna draw like that..." I've been there...and I still come back to that place every so often. So when you feel like "this looks nothing like I had in my mind" just... doodle in a random different style and maybe you'll develop that one further to make your characters say stuff about your other drawings...it's fun!
Style is not something you decide to have, is something you build over the course of your art career, it can take decades to build one. You can decide a Style Direction (anime style, comic style, Disney stile, etc), but your own personal style... that will take some time to be fully fleshed out. I have been drawing for almost 2 decades and I still don't have one.
My problem is that, although I do have an art style, and technically know what goes into developing one and know how to apply those techniques if I wanted to change, whenever I try to move on and try something else, or even allow myself to just experiment for fun and learn, I feel like I'm abandoning part of my established identity, which sounds really stupid, but. Somehow I became so attached to the art style I have now, it's difficult to try out new things even if I'm sick of the way I draw things and feel like it partially holds me back from improving.
I found out that I don't have to abandon my style though, I just needed to work on more realism first then once I improved, I could go back if I still liked my style. Also if you take a break from your style you won't forget how to do that style AT ALL. Chances are you will just gain a better understanding of how to improve it to your liking or speed up the process after practice.
I've said this in a different comment but: You can have more than just 1 style! If you feel like trying something else like idk...rubberhose cartoon style instead of realism, anime or any other mixture of styles you can. You're not abandoning anything at all. You don't have to replace anything from your "main style" maybe the new style you tried out has some things you'd really love in your main style and so you can just put that in. I do that all the time when I get sick of the way something looks in my art. Today I looked up art tutorials just to see how other people draw eyes and hands. I've been drawing for 14-ish years now so I do know how to draw most things at least human wise I've been looking up tutorials today (and got hooked on this guy because my art style has a few similar things going on plus he's also German like me lol and I just think that's neat) I decided to change up the way I structure the sketch for hands. Simply because I was unhappy with how inconsistent my hands always turned out after I've had some bad art block haunting my ass. Plus the knuckles were always really sharp (the knuckle on the thumb especially) and I started to hate that "quirk" of mine...so I just changed it Anyway, sorry for the rambling 😅
@@Peayou... yeah that's true, it just gives me a sense of anxiety and wrongness when I do something else and it isn't to my liking lol. After I sort of deliberately took direction and formed my main art style a few years ago by doing master studies, it started changing and evolving on its own over time, and that's not really something I had control over either, but it was such a slow and gradual change it was hardly noticeable unless I looked back at my old work. rationally it's all about leaving comfort zone and not getting too attached, but sometimes it's easier said than done 🤧
@@FandomTOBY yes, you're right and I know all of it, but the lizard part of my brain can't help feeling the way it does lol. having multiple art styles is definitely advantageous since different subjects and different projects might require a different approach, if not for the artistic value itself, then out of pragmatism. that's something I'm trying to work on, cause getting out of your comfort zone is painful, but the way it's limiting you is overall way worse in the end. on top of everything, simple art styles are cute and practical from the standpoint of storyboarding and animating, but truth be told, I do find joy in rendering and making things more complex too. for me it's all about finding my sense of identity and familiarity in each variant of my style, and until figuring it out, it's just bound to feel off and awkward at times. but recently I worked out how I like to paint and choose better colours and although it's different, I grew comfortable with it, so all the pain was worth it! also, since you mentioned you're German, let me just tell you I absolutely love German romanticism lol
Now this is what you call "draw in different styles"... It's tiring seeing videos of people just tracing another style and change something like the eye color and hair and call it a day. This is super refreshing, interesting and helpful in every way. Thank you so much!
Tokyo Revengers was definitely my favorite! I really enjoy that style and it was enjoyable to listen to you deconstruct it a bit. i really appreciate your expertise!
I really like how good the concept d looked in the video It seems like a good tool As for the artist I wanna learn ein lee's artstyle Her shading is really amazing
This was so inspiring, thankyou Laovaan! I've been stuck for a while on finding an art style, and this is such a great idea to explore and experiment with
It would be cool to see your OC in the Persona 5 Mementos mission manga art style. Rokuro Saito (the mangaka)’s art style is really interesting to look at. I do love how he draw the eyes, it’s very detailed and expressive
Something one of my art teachers told me in my fundamentals of design class is that it's a good thing to now have an art style. This makes you much more flexible, allowing you to get basics down. And as someone who wants to find their own style for so long made me rethink everything
This was really helpful because I sometimes struggle with what to focus on when doing art studies. I have an art style already, but I don't really like it that much anymore. I understand anatomy and fundamentals at least, but muscle memory is really strong within me and whenever I try to change the way I draw to a way I might like more, I always end up doing it the way I'm comfortable with.
from doing this i have 2 different styles i love to draw in, both with different techniques, one is very heavily inspired by hirohiko araki and the other is inspired by extremely stylized early 2000s shojo "kawaii" styles
These tutorials are so helpful, thank you for all the effort you put into making them! I'm in love with the lineart brush used in the Tokyo Revengers style, if anyone knows what brush that is I would be very grateful to know
My art style is like manga but to progress I learn realistic the proportion and the method after it make me progress in my style bcs I learn more method that I can use to make it look better
it is very interesting that due to the construction of the head, as well as light and shadow, the drawing changes dramatically. And also thank you for taking your time when you speak, for me, as a person who does not speak English fully, this is a huge plus
How could someone pick for a very favourite ?🥺 They're all beautiful 😍 but if I had to choose, I'd like to say Genshin a tiny bit more... (PS : nah, actually I'd choose your own art style- you're one of my main references while drawing...please continue ❤️🥰)
Vielen, vielen Dank für dieses Tutorial. Ich hab schon einige Haartutorials durch, aber bei deinem versteht sogar ein Dummi, wie ich, was man beachten muss. Mach weiter so
Oh my goodness thank you so much, I've been wanting to change my art style recently and finally got the courage to do it, and I came here for reference. This couldn't have come at a better time, thank you so much
The first one in the tumbnail was rlly good the second one was good in the detailing and shadows the 3rd was good in the hair detailing This is just my opinion, great vid :)
I always find myself creating the same style every time I drew something. It just look so similar to my previous works. So this video is really helpful for me :)
Cool video, think your right about your style and the Genshin matches your style more with arcane, but I really liked the Tokyo Revengers one out of the three 😂
Man I want to do digital art again but every time I color and shade it turns me down, I need to figure out how to get better so I don’t just mess it up, amazing work dude!
This is awesome to know how to practice using different styles. I guess it will also help me find out my own style. I do a lot of art but I just don’t know what my style is. I would say based on this though it is also in between the genshin impact style and Arcane style
Wow, your drawing is very beautiful. I really like drawing characters, but I lack the experience of drawing. I loved your channel in which everything is beautiful. I know from your drawing. I hope one day I will reach your expertise and mastery of drawing. Thank you for explaining 🥰❤️🙏🏻
This was absolutely incredible!!! I learned so much! Id love to see you take a look at the Danganronpa art style some day, I think you’d really like analyzing it

Wait have they finally added a liquefy tool in csp? Or is it user made?

hello sorry, may i ask the brush you used for the lining in tokyo revengers style? i can't differentiate the ones in the link ^^" thank you.
Can u plz make a tutorial of male hair
So far all of these tips are helpful to me since I just started to do art
Aren't you still watching the intro considering it's only been published? :D

I hope you have a great art journey!
love your yohan pfp haha
and I hope that you have fun creating art ^^
I like the tokyo revengers style the most, your character looks like he'd fit right in with the style you drew him in.
I love this man's tips , he speaks in a way which makes it simple and easy to understand
These give me so much inspiration to do digital art again. I've been down on myself since I can't figure out an artstyle that suits me.

The Tokyo Revenger Style looked great! I mean all looked great but the last one really loooks like Tokyo Revengers
Watching Laovaan's art videos always gives me motivation and inspiration to draw! Thank you for the content always, Laovaan! ❤️
