    Hi everyone! Here's my drawing of Crystals in a fantasy art style! This is such a fun drawing to work on and I highly recommend giving it a try. There are lots of options in terms of shapes you can create and the colour choices you could make, and that's why I think it's an enjoyable type of drawing to work on. I really hope this video helps. Be sure to let me know what you think - and also please let me know any suggestions you have for future videos.
    Thank you so much for the continued amazing support! It means a lot. I hope you're all having a lovely day. :)
    -Chris

      LethalChris Drawing Looks absolutely amazing but as a person who has just stepped into the realm of drawing beyond stick figures. I found it rather hard to comprehend.

  • @AnastasiaR
    @AnastasiaR 6 лет назад +47

    This is so helpful! I’ve been really into crystals lately (like everyone! Haha). I do RUclips videos but I haven’t done any actual tutorials until now (working on an eye drawing tutorial) and I’m studying all your videos because your teaching style is so effective.

    • @LethalChris1
      @LethalChris1  6 лет назад +4

      Thank you so much! I really hope this video is helpful! It's awesome to hear that you're working on art videos too and I'm wishing you lots of support with it. :) Hope you're having a lovely day.

    • @AnastasiaR

      LethalChris Drawing Thanks so much, Chris. You are always so kind. Yeah the art videos have been going better than I ever thought they would. Ive been doing it about 6 months. The art community on RUclips is very positive. :)

  • @wolfferoni
    @wolfferoni 6 лет назад +1

    I always watch these videos twice. Once to just watch it for fun and absorb things, then again but also trying it out and following along. Not many artists draw crystals; I guess it is kind of a niche thing in comparison to people or animals or whatever. I remember doodling jewels on my workbooks when I was a kid so this just brought back memories.

  • @shaipatz

    I was actually about to do a fantasy portrait sketch, can't wait to incorporate some crystals! It seems quite fun to draw :)

    • @LethalChris1

  • @oopsmypencilslipped
    @oopsmypencilslipped 6 лет назад +5

    I love these types of tutorials. I dedicated one sketchbook where I just practice from RUclips videos. I also write down the youtuber channel name from who I learned from. This way I get to improve my skills but also reduces the time of me deciding on what to draw. Thank you so much.

    • @LethalChris1
      @LethalChris1  6 лет назад +1

  • @fyrenoftelios767
    @fyrenoftelios767 6 лет назад

    Interesting colour choices...
    For some reason your drawings always look a bit awkward at the beginning, but always turn out to be amazing...
    I find it amusing in a certain sense, but also great to see how the drawing turns out. There is always an element of surprise when you first watch the video...
    By the way, I really like the dragon fantasy art and the Overwatch fanart (I'd suggest maybe Reinhardt or Bastion). More of it would be absolutely great!

    Hey Chris, I enjoy, (now use), a lot of the techniques you use. But I never seem to get shading right. I understand where the highlights are needs to be consistent, but I never get it right. Any tips or pointers would be awesome. Alsdo for the next fantasy art, a galaxy dragon would be really cool to see.

    @mallels4679 6 лет назад

    Nice, when you are doing a time laps you could (if you want) have it in real time for like 4-10 seconds and then do timelaps again, it's easier to follow your proces and see how you do the linework and coloring ;D, it would also be cool if you time it to the music!

      LethalChris Drawing
      There's nothing to thank me for, you did/do the great work :D
      Btw, here are some suggestions that I think would be really interesting to watch and hopefully fun to produce as well:
      A draw my life would be nice to watch to get to know you and your art better. Since most of your fanbase have watched you for a while (as far as I know), I feel like a video in which you explain how youtube made its way into your life etc would make really well.
      Also, every time I watch a video of yours, I realize how soothing your voice is. Maybe you could consider reading short stories out to use instead of the music in your videos. Not that I dislike the music, it's just a suggestion.
      Have a great day :)
