    This channel is an absolute goldmine for the caracter/creature artist. I LOVE IT . I am really speechless about the quality of this content. Do you might have a Discord Community? I would love to join.

      Hey thanks great Harry, thanks for the kind words! I do have a Patreon, where I provide some monthly art feedback, and it does have a Discord attached to it. It's been a bit quieter recently as I've been working on a long contract job, but I'm about to release a whole bunch of new RUclips content and intend for my Patreon to kick back into motion now too!

    hey dude, how would you convert these exercises to traditional drawing?

    • @JonahLobeDraws
      @JonahLobeDraws  3 года назад +1

      Great question, Liam. Two of the three of these are very translatable: the silhouette one and the face one (in fact I do them traditionally all the time). I recommend using a thick black pen (preferably a brush pen, because that's super pleasant, but it can be any kind of pen or marker) for the silhouette one, and you can use any medium at all for the faces exercise. Pencil could be excellent to give you that nice shading, otherwise you can pick up like 2-3 gray markers to do shading on them (like Copics or something!). I wouldn't use any more than 3 markers for shading, however, as you always want to keep things as simple as you can for yourself!

      Not at all - you can use common materials like pens and paper. I love pens and paper. But if you're doing digital painting, the brush type doesn't matter, whatever makes you happy and allows you to be flexible.
