About This Class

Nature is full of shapes, rhythm, and visual personality—if you know how to observe it.

This class teaches you how to approach natural elements as expressive, character-driven forms through a simple, structured, and principle-based method. Instead of depending on complex tools or software, the focus is on understanding form, simplification, and visual storytelling using clear, intentional lines. Character design principles are woven throughout, helping you give personality to every element.

You will learn to see nature not as static objects, but as living forms that can be stylized, exaggerated, and designed with distinct character. The class starts with simple elements like leaves and rocks, showing how to break them down into readable shapes and redesign them with clarity and character-driven details.

As the class progresses, you will explore more complex natural forms, including trees, learning how to simplify their structure while maintaining balance, believability, and a sense of life. Each lesson builds on the last, guiding you toward a consistent and repeatable character design process.

In the final section of the class, you will apply all the techniques you’ve learned to advanced designs. You will create a forest cabin and then a small island with a boat, exploring how multiple natural elements can work together in a cohesive, character-focused scene. These projects strengthen your understanding of composition, visual hierarchy, and harmony in nature-based character designs.

The class is taught using traditional drawing methods, keeping the focus on design fundamentals, clear decision-making, and visual clarity. This approach equips you with skills that can be applied across any style or medium, including digital workflows.

This class is not about copying finished examples. It is about learning to think like a designer.

By the end of the class, you will have a practical method for designing natural elements as characters, giving you the confidence to create new designs independently. Whether your goal is stylized environments, character-driven worlds, or stronger drawing fundamentals, this class provides a solid foundation.

What will students learn in your class?

  • Designing Natural Elements as Characters
  • Simplifying Nature into Clear, Readable Shapes
  • Building Character Personality from Form
  • Creating Stylized Trees, Rocks, and Landscapes
  • Developing a Repeatable Nature-Based Design Process

Hello, I'm Amelie.

I started drawing with a pencil when I was sixteen, initially focusing on pencil drawing classes. During these early years, I developed a strong foundation in portrait drawing, figure drawing, and facial features design. I also honed my skills in working with colored pencils, ink pens, and watercolors. These diverse experiences have given me a comprehensive understanding of various techniques and styles.

As my interest grew, I discovered a passion for character design and animation, which led me to pursue professional character design classes. My university education in the field of animation further deepened my expertise. At the age of twenty-four, I began teaching character drawing with a pencil, combining my knowledge of traditional drawing techniques... See full profile

Transcripts

1. Introduction: Nature is full of shapes, stories and characters. You just need to know how to see them. In this course, you learn how to design natural elements as characters in a simple, clear and principled way. From the smallest details to larger environments, this course shows you how to turn nature into expressive character driven designs without complexity and without overthinking. You start with the basics, learning how to design leaves and rocks as character like forms with personality and structure. Then you'll move on to more complex elements like trees, understanding how to simplify their shapes while keeping them believable and alive. Step by step, everything is broken down into clear repeatable methods. By the end of the course, you'll bring everything together by designing two more advanced scenes. A forest cabin and a small island with a boat, learning how multiple natural elements work together in a single design. Just like the process, the tools stay simple. All you need is a mechanical pencil, an eraser, and a paper. This course doesn't just teach you specific examples. It gives you a way of thinking. So after finishing it, you won't be limited to what you were shown. You'll be able to design any natural element you imagine confidently and on your own. If you want to turn nature into characters using simple lines and strong fundamentals, this course is your next step. 2. First Leaf Design: Hello to all of my dearest friends and welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions here. And in this session, obviously, we're going to create a leaf together, and we want to see how that can be created. All right. So first of all, I'd be starting with a general direction line for my leaf so that I would know in which direction I want to start my work and in what angle it would be. So I'm creating this action or direction line here and we'll see what comes next. Now, after that, for my leaf, I'd be determining several general directions as well. So I can create as many lines as I want next to the line. And next to these lines, I'm going to actually determine the volume of my leaf. This would be my starting point and right from here in the middle, I be completing my leaves just like that. Moving on to the next one. Here we go. And one by one, I'd be completing each one of these leaves. This would be the last one. Now I want to consider several small lines and some detail lines for each one of them. But before that, I'm going to erase the extra lines in them so that I can have a more specific placement for my detail lines. Okay. So I just keep this part that my lines would actually meet each other, and then I'll erase the rest. Here we go. I just keep this main line. And this is a line that we are going to add details on. Here we go. And then I'd be attaching these lines together in one point, so all of these lines would meet each other at one single point. Then after that, I'd be applying several more smaller lines in two directions, but in different placements, they should be completely random. Because if they're too organized, this wouldn't look natural at all. So just try to do them randomly. And just put them wherever you feel like it. Okay. Now, for the stem, I'm going to drag out another line right next to my primary line, and I create a little, very little tiny oval at the end of it. And then I want my work to look better, I can even damage some part of the leaf. So it's been eaten by insects or something or it's been burnt and so on. Plus, this is also optional. You can skip this or you can do it more. That depends on how you want your leaf to look like. We just do it like that, and then we will erase these parts. So parts that have been eaten would be showing themselves completely. See, we're done here. This is a beautiful leaf that we've created here. As you can see, it even looks natural. You know, for these detailed lines that have kind of branched out, we can even add more smaller lines and more detailed lines, not all of them, some of them randomly. And again, I say, all of these are optional. You can do them or skip them. That's totally your choice. Here we go. As I said, it's better to just choose them randomly and not do it for all of them if you are doing it. Here we go. 3. Second Leaf Design: Hello to all of my dearest friends and welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Okay. In this session, we are going to create another type of leaf together, and we want to see how it can be done. Okay, I'd be using my direction line at first. This is my leafs direction line. And then after that, I would create the outer edge of my leaf just parallel to this direction line. And then I would complete this lower part even more. We can show this volume more or less as we want that totally depends on you. Okay. Now that the general shape of our leaf has been determined and cleared, I want to create several holes in my leaf. So from this upper part, I'm going to create some holes inside of my leaf, just like that. Here we go. We should determine these parts like that. I also create another one here. And then I would go on creating the same thing on the other direction of my leaf. The size of these empty spaces, again, the size of these holes totally depend on you. You can make them bigger or smaller. So that totally depends on you. Okay. Now I want to create the inner lines of my leaf and also work on the stem. So if I want to be starting with the stem, I've got some kind of hard shape here. I have a curved in part. I create my stem in that area, and then I can work on the inner lines of the leaf. I start again from the top just like that, I create these lines. Now, I could create these lines in between these holes, and I'm going to use two lines in order to show these inner lines, two lines next to each other. Okay. So I'd be just continuing this work. And in here, I'd be having my main line. I add another line to it, so it would be two lines next to each other. And now, for this side, I'm going to do the same thing. Okay. Just make sure that you create these lines, not in a specific order and not in one straight line. Just to make your work more beautiful and nicer. Okay. Here we go. In this part. I also create some more lines just like that. That's the last one. Now, I'm going to work on these parts which are supposed to be holes and some hidden parts from the sides and edges. So in order to show that perfectly, I just have to erase all these extra lines that we've got here. See? I just erase all these extra parts and extra lines I can see. And also, wherever it gets to our main line, I'm going to erase them as well. Just like that. Okay. I we're done here. Now it's time to work on the details and add some more details to the work. Obviously, we can work on some arcs and curve parts here, adding them to our leaf. But obviously, if you want to. If not, we can just leave it as we've had it before. So just over here, I'm going to create these curves and arcs in order to our leaf would be looking better, more natural, more interesting. This is another type of leaf that it looks like it's been eaten on the edges, but it hasn't. And these holes or better say these arcs on the edge of the leaf are very natural. That's just the shape of it. Okay. Also from this side, I should complete the outer edge of my leaf. Now, I would also like to go over these inner lines a bit more, too, making them a little bit more visible. So I can maybe even follow the pattern better. Okay. So I'd be making it more visible here. As you can see. I'd also consider severar curves here, maybe increasing the curves, better say. And we can even add several finishing details. Now, if I create these two holes or these little small holes in different parts of the leaf, where we can show that maybe our leaf has been a bit damaged or maybe it's the pattern on it. So it totally depends on you, the way you want your work to look. And then after that, we would erase all the extra lines at last, anything that has left behind, and we've got our work done. Here we go. So I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial as well. Learning a different kind of leaf is always exciting. Okay. That's it. So here is another different kind of leaf. 4. First Rock Design: Hello to all of my dearest friends. Welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Well, in this session together, we are going to create stones and rocks together, and we want to see how we can have just a piece of rock or a piece of stone. Okay. So first of all, I'd be starting with a general shape of my stone. So I want to create stone here, but I'm going to start from the bottom part of it. This is the bottom of a stone. Then after that, I create the rest of the stone as I want. Okay. As you know, we can create our stone as long or as short as we want. So it totally depends on us. Okay. This is the general shape of my rock. And in order for it to look better or look more interesting, I'd like to add another smaller stone in front of it and another one next to it or maybe partially behind it. Here we go. Now, I would determine a volume for my stone, as well. How can I do that? I'm going to start creating a line from the top and dragging it all the way down, making a turn in this way, I am actually creating one surface, a top surface, and a side surface for my rock. I can even consider another surface over here right below the front surface. So just as easy as that, I can add dimension to my work and my rock. I can do the same thing for the smaller stones next to Here we go. Okay. Now that I've determined these lines for my dimensions, I can also create several cuts in the stone or better say I'm also showing some cracks in my stones. Over here, I can add a part. And I can add these cracks wherever I want. Maybe this part has been chipped out completely. And it's been crushed. So it's been completely chipped and crushed. And then I'd be erasing the extra lines. I can also add some cracked or chipped parts in my smaller stones as well, just like that. You know, I can even make the lines of my stone a little bit smoother on this part. They would be more round and smooth on some parts and rigid and cracked on some others. This is the nature of stones or rocks. Now, I erase all these lines, the extra lines so I can actually show the cracks or the chipped areas. And I can get a better volume out of my stones. Here we go. Okay. Now I can also have several lines in here in order to show the volume better. Now that over here, we've already showed the cracks and the chips, the chipped parts. I want to add several patterns, several details to my rock, so I wouldn't just leave them very simple. As you can see, I'm creating them in random parts. And then I can even make some of my volumes smoother or as I said, some of my lines more rigid. I just try to vary between them, some parts smoother, some parts more rigid. That's really your choice. And so I can actually separate different parts of my rock much more visibly. I mean, if I go over these lines again, each part would shown itself better and stronger. Here we go. I complete the work just like that. In here also, I'm going to shade a little in order to show that this part has a depth and it's been chipped carved in to the rock. Again, wherever you see that you have any extra lines, you can clearly erase them. So I'm just keeping my finalized and my main lines here and erasing all the extra ones that I don't need. So Okay. Now, these are my stones and rocks here. Although you can even shade these parts a bit too. They wouldn't want to be too simple comparing to our big rock. And we also want to show the difference between the surfaces and dimensions. That would be just a good choice. In here, still, it can have more shadings. Again I say it separates the surfaces and it adds more detail to your work and more depth. Just like that. 5. Second Rock Design: Hello to all of my dearest friends, and welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Well, in this session, we are going to create several stones and rocks together, and we'd want to see how we can have different kinds of them. All right. So I'd be starting with creating general shapes of my rocks and stones. I want one smaller stone in the front and a bigger one in the back. So first, I'd be creating this bottom part, lower part. And after that, I can determine the volume of stone. So this is the general shape of it. Now, I would create a volume on the top of my stone with these lines that I'm creating right now. I bring these lines down. And now I can create the general shape of the stone or the rock behind it. So from here, I come up here I'll have a turn. Then after that, I come downward. Here we go. No, I would also like to create the inner side of my rock or my stone. Here we go. I can even create another part of the stone in here. Again, I can separate this area, the surface of my stone, and from here I come down. In these parts, I can even add several dents. Maybe it's been broken several times and I can create that for my stone as well. Then in here, I can work a little like this. Now I'm going to erase all these extra lines and continue the work. I would also erase this part that we have altered a bit. Here we go. Just like that. The part should go. And we're left with this. Now I'm going to complete it even more even making my lines more darker and prominent. In here, I can even create another curved line in order to show that this part has also been broken. And just like that, I will complete the work. And then after that, I can add some details to my work. For example, I can create some shapes like this on my stone, on my rock. Over here, as I said, it's been broken. So we can show that. And I'm also creating these circle lines to have more details on our stones just like that. This is the shape of our first stone. I'm also going to create another rock or stone for you and I want to show you how it's done. I start from this lower part. I start my work from here to sink that. Then I will create these cut parts of my stone that I want to have like this one. I also do the same thing on this other side. Okay. Several more cuts and ups and downs. Now I will determine the bigger part of my stone. You can create your stone as big or small as you like. That totally depends on you and we can actually come down from wherever we want and complete our stone. Now I can come over here and create several lines in this inner part of the stone. Like some dents that can be placed here. I can have them inside of my stone from this side, I can also create some cracks and I can also continue my work from this side as well. Okay. Now I can even continue these lines a little bit lighter so I can show that the cracks have became smaller. You can create your cracks and your dents wherever and whenever you want, there are no limits. You can do them as much as you like, or as little as you like. Create our shapes a little bit more rigid and cleaner. And here we go. These are different types of stones and also rocks. I hope you've enjoyed it and you can use it to create your own rocks. I've got two types for you here. 6. Preliminary Design of the First Tree Trunk: Hello to Allah, my dearest friends. Welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Well, in this session, we are going to create a tree trunk together, and we'll see how we can actually do it and make a beautiful tree trunk. So first of all, obviously, we should create the shape and the volume of our tree trunk very generally and simply. I'm going to start from the beginning of our work or we can start from the end of our tree trunk and create it then. First of all, I'm considering an oval here just like that. And then after that, with two straight lines, I try to move toward the opposite side of that oval so that I can get the length of the log and the trunk that I want to have. So I move toward the depth of my paper, and wherever I wanted to finish this log and trunk, I'll consider another oval shape there. Make sure that and consider that you can only see this edge. And I'm just creating this oval because I want you to get the understanding of where it should be. But after completing it, we cannot see that part. Only the edge. Okay. Plus, because I want my log or my trunk to be seen better, I also consider a branch coming out of here right over here. And then I would consider and create an oval for the tip of my branch as well. Now, for the beginning and the end of my log, I'm going to create several curved in parts. My work would be actually more complete. As you know, logs and trunks have some patterns. I can start this from wherever I want, but I'm going to start it from this inner part and the lower part. In here, I want to have a curved in part. And then later I will erase these extra parts, so don't worry about them right now. Now I'm just creating these shapes, these dent in shapes or better say curved in shapes. And I also do it on this side as well. You can create these curved parts wherever you like, or these cuts wherever you like. Doesn't matter. As you can see, I'm creating these parts and these lines in two lines next to each other, just to show that our tree has a value, it's not flat. It has a dimension. I'll do the same thing for all these parts here. For these parts that has went toward inside, we don't do this because we want to show that it has been cut toward inside and toward the opposite side of us. It's the same for this area as well. Just keep that in mind. Here we create another cut until all the way I come down to here. This is the beginning of our log and the front part of our log with all its cuts and curved in parts. Now I'm going to do the same thing for the ending part of my log and trunk. Okay. Then after that, I can even have a smaller branch on my branch like this. So this is only in order to have more details and my work. That's the only purpose here. Okay. Now I can even shape the whole body and the whole trunk of the tree a little bit. I don't want the tree trying to be too straight 'cause it's not so I'm just going to shape it a little. This part has been placed on the ground, so we can also work on it with grass or other branches. But as I said, no tree trunk is straight, so you should make these curved lines. Okay, let me just get all the extra lines erased right now, and then I can move forward with it. Okay. All the parts that we are erasing are consistent with and are including actually the inner parts of our work and the parts that we don't see. So make sure that you clear them all, and then you'd have a neater work to even add more details or do whatever you want with it or even show it. For now, I just erase these works and the lines, these extra lines and now I can step into the next phase. 7. Detailed Design of the First Tree Trunk: So I can actually work on the inner parts more. In these parts, we can consider several wedges in order to show the texture of wood better. As you know, in a hollow trunk, we can see much more details and much more wedges, patterns, and so on. This is a hollow trunk, as you can see. You can also consider several more lines every here and there. Just make sure that you create all these lines randomly. We don't want them to be too organized or too specified. It just won't look good, trust me. Now we can add to these parts as much as we want. So there it goes. Okay. Now, I'll just be creating several lines on the outside of my hollow trunk. Just creating some patterns in order to show the wood texture. Better and more. Again, I say, all of these lines should be very random and sometimes they make a shape for us like that drop shape, and sometimes they're just lines. That's how nature works. Random. But beautifully done. Okay. Yeah, this smaller branch that I've created here. O I can create several lines next to it with this and then maybe even several more lines on the branch more specifically. I can even cut some part of inside of it or the tip of it like this, just like my whole hollow trunk. I can do this. Then after that, I can work on its inner parts like this and even give them some volume as well. Now for this bottom part or the lower part, I'm going to add some more lines just to show as grass here maybe. It's like our trunk is lying on a grass field. Again, we do this randomly as well. They don't have to have a specific placement. We can even have several more dents and cuts in this part. Now, I can actually create some moss maybe on the body and on the trunk of my tree on the hollow trim. I can just consider some moss texture on the trunk. We can have it like this. Then obviously later on when I want to use the eraser, I will erase these parts Now we've got the Hala trunk done. Now I'm going to use my eraser obviously, keeping my finalized line, keeping my main lines, and erase all the extra ones. Just like that in this part, I'm going to erase these over here. H. Here we go. We've also got some moss on our trunk, so we'd be erasing the parts next to it. And here we go. That's it. We're almost done here. You can even play with the consistency of the lines. You can make them lighter. You can make them darker. You can have more of them. You can have less of them. So that's totally your choice. I think for me, that would be enough. And you can even shade these parts a little. So you can show that there has been a volume and a dimension to our trunk. Okay. 8. Preliminary Design of the Second Tree Trunk: Hello to all of my dearest friends. Welcome to another one of our tutorial episodes, and today we are going to create another tree trunk together, and we want to see how we can create a tree that has been cut down. First of all, I'd be starting with a general shape of my tree trunk. I would consider an oval shape here as the size as we want, and we can have it as long as we want as well. So we are just showing a tree trunk that has been cut off. So we come down and we closing the ending part of our stump again. So again, we create another oval. Obviously, we cannot see the whole oval, but later we will erase it. Don't worry. Now, if you want to add a branch next to it, it's a good time to do so. We would also just determine a general shape for our branch. And as you can see, my branch looks like my stump, but it's much more narrow and smaller. Now, we can even show some of my stumps roots which have gone into the ground. So wherever we want, we can create some kind of a semi oval in order to create our desired shape and desired volume. And then we would bring it back to the stump. So basically, I've got roots coming out of the stump and to the ground. We can have another shape right here opposite of our first one. And as we get closer to the tip of our root, we make our root go smaller or better say more narrow. And I would create another one of these shapes toward the back of my stump. Where it's obviously further from us and we cannot even see it completely. On this side, I can do the same thing. And I would add another part in the bank. A very small one. Now that we've got our general shapes, and we would know where everything goes, the roots, the branch, and the stump now I'm going to work some details on the edge of my stump, which has been cut off because our stump would not be very smooth on the surface. I want it to have rough edges, ups and downs, so I can show that this tree has been cut down. We can even consider several of these patterns in front of our stump. We continue all the way. We consider some parts taller, some parts shorter. And if you want to separate this volume from here, or better say we create a volume here, we should have a turn. Don't forget about that. Okay. Now, I separate the inner area, and I'm going to use several oval shapes to emphasize on the fact that this was the inside of my tree. Having several layers and patterns. As I said before, they look like the ripple effect on water. Okay, now I come back again, and I want to create several lines and again, patterns which I want to be on my stump. And then I would erase all the extra other lines. That's the time for it. Make sure you would also erase all the other lines inside of the stump. I mean, the lines like these ovals for the branch and for the bottom part of the stump that we've created only to have a more accurate shape. Make sure you erase all these inside lines and all these extra guidelines. Okay. And after that, we would move on to add the details to our work even more than this. 9. Detailed Design of the Second Tree Trunk: No. I can just use two lines for some parts of my edge of the stump so that my work would only look better. I can make these edges in two lines, giving it some width and some volume. And then I get all the way to the back. Now, for the branch part, I also consider a shape, and I get it out of its very simple shape. Just like that. I can even had another smaller branch coming out of here, like what I did on my hollow trunk. So as you can see, these are all just dependent on you because that's how much details you want to have in your work that you're creating. Okay. Also, in this inner part, I try to create some patterns, just like what I had on the surface of my sum. So again, I can show that this is an inner part of my wood. Okay. Now I can even add more details to my work. Maybe creating several more lines, emphasizing of the roots. And for these parts, I can create lines like this. And for here that my stump actually goes toward the back in here, I can create some grass so that I can show this part is more in front. And this other part, which is smaller and further from us is the back of our work behind our stump and behind the grass. I can also add several shapes like grass in front of my work as well. In these parts. And then after that, I can complete the volume of my stump even more than this. Here we go. I create the lines, and I'll do the same thing for the back parts as well. And I would go toward more in the back, and I also cover these parts with more grass. Okay, you can see our work is coming to life. Now I can even add more patterns and more details to my wit. And step by step, we would add more details to our stump or our tree trunk, which has been cut down. In these parts, I can even create several lines like this on these edges. Even I can show these parts are broken and they have rougher edges, and I would actually add to the details this way. And now that my work has became more completed, I can also show these parts more rigid and more cut and more broken. Then after that, I would erase this line and there's a specific line in the front part of my stump. I would show better. And as I said before, you can create two lines for the other parts in order to make your work looking better. Now, I can even add some mushrooms here to add more detail to my work, making it look, you know, more part of a story, giving it some character. So, for example, here I can have a mushroom, and then later I will erase the grass behind it. Don't worry. So these mushrooms are located exactly in front of our stem. And then I'm going to erase the grass behind the mushrooms because they cannot be seen. But I can create a little bit of grass in front of them. How's that? I think that works too. On these mushrooms, I also create several circles or ovals in order to show some pattern on the mushrooms head or the mushrooms cap and a bit of grass in front of the mushrooms that would make a cohesive scenery here. Now, I just want to darken the central part of my stump a bit more, just to emphasize on the natural side of my work and making it more coming to life. Showing the edges a bit more. And we've got it. And these parts that they actually reach the ground, I can even add more wrinkles or more lines to them showing as wrinkles. So this is our stump that we've created together. Now you know how to create a tree trunk in any condition that you like. 10. Preliminary Design of a Coconut Tree: Hello to all my dearest friends. We are here with another tutorial session for you. And in this session, we are going to create a tree together, and we want to see how it's done. Okay. This time, I want to create a coconut tree, a palm tree, and we want to see how it's done. So first of all, I'd be determining the placement of my tree. With creating the general shape for the tree trunk. So basically, I start with my action line from top to the bottom in this way. And then I consider a shape for my trunk. And I just continue that from the top. Okay, now that this part is determined, I can create several stones at the bottom of our tree or at the foot of the tree. I've already taught you how you can create stones and rocks, so you can put that into work in this part and create the stones that you like. Just like that, I will separate the front surface of my stone, and then I can add several more smaller stems right next to it. I can have a smaller one here on the left. Over here, I can even have one more stone, a little bit separated from the others. They don't have to stick together all of them, and maybe even one other stone behind my tree. See? Just like that. And another small one here. Now, I think it looks better. Just like that. Okay. Now I would also determine the general placement of the leaves, and then I can move on to adding more details to the leaves and to the trunk. From a central part, we start creating the leaves coming out. As you know, coconut trees have very long and extended leaves and big ones. So I should be considering a central area in the middle, and all of my leaves would come out and extend out from that part. Now, I don't want to create any details for them, simple shapes, so I can move on with it later. I also want to create the lower one like this, the lower leaf. In here, I can actually even leave a place for the coconuts showing where they would be. There we go. Okay. And we are just determining general shapes now because we got to later bring some leaves, you know, in front of them and covering them. But we also have leaves in the back. So I do create them wherever I feel like they should be. Sometimes you should just go with your instinct, like, Okay, it seems right to be placed here, then it is right. Specifically in our line of drawing, since we don't have any rigid rules, you know, it's characters, so they can come in any shape and any way that we like them to be. Okay. I want to create another leaf coming up from here and extend it out. And then I would also create the last part of the leaf in here. 11. Coconut Tree Leaf Design: Okay. Now it's time to work on all of these leaves and complete their volumes, one by one, adding details to them. I can start from the trunk or from the leaves, but I'm choosing to start from the top and from the leaves. It would be easier to work my way from the top to the down. Okay. I'm starting from this leaf which is the most in front, as you've seen, in this type of trees, we can have even some cuts in our tree leaves and there are natural cuts. Because I want to show that my leaf has a volume, I can work with two lines. Just like that, I can have the inner volume and then continued like this. Now, over here because the coconut is behind it, we can even shade this area a little so we can say, now, we have some shadow here and some shade here because there is something behind it. In here, I also complete the volume of my leaf. And then I create the central line for the leaf. Okay. Moving up to the leaf, which is right next to it, I create it up to some level and then over here, I can add a cut to the tip of the leaf. And on this side, I'm using two lines next to each other, creating a cut. And just like that, I will continue my volume In here, I create another cut. These kind of leaves are full of cuts, so don't worry about making them. Okay. Here we go. And it is what it is. And after that, I'm also adding the central line of the leaf. Then I move on to the next one, the third leaf. Well, the basics are the same. But because our leaf has turned and we cannot see that other side very well, we do not create any cuts in that side. We are going to create the cuts on the side that we can see clearly. These card can actually give your work more finance. You can make it look more attractive and they look good. Over here, the leaf has actually gone underneath our front our second leaf. That's why we cannot see that cut completely. Obviously, the central line for m the leaf as the final step for that leaf. Now I move on to the next leaf. For this one because it's very far from us, I'm just showing these cuts with several lines next to each other. We cannot show the cuts completely. That's why I just created several lines. I also create the central line and for this side of it, I can actually show the ending part of the cuts because we cannot see the beginning part of them. Okay. Now let's work on the leaves on the opposite side. The procedure is the same. I'm going to do the same thing. I'd be starting from here. And for the part, which is further, I bring it all the way down. And in here, I create the cut and in the front part, I would also add more cuts moving toward the tip. With this line, I can also show that it has a volume, it has a width. It's not flat. Okay. Now I create two lines again, to show the width and after that, I can add more cuts to it, just like that. Here we go. Another cut would be placed here. And then I attach it to the central part of the leaves. Now, I also want to bring this leaf from behind that bigger leaf. I want to bring it out from behind. Then we want to create this leaf a little bit twisted and turned as well. That's why I'm considering it like this. Okay. And I move toward the tip of the leaf for the back part, I create a shape like this. Just we want to show that this leaf has two sides, and this is the opposite side of the leaf, which is further from our site. So here we go. Basically, we're having the front and the back of our leaf at the same time. We can see them both. We show this front part with two lines and the back with only one. Okay. I also want to complete this leaf, which is the furthest from us. And again, also, it's been turned, and it's on the other side. So we can create it in two parts, one in the front, one in the back, as I said, we want to show that it has a volume toward inside. Now, I would make my coconuts more complete. I'll do the same for this coconut in the back and I just create the coconuts as much as I can see them. So I'm also creating several lines to show the fruit part of the coconut. And before I move on to the trunk of my tree, I'm going to erase all these extra lines from the top of the tree, the leaves, the coconuts, and everything I've created here. If I've got any extra lines, and then I can move forward to the trunk. Okay. In these parts, I only erase the extra lines. Just be careful that you would not erase your main line. Even if you do, obviously, you can come back and go over them once more, but it's better to be careful, right? We don't want any extra work on our hands. Just like that. Very easily. Done. Okay. Now, I would also complete the central line of this leaf which I forgot. So it's never late to check out your work. Is it? Okay, now that our leaves are completed, we can move on to our tree trunk. 12. Coconut Tree Trunk Design: Okay. I'm going to consider several volumes consecutively for my tree trunk. It means that from this top, I'll start. And I add these volumes to my tree trunk like that. Again, from here, I'll do the same thing. But so one inner part. And then, again, I come down the next volume right over here. I continue up on these volumes all the way down and I move toward the bottom of the tree. Now, in these parts that they come lower, I can even consider these shapes longer because they're getting closer to me, and in the normal tree trunk of coconut trees, they get bigger as they are coming down. Okay. I would create them a little bit longer. Just a little. And here we got it. Then after that, I would create the ending part. I can add as much detail as I like to my work. Just like that. Okay. Now here we go with the trunk. And now we can also add several lines on the trunk in order to emphasize on the texture of our tree trunk of the wooden texture of our tree trunk, actually. So I'm going to use some kind of lines like this. But as I said before, you should do these randomly as well. I mean, you should go random with all aspects of them. You shouldn't create them everywhere, not the same size and not the same length, obviously. Now, I can again, erase all the extra lines that are left, and we're done. And we've got to be beautiful coconut tree. I hope you've enjoyed it and you can use it to your own benefit. So here's our coconut tree. 13. Pine Tree Preliminary Design: Hello to all of my dearest friends and welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Okay. In this session, we are going to create a tree together, and we want to see how we can create that. Alright, I want to create an evergreen tree, and I'll be starting my work with a primary and a general shape of my tree. It means that I just consider very general shapes like even geometrical shapes for my tree. And I'll do the same thing from here. I try to continue my shape and form. And then I can actually bring down my direction line or action line through this work that I've created. Or as usual, first, I can create the direction line and then create the shape or vice versa, it doesn't matter which one would you choose. Okay. Now that we've created the general shape from these big shapes, we are going to actually get three smaller shapes. So from the top, I'm going to separate the first part that we want to have for our pine tree. I come from this side and I come down from both sides. Then after that, I consider some an oval shape for this area. Now, in the next part, I'm going to start from inside of this shape. We can actually move a little bit toward the left or right. It doesn't matter that much, really. Okay, I would also determine my second volume, my second part. And for the second part, we can actually turn our lines and have our work like this. And then we get some part of the some part of back of our pine tree a little and then leave the rest away. Okay. Now, the third volume, which is the biggest and the lowest, we make it from a little bit more on the side. Then we continue this oval shape, which I want to be the inner part of the tree. Again, we can turn it one more time, just like the upper part, take it upwards. I did the lower part, opposite of the middle part. You can do them in the same direction, but if you do opposite directions, it makes your work more interesting. Okay. I also want to determine the general shape of my tree trunk like that. And we cannot see the wooden part of the pine tree very much. That's why I've considered this area shorter. So that's why, again, I can consider several mushrooms for this bottom part of our tree. You can do this if you want. And if you don't like it, you can just skip it. So as usual, that depends on your own taste. So I'm just choosing one type of mushrooms and I created like this over here. I can then create another mushroom on the opposite side and I can create them like this. And because I want to make my work even more interesting, I can create another one behind this one. Again, I say that still depends on you. You can do it or skip it. So do as you please. We would also consider a part of our ground underneath as well to show the stand, you know, and so we erase these extra lines, and then we would be adding the details in each part of our tree. Make sure to do this before you want to add the details to different parts. And just be sure that we do not erase these edging lines here. We will erase these edge lines after we've got the complete shape of our tree because we're still going to move on these lines. So we might still need them. It's better not to erase them right now. We erase these sidelines totally because we don't need them anymore, not at all. Just like that. And now, I'd be adding the details for each part of my pine tree. 14. Pine Tree Detail Design: In this upper part as we move down toward the shape of our tree, we can add several lines like this and we would be actually attaching these parts to the edge of our tree. Over here, we can also add several lines toward the back of the tree and create several of them for the front part. And from the other part, we come down as well. In here, we would be adding these lines in these parts. And we can do the same thing for the back, make sure you don't overdo it because you cannot see the back completely. We would shade these areas so we can show it's the inner part of the tree, and that will be the shadow and the shade of the outer part on it. For this outer side, we can use shapes like this. We can even have some lines like this, so we can have a better looking work. Now I want to work on the second part. I bring the second part to the edge. And then over here, again, I'm creating several of these cuts like wrinkles very randomly. Just make sure that you do them randomly and you're not specifying any of the lines in a pattern. Okay. Now for the inner part, We can actually show them until the part that our third part has started. So I see this part only this much because the rest of it has gone in the back and is covered by this third part of our tree. Okay. We would also make sure that later we would erase all these extra lines, so don't worry. Now it's time to work on the third part or better say the last part. So just like that. Again, the front patterns and cuts should be created very randomly in different shapes, different sizes. So you can have various types of these the address would not actually look very look alike. I use the same lines on this outer part of the second part that I've already used in my first part. Some crooked or curved lines like this in order to show some texture on the surface. That's it. I can do the same thing for the third part as well, creating shapes like these and making the work even more attractive. Okay. Now we would also continue the inner part and we created Just like that. And then I would shade inside of it. Again, I say, I shade the inner part to show that it is the inner part and we have some depth here, you can say. Here we go. Now it's time to erase all the extra lines, specifically the lines which are left between the parts, and we would complete the shape of our tree even more so. So these edging lines between the parts should go away in this step as well. I would also erase this line that has been turned and twisted just like that. And now we would erase the third parts lines as well. Here we go. Now we want to work on the trunk of our tree, and we want to work on that too. So for the wooden part, we are actually using very random lines in order to show the texture of our wood. We can use several lines like this in order to make it even more interesting. So from here that it has got connected to the ground, I'm also going to add several grass shapes. And then obviously, making the mushrooms more complete. And as we've done before, and as you can see everywhere in the nature, you can apply some patterns on the mushrooms and make sure that these lines that we create on the mushrooms would not be very much alike, and they would be different. So that will be the same for the third mushroom, as well. We create volumes like that. Okay. Now even for the grass on the ground, we can determine these volumes in some parts so that at the same time, we can determine the texture of the ground that is made of grass. And also our work would have more details adding to its final more attraction. Okay. We added the final details as well here, but you can add even more details if you like, and develop your work more and more, adding more things to the background or anything else that you want. We can even go around these edging lines making them darker. So the outlet and the silhouette of our work would be seen better and more. That's what we're trying to pull here. And also the other side of the tree also is the same. So we're going to do this from one side toward the other. I like that. As I said very easily. This is our pine tree. 15. Initial Design of the Island and Boat: Hello to all of my dearest friends. Welcome here with another tutorial session for you. Okay. In today's session, we are going to create an area together. We want to create an island and maybe a boat. Okay. So as I said, first, I'm going to create a boat, and then behind it in the scenery, I want to have kind of a castle on an island shore or maybe a rock shore. So first of all, I'd be starting one of the main features of my work. So I'd be starting with the general shape of my boat. And then before I start with it, I'm going to create a framework for my whole work because I'm creating several objects and several landscapes and objects in it. I just want to consider a framework so I'd know where everything would go. Okay. I consider a shape like this, a framework like this. Not too big, not too small. And then I'd be starting with my boat or ship or whatever you want to create a raft or anything that you like. I'd be just starting with a very general shape. Like this. Here we go. Okay. I've completed my ship or boat. And now I'm going to create a general shape and placement for this landscapes island, which I also may want to include a castle on it. So I'd be just creating the island here. Now, considering the fact that the island that we are creating is further from us, we should make a smaller shapes and a smaller volumes. Okay. Now in here, I will have my castle. And we can do it in any way that we like. So really, there are no obligations here that you should create it exactly like I did here. No, you can just use your own imagination to make it more beautiful even comparing to mine. But in this system we are only working on a general shaping, and then later on we can add more details to it. Okay. This is also the general shape of my castle. Now, you see, in this area, we can even create some clouds like this. We can have a bigger cloud over here. And in order to create these clouds, we would not create all parts of it in the same size. We create some parts bigger and some parts smaller, so it would be more attractive. And, of course, even after you finished your work, you can add more details to them, but not now. Now, the only general shapes are enough. Okay. And in here, we can add more details. You would do them later. But now that we've got the general idea of what we're going to create, we are going to start working on each one of them separately and develop them one by one. 16. Detailed Design of the Boat: As I said before, I start with my boat, which is also the closest to me. Okay. Because this part has gone inside of the water, I'm just going to create several lines in order to show the ripples on the water, the ripple effect on the water. So just for now, we are completing the shape of work which is above the water and it's out of the water. And then later we will move on to create that ripple effect on the water. So here we go. Now, for these edges, I can create some more designs so that it wouldn't be too simple, you know. I want it to look good. Here we go. You could create any other shapes on your own boat. You can, for example, create chains on your boat or any other design or patterns that you desire. This is your personal boat. You can even create an anchor for it. So as I said before, no obligations and nothing that you should do exactly like mine. Use your imagination, use what you want to see in your work, and connect with it. Okay. Now I'm going to complete this kind of a cabin on top of the boat. I wanted to have a window like this so they can see the outside. And over here, I can create a little roof, but I want to show that it's wooden as well. So I'm using two lines in order to show the volume of this part. Even better. And here I would create some lines. As I said. I want to show that inside of this roof area is made of wood, and the texture is wood. And then we will complete the outer part as well. Again, in here, I'm using two lines to show a volume and to show that's not flat. And then in here, I would also consider a chimney, just a little chimney to show more details. So if you like, again, you can do it simpler than this and have a very plain, simple boat, or you can even make your boat bigger, add more details to it. It all depends on you. I'm just giving you a model. To know where to start and where to finish. I can even create this kind of smoke coming out of the chimney using two lines again. Here we go. Okay. Now for this side, I would also create a window just like that. And then if I want, I can use these lines in order to show the wooden texture of my boat. I can do the same thing to this part, which is also a little bit further from us. Okay. Now, for making my work even more complete, I'm going to erase all these extra lines from my work just like that. And here we go. Okay. So just make sure that you get all these extra lines erased before you can move further, so you wouldn't get confused by any chance. I would also erase these lower lines that I've created. I would erase them as well because as I said, I want to create the edge of the water, the surface of the water, and the ripple effect it's got. So I might just need to rearrange some of the lines there. Here we go. Now, for creating these lines on the surface of the water where the water is actually hitting the boat, they're colliding. I'm going to get some help from this part of our boat, which is already complete. Now I create a round line from it, and I make kind of a U turn and I try to drag it toward the other side of the boat. And then after that, I will also create several lines in the same shape but further from each other. Again, we say, our lines would not have any specific order because we want to have our work to look better, and we want to show that, you know, it has a current. We just want to create a ripple effect. For this back area, we would do almost the same thing. Some lines like this, just like that. So in this way, we can show the texture of the water very well, and we can maybe even add more details to it. We want to specify that we are in the water, so maybe a bottle in the water can help or we can even add several water lilies to show that we are actually in the water. I'm creating these shapes like the things you see in the water. So I'm showing the volume of my water with these better. Also next to them, we are going to create some ripple effects, as I said. It's more consistent to the facts of our water has a current and our objects are in the flowing water. Okay. No, I would also want to complete this area with wooden lines or wood texture lines. And then after that, I can move on to work on my landscapes island. Okay, we're done with the boat for now. 17. Detailed Design of the Island: And even on our island because I want to show that these are some hills, I'm going to create these rounded shapes and curved lines. In here, also, I'm creating a pattern very randomly, not specifically organized in any way. And for this lower part, I get the shape that I like. Now, I'll do the same thing for all these other parts. I can actually create several lines like this and complete the hills or the rocky shores. That's why I'm going to create these rocks right over here to emphasize on the fact that it's a shore and it's an island. I'd also create that part, so I can only say that it's much more further from us, and I do not add any details to it because it's too far, and I just want it to be there to show it's an island and the landscape. Okay, now it's time to complete the castle. As you know, this is exactly what Castle's walls look like. So I'm going to go very typical here and use those shapes. You can have any other shape that you like, but I prefer to, you know, go all the school in this. And we create these parts in two lines so we can show that it has a depth and it has a volume. It has a thickness, you can see. We can also create several lines like this just to show more textures. I mean, with these patterns, I can show the texture of stone. Now I want to work on the towers. This would be one of the towers. I'm just going over its lines a bit more, making them cleaner and adding this typical castle rock shape to them, just like the rock in the chessboard. And then I move on to the other one, and I complete this outer tower as well. Well, in this tower, I can include some windows just to make it look better. And then after that, for this top part of my tower, the roof of the tower, I would separate it and add several lines inside of it in order to show that this is the inner part. We can also work inside of the windows a little, maybe add a little bit of details, and we want to show we have a volume inside. Now for this inner part of my tower, I'm going to work it out. For this top part, sorry. So I'm just creating these patterns in any way that I like. I want the rooftop pattern to look like this. Okay. Now I'm going to create several lines like this for the rest of the tower, the bottom part of the tower. And after that, I will erase all these extra lines, my primary lines, my guidelines, so I can have a better look at it and see if I've missed anything. As I said before, make sure you don't miss any of your extra lines while erasing. And then because I want our hills to even look better, I create several lines like this on my hill just to make them more interesting and more detailed. Also, I'm shading this lower area a little bit because I want to show that this surface of my hill has actually come a little bit forward and has a shadow or a shade on the rocky shore beneath it. All right. Now that our shores and our island has also been done, I can add several more shades over here just to show that it has some kind of a steep or a slope here. And I also shade this part completely because as I said before, it's very far from us and we don't see any details in it, so just shading would be enough. Okay. 18. Final Details: Now for this front part, I can also consider some more details. Like maybe some grass, some moth, some moss or anything else. Now, for over here as well, I can consider another cloud. Just like that. Don't forget about the clouds as well. I also have to erase all the extra lines in my clouds to make them cleaner and look more puffy and fluffy. Here we are. We're almost done with this painting here with this sketch. And I'm just shading these parts a bit too. As I said, just some last touch ups to make your work more realistic or more detailed. I also shade a little just create several slashes on it to show the reflection of the glass texture on the window. That's what I'm going for here. It's very easy. Okay. Now, for this front wooden part that we've got here, we can actually give it a little bit of volume and mix it up. We can also work on this inner parts and darken them. You can add these last touch ups and last details wherever you felt like they're needed. We can shape this area so we can also show it's the inner part of our boat or ship. And in here, we can either continue our work or we can make this part shorter, so we would not continue here. So pay attention to this fact that if you have created this part longer, you should continue. And if not, you can consider this part shorter and you won't need to continue it anymore. Okay. These are totally dependent on your own personal taste, and you can do it the way that you like. Okay, here we are. This is our beautiful island. 19. Preliminary Design of the Cabin and Trees: Hello to all of my dear friends and welcome to another one of our tutorial sessions. Now, in this session, we are going to create several features and elements next to each other and several objects next to each other. And we want to see how we can actually do this. Okay, I want to create a cabin together, and then next to it, we want to have a tree and several more things. Now, obviously, I'm going to start with my main element, my main object, which would be the cabin. Now, in order to get the objects in their proper places and would also get the ground and the land right, first, I'm just going to determine a very general placement of where everything should go on a land. And then we can work on all the different parts separately. So I'm going to determine the land first. Okay. This would be the land of our work. And now I want to work on the placement of my cabin. I would have my cabin over here in this area right in the middle. And then I would also want to work on this top part of the cabin and the roof. So first of all, we are going to determine the general placement of everything, and then in the later steps, we would add more details to them. So this is the general shape of this area. Then we can even work on the center part in here. I like to consider a window for my cabin. Over here, I want to have the front door facing this way. You know, you can obviously make some of these parts coming more forward. Some of them you can take them backwards and move them. So don't worry. Now, all of these are just primary sketches and primary lines, and you would be able to move them later if you want to. So don't worry about it. And for this part, we can come over and create several steps. And again, as I said, right now, we only consider the general spaces and general shapes. Now that we can only see these parts, I'm only going to add just a bit more we cannot say details, but a bit more designs to the cabin like these two parts of wood, one at each end of the roof. This would be the part above the door. It also has a part of the roof coming above the door. See? And later, I would add more details to it, so don't worry. As I said before, you can actually resize everything, replace everything you want. So don't worry about it. If you look at it and you're saying, Okay, I'm not happy with this, you can definitely move it. All of these parts can be replaced based on what we want to have in the end. Unless you haven't entered the detail phase of your work, you can clearly replace anything you want and change your work as much as you like. Okay. Now we would also separate this part toward the side, and it would look like this. Okay. Now over here, I want to create a barrel. So first, I'm going to determine the general shape of the barrel. And over here, I want to create a tree next to my cabin, as I said before. So I'd be starting with my tree trunk. And then after that, I would determine the general volume of my tree branches. And then later I would come to its details. Okay. Now in this part, which is more in the front, I'd like to create a stump I want to consider stump here. And as I said before, you can even add whatever you like into your design. For example, here, I can consider several pine trees just like in the background of my work. I create one of the pine trees very faded, so I would show it's more further from us. And I would create the general shape of the rest of them, and later, I'd add more details to them. Okay. So now I'm only determining the general placements where everything would actually go. And here we go. We can even create the land part, the ground, like this. So it could show that we have maybe cut out a part of the ground and we've separated it, and we are showing it to you like this. I just bring this part down, and then we can even create a pathway for our beautiful cabin here. Very beautiful. And in this area, we can have several flowers. As I said, you can have it in general shapes. Don't worry about the details right now. Just make sure where everything goes, and then later you'll make it more complete. So this is a general step of our work, and later, we are going to add several more details to it. So don't worry. Okay. Now I'm going to determine some more details. But before that, I'm going to erase all the extra parts. So right now, while I'm erasing all these extra parts and extra lines, I'm basically showing you which are my main parts and which parts I want to keep. All right. So everything else should go. I would also erase these parts which have been covered by the tree. Don't forget about them. Okay. Now, I would actually continue my work, and if I needed to erase any other places, I'll do while I'm adding the rest of the details. 20. Details of the Cabin: Now, I'm going to start completing my work from the top of the sketch. And also from one side, I'm starting from the left side from here, just like that. And on the lower part, I'm creating my volume with two lines in order to show that it has a thickness and it has a dimension. This part goes into the cabin. And this part from behind of this wooden part, it would go toward a tree. Now, you can continue the wood going inside of the cabin through the roof. And then we would also take it towards the end. Okay. Now I can come over here and I would use two lines for this part of the roof as well, the edge of the roof. Again, to show that it has a thickness and volume. Now, for this inner part of our wood, we consider some volume for it, and I would also shade this area so we can show it's the inner part of the roof. And with several lines, I create some textures, and then after that, I can also complete my window here. So I would have the inner volume of my window. I just want to show that it has an inside and outside. Okay. Now, because we want to show that this goes into perspective, we can use a line like this, give it some dimension, and we can show the depth of our window. We can continue the wooden part of here. And then I bring this inner part down. Now I'm going to work on facade of this side. As I said here, we've got the front door, but it's got a little part of the roof over it. So I'm going to complete it, and then I'm going to work on this wooden part outside of it, up to here. And then in this part over here, I'm going to show that cut shape of my wood. And with two lines, I will determine its shape. And then I work on this back part. I separate its volume like this and I take it toward the inside. Okay. I would also shade this area again to show this is the inner side of my rooftop above the door. Then I would work on the entrance of the door just like that. Okay. Now I would also want to complete the door. Your door can be short. It can be tall, and it doesn't matter. It can have any design that you like. I just dragged it a little bit higher. So in this part that we've turned, it would actually go behind this rooftop area, and our work look even more interesting. I get a circle shape inside of the door because I just want the door to have some details, and I want it to look better. So I also want to create a door knob and it's lock, maybe. But as I said, don't forget you can choose any kind of design that you like for the door or for the rest of your cabin. And then these are the steps which are in front of the door that they come all the way down. I'm going to work on these steps one by one. And as I'm moving forward, the steps would come more forward. So they would make the next step. And then I would come more forward again, and that would be the last step here. Okay. Now, these are the steps. Now, over here on my cabin, on the roof, I can just create some curved lines like this in order to show that we have some tiles on the roof. And I don't want to overdo it. I don't want to do it very organized shape. You can do that, too. For example, you can create each one of the tiles on the roof. I just don't want to do that. But if you want, you can. Just created several of them randomly to show the texture, that's all. Also, I'm going to create several shapes on the building itself, on the cabin itself. Again, to show the texture and a structure a bit more. I also shade them. So they would be separated from the rest of the cabin and they would actually show themselves. Okay. In this part, I'm going to complete this barrel that I've created before. So here we are just like that. And then I should also erase this part, which is covering the cabin so we can actually complete the wooden part of our barrel. Here we go. Just like that, we would create this inner part of our barrel. And then later we would create its wooden texture with these lines. Make sure that you shouldn't continue your vertical lines through this horizontal line that you've just separated. So be careful about that. You can show the barrel just much more better. Okay, now this is the barrel. You've got the wooden texture in there and maybe the horizontal part would be the metal around it. I also like to create several vertical lines over here on the door to add some more design to it. And then I'd like to complete the doorway area. Even better more. Now, I can also use the same pattern that I used on the window part there. And I would shade these areas a bit more. So they would be separated from the rest of the cabins structure. Okay. 21. Details of the Tree and the Ground: Okay, now I want to work on the pine trees. I wanted one of my pine trees to be more faded. This one. I'm just shading it, so I can show it's much further from us, and that's why it's more faded. Then I would like to work on these pine trees which are more in front and closer to me. So I'm going to work on them more specifically. And I can show them better. And I would also do the same thing for this one right over here. Now, for this upper part, I come down up to a part. Then I create these volume of my leaves here, and then I also come down. Okay. I can also shade another three over here, shade another tree, so I can show that even further from the first one. I would also like to work on this tree that I've created on this side, the windows side and make it more complete as well. Just like that. I give it the shape that I like. If I want, I would add more branches to it. Just like that. And then I would come down this way. Over here, I can even give it some more details. I can even show that our tree has gone into the ground and these are some grasses surrounding it. These are some grass surrounding it. Okay, now on the tree trunk, I can create several lines if I like. Again, none of them are necessary, and you can do them if you want. I like my tree trunk to have a pattern on it. Now let's work on the rest of my tree branches and also the green part of the tree. So I'm going to use some curved lines like this and dress like that. I'm showing you the green space or the green volume of the tree. It should kind of look puffy and fluffy like a cloud. But it would look more attractive, you know. And just like that, I move forward. And over here, I can even add some shapes toward this side. And then you can also use several lines. In order to show that inside of your work, also, there are some volumes, and it's full of leaves, and it's not hollow. It has things inside of it. You see? I would also create one more up here. And there we go. We've got the volume of the tree, and it's completed now. Okay, now I want to work on the ground a bit more on the landscape that we've got here. Now, this would be the edge of the ground that has been turned, and it's also separated. I can make it look cuter and more interesting. And I want to show that this part is grass and it can be separated from the ground beneath it. Okay. I can also shade these parts so that I can show these are the parts underneath the other parts just like that. Okay. Here we go. Now, I would do the same thing for this other side or better say up to this other side. Then I would complete the cabin even more wherever I've left some things undone, I can complete them more now. Make these parts more complete. And also, I'll do them on this side as well. I just turn around here and just like that, I would separate the grass from the ground underneath it. Okay. Here we go. I also shade this area. And now I would also like to work on these flowers that I wanted to create here. I create several of them. I want to just have several piece of petals, and that was the last flower. Okay. Now I'd like to work on the pathway. In front of the front door, and I work on each one of these stones on the pathway. I can even consider several little stones. All the way down in between the bigger ones just to make my work look more interesting. And I can even use two lines for some part of the stones again in order to give them some dimension. This is a stone pathway, so I might just give some details to the stones. And then just like that, I would bring them down all the way until the part we can see them. Here we go. So we just keep going and moving forward and we can have the stones in any shape that we want them to be just like that. All right. Yeah, this part has also been done. We want to work on this stump that we've created here as well. You want to see how we can work on this one. Okay. Now, I'd like to work on this inner part or the top surface of it like that. Then I'm going to create some shapes over here on the bottom in order to show the roots. Of our stumps. This would be the roots of the stump. C just work on it like this easily. Even in some parts like this, we can show that we have grass on the ground underneath the stump. Also several lines to emphasize on the wooden texture of our stump. Alright, so here we go. This is our beautiful cabin with several other natural objects or some unnatural ones like the barrel. Okay. And now, again, it's time for me to get the eraser and erase all these extra lines we've got around our work. We should also erase these inner lines inside of our tree, which was related to our primary sketch. You can easily erase them. And actually, we should erase them. This way, you would have a much more cleaner job and outcome, and the whole result would be neater and better. 22. Final Details of the Cabin: Then after that on this wooden area, again, we can create several patterns with simple curved lines like this. Again, just to emphasize on the texture of these parts, which is wood. So here we go. All right. Just like that. And over here on this part of my structure, I can even create a bird. But as I said before, all of these details depend on your own personal taste and on what you want to have as your landscape and scenery overall. I want my work to be even a bit more cuter, so I've decided to add a bird over here right above the roof. Okay. This would be the beak of our bird. And then I can move on to work on its body. And because I want its head to be turned, I actually drag the body toward this side. This is the wing. And I can also create a shape like this to show this is the inner part of the body or better say, these are the feathers on the chest. And also, I've used only two lines to show its legs standing on the rooftop. Okay. This is our beautiful scenery here. I hope you've enjoyed it. And just like that, you can have your work done very easily. With all the objects that you like, with any design that you like, so go for it, work on it, and try to create it as you like it and be creative. Just some shades on the beak, and we're done. I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial as much as the others, and I wish you can create your own beautiful sceneries. I like that, and we're done. Good luck.
