1. Class Introduction: What up, everybody. This is Yi. Welcome to another step by step tutorial. Today, I'm going to teach you how to draw Gtanks from JagubllZ. We are going to draw GTanks in a free cods pose. We'll start by sketching, then move on to inking using inking pens, and finally coloring with some copic markers. By the end of this class, make sure to take a picture of the drawing you did and submit it. I want to see your results. That's it. Let's get started. 2. How to draw and color Gotenks : Okay, so today we are going to draw the fusion result between gotten and trunks from Jargon Z. Before we start, please make sure to draw a perfect square each side is 4 centimeters. But you can draw it in any size. You want to just make sure to use a suitable paper size. So without further ado, let's get to it. We'll start by drawing Gotteng's face. We'll do that by using five lines. And then we're going to use this guideline to mark the center of the face. Next, we're going to draw the wrinkles between the eyes. Following up with the eyebrow and to create the eye, we use two diagonals and a curve underneath. Next, we'll add the cheek marks by using two lines and three more curves. And we're going to do the same process for the left side. But this time it will appear a bit smaller because of the angle. We draw the bumps above the eyes and the iris. And to create the nose, we'll use five lines. And as you can see, I'm still using the guideline to place the nose in the right area. Next, we're going to give him a cocky smile. We'll do that by using two lines and we'll indicate his chin. Next, we're going to draw his hairline. As you can see, the side burn is parallel to the eyebrow. And then from that point, we're going to draw the ear. We'll start with the shape and then add the details inside. Sweet. Next, we draw the neck. Then we are going to draw two spikes, one on each side. As you can see, I'm doing that by using three lines. And then we're going to use this guideline to help us draw the rest of the spikes without worrying about keeping the right proportions. And then we're going to refine the hair by adding some lines in the direction of the spike. Also, next, we're going to draw the torso. We'll first start by drawing the neck muscles. As you can see, they are not as defined as the grown characters like Gco and vegeta. We'll add two lines to indicate the trap muscles. Then we're going to use this guy line to mark the center of his torso, and then from that point, we're going to draw the chest muscles and the ebs right below. Next, we're going to draw his vest. Then we're going to draw the puffy things on top of his vest. It kind of looks like he has a worm wrapped around his neck, massive worm. How do you like that metaphor? And then we're going to draw the arm by drawing the shoulder, then the tricep and the bicep. And we add another worm to this side. Next, we'll add his right arm. And then we are going to refine the worms by adding some creases to them. Awesome. Now that it's done, we can take the black pen and just go all over the lines. I'm usually using 0.2, that's the size of the inking pen, but you can also use 0.1 or 0.3. Just make sure to hold the pen closer to the tip. That way you will have more control. And just like I'm doing, please rotate the page so you can go with your natural hand movement and just simply push or pull lines. Please bear in mind that inking can be very tough at the beginning. The more you practice, you will gain more control. Your hand muscles will get stronger and therefore you will be more accurate. So it really takes time. Don't be so hard on yourself. Just keep at it and you will get better. Trust Uncle Yair. Awesome. Once it's clean and smooth, we're going to get rid of all the lead, and then we can start using the Copic markers. But if you don't have copic markers, you can use color pencils or you can use your HB two pencil and do some shading just like I explained in the black and white tutorials. But this time we're going to use Copic markers. Those are alcohol based markers, which means they can blend very well. And without further ado, we are going to start by coloring the skin tones. For that, we're going to use three tons. We'll start with the darkest one, coloring the most shaded areas. Next, we're going to use the mid tone. It's going to be YR 02, and as you can see, I'm coloring in the direction of the shape. By adding more and more layers, I'm getting a more solid color Once we are done with that, we're going to use the brightest tone. It's going to be e00. And just like before, I'm coloring in the direction of the shape, adding more layers to get more saturation, to get more color on the paper. And as you can see, I'm not doing as much blending because I want to get that celoid look, that cell shading look just like in the anime. Awesome. We are going to do the same process for those worms. Again, starting with the darkest tone. Next, using the mid tone and finally the brightest tone. This time, it's going to be a dark mustard, following up with a mi tone of yellow, and then a very bright tone of yellow. If you want the codes, it's going to be Y 28, then Y 13, and finally y00. Next, you're going to color the vest. For that, you can use gray tones or a very dark purple tone. For the vest, I do want to blend the colors just to create a very nice effect, a gradient effect. Also, once we're done with that, we're going to use two colors to color the eye. We start with a blue green, and as you can see, I'm leaving a tiny blank area on the far left side. Then we're going to use a brighter tone of green, thus creating a very nice transition. I like the word thus. Awesome. Now it's time to color his glorious hair. For that, we are going to use three tones just like before. We start with a very dark brown and again, coloring in the direction of the shape. After that, we are going to use a gold tone that's going to be Y 17. That's a golden yellow. And to finish up, we're going to use a buttercup yellow that's Y 21. Now, you don't have to use the same codes I'm using for the copic. You can just use a bright yellow, and you will be fine. And we are done. Everybody. This is how you draw Gtangs from DragonbollT Les Dragon Boll Super. Please let me know how you did in the comment section. Tell me on which area you struggled or what area was much easier for you guys. Share this information with me so I can make these tutorials more understandable. That's it for today. Thanks for watching. Keep being Awesome as always. And I'll see you on the next video. Please.
