Transcripts

1. Intro: Hello, and welcome to draw with Boba. In this video lesson, you will learn how to draw. Hello, Katy, step by step Kami, Cine Maro, and finally rope for our final drawing for Volume one. 2. How to draw keropi : Oh. M. 3. How to draw cinnamaroll: H. 4. How to draw hellokitty : Go right at the top of page, and then just want to go round but also wide. Sketch it in lightly, then we're going to go a little better. That's me. Don't worry about having. We're going to draw over it with a black line afterwards. Let's put the face in half. So we have a good indication of what the middle point is. Let's go right to the middle and then we're going to go a little lower for the eyes. I go right here, draw cross section to the eyes. And before we draw into details, let's block in the rest of the right. Let's go ahead and move this a little bit. To get started, I have a reference photo of your drawing. Today we'll be drawing hell kitty, and then we're going to add another layer, and this is where we're going to do the sketch layers. Let's just rename this sketch. Just sell me know. And then we're going to start with the head. It's just going to be a circle. A bit, so it's on val, so lightly sketch it in. That's look good, and then we're going to go line down the middle. And right there, right in the middle, we're going to go a little lower and we're going to draw a line across to the eyes. Don't worry about being perfect. We're going to draw in inking lines afterwards. For the body, we're going to start off with the middle of the hip right around here, both sides. I' go down two lines a little bit outwards, and we're going to end it down here. For the body and split it right down the middle. And one side, we're going to add one leg. The other side it is going to be an oval for the other lake And then we just need a little bit of detail in the color and then to. Super easy. For arm, let's draw in a line. Start from here, we're going to draw a line from here for the body the leg is right in time and middle of the body. We go up and then a circle right here just to catch the arm and a little circle right here for the thumb. On the other side, same thing, we're going to go downwards, middle of the body. Circle circle for the thumb. The yes, it's just going to be two eyes right using the center line that we earlier. So and I nose right in the middle. A little lowers the yes. And the whiskers, 21 right here, just trot some in below the cer later. And two more. For the ears, let's go right almost like split from here to here or go up go back down to the head and same on the side for the ear. We're going to draw the ear before we draw in the flower. And the floor of the flower, it's just going to be a circle right around here. Then we're going to draw in ovals just to make it easier. We're going to draw in five ovals all around. It looks a little messy, but this is a sketch. We're going to do this. We're going to go to sketch, go to opacity, 30%, add a new layer. Let's go out and go to inking. Let's find a good ink pen. Let's try pan, black to dark. Let's create our own. Let's go into pan duplicate. You go to Let's see a pencil size. Let's go a little bit. That a little Siplization go to amount. Just add these up, and this should give us a really smooth pen to work with. D a new layer's call it in. Make sure it's black, and we want to zoom in and start inching our drawing. Give it a nice big size. That's something good. And if you hold it for a little, I'll go, I'll go to a perfect hold. Good. Here. Continue to a here, and then we're going to stop here for the Ears. T. Then whiskers. The whiskers. So good for the arm. And then we have a little bumper here in the body line. The body here. Just following their sketch. Takes a lot easier. Sketch down. We're just cleaning it up. All drawing is done. We just need to turn off our skit layer, have a clean ne turn this into a reference. Add a new layer below this color. Then we're just going to color pick and in to complete our drawing. Super easy. You can use this method to draw any story of character you'd like. Let's take a step further. We're going to add a new layer. Actually, go back to the same. You need to pour in the white. This next step is really important. We're going to go clipping mass, multiply. Add a little bit of a blue color. Then we're going to go to this. Make sure it's free hand color fill. We're going to draw in some shadow lines to create nice depth part of character. So shadowy. Quick way to add some death. Just give her a nice big a little bit for the ball. Ears. Go white. Hear the eyes. There you go. You very own allocating try. Thank you so much watching and see you in the next one. 5. How to draw keromi : Okay. Take your time with this one. Big oval. What? Split it right down the middle. Then go in the middle, but a little lower, maybe one quarter down line across. For the body, let's just drop in let's do one circle right here. And another circle right below it. Can give us jelly be cheap. And then for the feet, it's just going to be board here and one right in front of it. So Hand's going to be two circles. Right around here from son the elbows in the middle of the arm and circle here. All right once we're done with the sketch lines, let's draw in the collar. Color, let's start up with the paper right around here on either side. I go out Opike. Let's just draw collar one, two, back to the arm. On the other side, just give you one. Then we just need one, two, three circles for the tail, it just going to be a triangle, let's go right here, simple triangle and connect it to the body. Now, let's go the details of the head. It's going to be a little bit more complicated. Let's go and draw a line right in the middle also. This is going to help us with our design. Splitting the thing. We're going to use the center point right here a little lower and we can go V shape from that. Top around here, and then go back out. Either side, and then draw in two big ovals. Draw in the whole oval first, and then draw a line to cut in the eyes to give her the angry face. Now we need a little nose in the middle. Smile. And two teeth. And for this cold, it's just going to be right around here. We're going to draw in another oval. To and then two notches, two smaller circles. For the ears, let's go over here a little bit like an inch across two lines straight up, and we're to draw in two triangles. One, two connected back to the head and two circles at the end of the tangles. That's looking like a sketch to start. Same thing. We're going to lower sketch light capacity. Add a new layer and it's going to be, we're going to go back to black pen. Let's use the pen we created before. We're going to use the pen that we created earlier. So give us a nice smooth. Let's go and zoom in and use our sketch. Draw in file drawing. Let's go with the nose first. Mile For the eyes, make sure to go for the bottom line across to line across two little eyeshes. Side of the face go in and throw in the helmet cheap. See if we can do a slower one. For a little longer and shift do the bell. They we could do a better one. Take your time. Okay. Let's split it into multiple strokes. Forward here, Bruce. In the middle back around. That's looking good for the ears. Top around here. Go back. Do around here. I the fall outside. Okay. I rode the hands start off of the circle. Elbow. Collar. And the other arm it's going to be right. And file a straw in the button. C for little butt back into the leg. And right in front the tail to be from here, triangle the tail and back to the body. That's a dry, withdraw tide our ski lines, add a new layer and ski before the color. We could just color pick. Make sure the line is a reference. I just fill in the correct areas. Super black. Peak. I was black. To the light to add shadows Mi M. Go to this free hand color cell. Turn to light and draw into the shadows. You see. Make sure it's multiplied. Darkens dark areas, too. That's looking great, and there's your picture of. Thank you so much watching, and I'll see you in the next drawing.
