1. Introduction: Hello, my dear students. Welcome to this course. I am Bryana, and this course
is designed for beginners. In this course, you are
going to learn how to use alcohol-based markers and how to draw illustrations and
creative drawings. Students, I use
alcohol markers for this course and some
colored pencils and some other materials to. I explained all the
things you need to know and I explain
every step in detail. And for your help, I showed that
real-time art process. This course is going to be very easy for all the students. I explain which
material you need, how to draw the outline, how to use markers and
techniques you need to use. Other than the yeas. I also show how to
make your drawing creative and how to build
your own art style. I hope you liked this
course. Thank you. So let's start this course.
2. Art Materials you need : Hi students. So let's talk about which materials you
need for this course. First thing you need
is a good paper. For the paper, you can use
smooth or medium green paper. And the GSM should be
more than one 20th. Gsm suggests that it is
better to use 160 or 200. The next thing you need is
graphite pencils for outlet. So use any HB pencils or you can use any HB
mechanical pencils. Then you need one black marker. And I use some
alcohol-based markers. Here, I use
alcohol-based markers. You can also use any
other brand that you are. The best alcohol marker, I say is Copic marker, but they are a little
bit expensive. So I suggest that you use woohoo marker if you don't have that budget or if
you're a big nudge. Another art material, I
use, yellow watercolor. You can also use
this yellow color. But if you don't want
to use watercolor, then you can use
alcohol-based marker also. It depends on you. And another thing is a
black market that I use. It can be cheap. Okay? So that's all, that's all the material
I use in this course. So let's start the next part.
3. How to draw outline: Hello students. So let's start trying outline. For outline, I use HB
mechanical pencil, and paper. I use is one-sixteenth
GSM mixed media paper. So for the outline, I am drawing shapes first
because it makes easier to have an idea like where to start and how to draw the
complicated drawing. You'll need to draw the shapes according
to the reference. Here, I am drawing
the unique fish. So I draw this kind of shapes. Now while trying outline, use less pressure and tried to hold the pencil
from a little behind. One thing that I
noticed in beginner is that they use too much
pressure while drawing. And because of this, they're drawing
doesn't look good. Given when I am beginner, I used to do the same mistake, but I corrected later. So one thing you
can do is you can practice drawing
outline every day. Outline is something that
you can't learn fast. It needs it needs practice
and a little more time. So practice everyday, around
30 min for one month. Or if you don't have
that enough dying, then practice at least four days every week for like two months. And after completing this, you can see a major
difference in your outline. I see that difference. So I would say
that try this out. Here. I'm drawing I is according
to the reference. I did for Luther reference
picture accurately. I like sometimes I just
draw things alike, which is easier for me. So you can also do that. If it's not Commission Work. Commission was then yeah, you need to follow everything
according to their friends. But if it's not, then just do it one way, break it down and make little different shapes
than the reference photo. So I use that method and wanting is I use HB, mechanical
graphite pencil. So if you don't want to use this kind of
mechanical pencil, then you can use the normal
graphite pencils to use HB. Okay? I like HB
pencils for outline. You don't need to be
afraid of making mistakes. It's okay if you
made any mistake, was trying out line harm, maybe coloring, to
think too much, just do it one way. And yeah, I think I am almost completed
the outline process. I need to fix it a little bit. Students, one thing you need to know is that
you don't need to follow everything you
see in the reference. Break the outline in simple
shapes and add details. Like how I'm drawing
this outline. And another thing
is that I attached the drawing in attachment and
clustering lecture section. So you can use that
as a reference. You can go to the
class project section. And you can use that reference
and draw when you like. And when you start showing, you can draw along with me, along with my drawing process. Right now, we completed
the outline process. So let's move to
the next part and learn how to erase it a
little bit. So let's see.
4. Outline part 2: So students already
completed the drawing and the outline process in
the previous part, right? So now you need to erase
this outline a little bit. Like don't erase it. Like don't erase
the whole outline. Just erase those
part where you use benzyl 34 times and
it's a bit darker. So dark lines can create problems in future
coloring process. So you need to erase
it a little bit. Now, erase it slightly. And now it is it slightly so that the
lines are less visible. And yeah, you can do this step. And It's kind of important too. And you can follow this video to understand what I'm
trying to explain. Okay. So we completed the
erasing process also. Now need to color this drawing. So let's move to the next part. What I showed the
coloring process. Thank you.
5. How to color : Hey, students completed
the outline process in the previous class, and then we completed the
adjusting process also. Now, let's learn how to
color the whole drawing. In this class, you
will learn how to use alcohol-based markers. You already know that
I use all markers. So let's start this course. At first, I covered the
idea and some other part. Using black marker
for the outline. You can use any type of
black marker that you have, or you can use a black, dark colored pencil tool. But I suggest ten marker, like something like
a micron pens. Now, let's color the fish. Here. I use medium blue
tone for the fish, and I am calling few
areas where it is needed. You can watch closely to
understand my techniques. And another thing is I
use very less pressure. And here, hi, I'm
working very slowly. I recommend you to
work slowly while coloring because you might
messed up a little bit. And another thing is, don't throw up the paper too
much because it make to you. So enjoy the art process
and work slowly. I feel artists all
about fun, right? So don't feel pressured. Slowly work and build
your creative side. Art is a skill that
you can learn easily. But it takes time. That's it. So practice as much as they can and create a love for you. For this drawing. I am not using the exact color palette as
the difference because, you know, I'm not doing
the idealism here. I am drawing and creating some creative art
kind of drawing. Or you can sketch. So that's why I feel
I don't need to use the exact same color
palette as the reference. Or if you want to use
the same color palette, you can use that. But I suggest that you choose, choose colors according
to your taste. Here, one thing I need to
make clear that I'm not saying that don't
use the same colors. If it's blue, use
yellow, not like that. Like if it's blue, use blue but maybe
not the same tone. Because mostly, I know
when you are beginner or when you are just
starting drawing, you don't have all
the colors that because hard materials are
actually very expensive, red show, most people
don't have lots of colors. So this is a problem,
not only beginners. If you ask me, I also don't have enough colors. So for that reason, I suggest that use color. They use the same door. But the tools you have, that technique is mainly
one that you need, a lighter tone, which you're
going to share it first, and then you need a medium tone. And lastly, you will
need a darker tone. So here you can see
I'm using blue. So the next thing
I'm going to use, our use is also blue, but a medium tone, which is not gonna be
too dark or too light. And then I'm going to
share the darker here. And if I need to blend
it a little bit, I'm going to use
the lighter tone. Well, first the darker one. Soon. Understand, right? So I'm going to do and yeah, but other than that, you need maybe black. Black is I think really like when you were
sketching and they're using alcohol marker and stop. You all almost like every time in need of black
sketch pen or marker. And yeah, that's how I do it. Here. You can see I'm
using a medium tone, shading it, creating a values and dark values, Miriam values. So you can do that too. Like when you are
following the difference, I would say that it fits, but we choose purple. But maybe the tone is
a little different. And don't think that you
don't have enough colors. If you have 12 colors, you can create fairly good art with only a setup
to help colors. When I used to be a
beginner, I just started, I is to feel that I don't
have enough colors. How can I draw this or that? But now we understand
actually that we don't need lots of colors to make an art and less
is better, I guess. Oh, another thing I
want to say that if you want to learn realistic art, you can visit my account and watch the other courses
to learn about realism. But this course is about
creative art for beginners. And that's how
we're going to do. I'm here creating some lines and shading keys Soon. How we are going to add
a little dark value. According to judge your friends while loop practice
this drawing. I suggest you to watch all the
classes and tried to learn how I shared and how I'm
using my hand to draw. Because watching how
the artist is drawing is more beneficial than
listening to their words. I use for this
coloring process is the techniques I use for this coloring
process is at first, I use the medium
tone, lighter tone, according to the reference
leg for this drawing, I use medium blue. Then we are going to add that
little dark values, right? And then we're going to use all the dark values
that is needed, like black, like a dark blue. Then we are going
to add some details like highlighted
radio and others. So guys, I'm shading this area where
using this kind of color, this is not the
exact yellow color, but it is yellow. Greenish tend. So I'm shading it all over. And I saw this color
on the reference. And I thought let's use
this kind of colors. So it looks a little
creative panel. And if you feel like
look at it somewhere, you will find it interesting to look because
of this kind of colors. So I'm using these
colors lightly and I want to shade other
colors on top of the hair. So after I use other colors, it may not be visible too much, but it's going to look at, I know I am shading with the blue color and here I fast this process a
little bit because, um, because, you know, this is just simple feeling, simple collaging things and
everyone can feel the colors. So that's why I asked
it a little bit. And him here, I'm
drawing the lines with a secret colors and making it a little
darker and adding the This attic and coloring
this kind of abs. Okay, students, so let's watch
the course a little bit. I'm going to talk to
you after some time. If you're using
alcohol-based markers, the sheets in the gap doesn't
match the actual sheet. I don't know about Copic marker, but this is the
thing with markers. So you need to swatch it
like indifferent papers. If you are using a thick paper, then the color may look
a little different. And if you're using
a thin paper, the color may vary. Okay. Show the color. Changes a little bit
according to tap paper also, you know, which kind of
paper you are using. If you're using, if you're using a watercolor paper
and sometime you may use the pads for
alcohol markers. The result of the color
actually vary sometimes. And it's this thing I'm telling you is from
my own experience, I use the Woo-hoo once. A Copic markers is
actually expensive, so I didn't bought those. But I feel low. Martha's are great Also. You can use them. If you are paying. Then you can upgrade to Copic marker
if any, feel happy. The money. I wouldn't recommend
Copic marker when you are first trying to use
alcohol-based marker. So here I am lining
this kind of parts. I'm going to kind of
outline the areas. And I'm using are cheap marker. You can use a micron or
maybe a black marker. Any black, my marker with a
fine tip would work for this. It doesn't need to be too thin, but don't use that
kind of marker. Okay, so I think this marker
costed me only for $1. You can get almost
eight markers. So it's that kind of J. And I also have microns, but I don't know
why I keep those. So here I'm using this
marker and I'm shading it, scribbling it a little bit. One thing I feel, you know, alcohol-based markers
are really good. Like you can actually like
when you are using it. It took some time. Like when it dries. Like the color looks so good, like blended and smooth. So I actually love this medium, alcohol-based
marker medium. And paper actually matters. I would say, use a little thick paper for
alcohol-based markers. If you're using it,
one thing, papers, it may not work and it may
look worse than you expect. So I would say use
our dark thick paper, show and that's it. That's it. So we completed this part. And now let's move
to the next part.
6. How to color part 2: So students, we completed
all the process. Now. We need to do
some little works. So here I'm using a black
colored pencil to add details. I'm lining these kind of areas where I feel I need to use this kind
of black colors. Or if you want to use any
other colors like blue or any other query you can use that if you feel that
you need to deal, even need to add details. And then I'm going to
use this white color. This is white Jelly Roll pen. It is basically a gel
pen, white in color. So here I'm using
Sakura Gelly Roll pens. And if you don't have
this brand around you, you can use other brands. There are different
brands available. So if you don't have the, if you don't find
the white gel pens, then you can use white
acrylic markers, acrylic paints, or you
can use Weidner to. So here I add details
with a white gel pen. Now I have this bucket, this water, because I'm
going to use watercolor. Now, if you don't like
watercolor or whatever, if you don't want to do
this step, you can skip it. But I like this. It looks creative. This
is like my kind of step. This is my kind of style. So I'm going to paint around
the first with watercolor. So I mostly like to use yellow color because it's bright and I really
love this color. Here. I'm mixing these two
colors together. And we're going to use this one paper so that
it looks creative. And I already told you
that I liked this step. And if you want to do this step and you don't have watercolor, then you can use alcohol
marker in yellow color too. But I like to use the
watercolor because it gives really creative field and it
makes the drawing pop out. It makes the drawing
little code. I don't know how
to explain this, but yeah, that we
understand, right. So here I am painting. I'm like coloring a little
bit around the face. Now, if you never
used watercolor, if you don't know how
to use watercolor, I want to say don't mix
the water too much. They use a little
amount of water and then mix it with the
colors and then apply it. Okay. That's Dutch rule. Because if you use too much water from messed
up and walk slowly, use a small size paintbrush. And yeah, we all we're
all done with this. And I already told you this
is the step makes the drawing looks a little more birthday
and it looks so good, so good. I can explain. I think you also
liked this tab too, but I love it and that's all I hope you like this
course will furnish. We finish all the art process
and here's the result. What I came up with, and I suggest you to post your artworks in the
class project section. And I'm going to review it. So let's move to the next part.
7. End part : Hi student. So finally, we completed
all the drawing process. And I hope you like this course. Now, I suggest you to post your artwork class
project section. And if you have any questions, you can feel free to ask me. And students. Practice drawing, outline,
and coloring when you get free time and build and
build your own art style. I hope you enjoyed
this course and see you in my next class with
some other fun art courses. Thank you.
