So I would get another paper and put it on top of my original, place a white light under my glass table to make the page translucent, and then draw the final outline lines. After many redraws and erases I would have my final drawing in black ink and a really bad looking white piece of paper with many eraser marks and pencil scratchs. Then I would add darker lines in pencil, then black ink. I would sketch the initial drawing (in another scale, usually making it bigger) trying to imitate the original image. I spent almost like 2 to 3 hours making a single drawing, sometimes more. The technique I most used to ‘study’ how to draw without a teacher was copying drawings I really liked and scrutinizing all the proportions and details of the drawing that made it look good.
However, even though that’s my case, I really enjoy ‘studying’ how to draw on my free time. Most of us are really busy with some other stuff, work, study, projects, and can’t manage to have regular drawing classes. Learning how to draw without a teacher is a hard road. I enjoy drawing very much, although I am really not real good at it, but I can say I really became better over the years. Well maybe not, but if you like drawing, and you want to learn how to draw better this is your chance! 😉 Are you a fan of anime, manga, and all that japanese stuff?!
