Here's some notes on some of the upper body muscles so you, artist, don't need to look them up
They are not medically accurate, just enough for artists to know the necessary muscles and how they work together
I 100% recommend doing the last exercise I did to be able to actually place the muscles
This is so dramatic

tsorin answered your question “Doodle night”
Arslan and Gieve
The last one for yesterday’s Doodle Night (that actually went on until morning). I had an urgent business to attend after doing chibi 707 and after that I basically passed out lol. Sorry for the lateness.
And thank you everyone who gave suggestions! With this, Doodle Night ends.

Remember, there’s not one way to draw things! You don’t have to draw it exactly like this , but you can apply certain things from this. This is just a little process we hope that might be useful to others out there! More to come, y’all!
Edit: Something else to keep in mind ! It’s something we see from other artists who put tutorials online and the result after they post it - When coming across a tutorial , taking the technique or the simplification of a process and carrying that over to your own way of drawing things is a lot more beneficial than copying the exact composition/subject matter/color pallet . If it’s for practice , that’s fine! But don’t let a tutorial direct ( or discourage) you in a way that isn’t your own unique way of drawing . If you’re in search of finding a style of your own , then finding helpful tutorials is a great way to expand your knowledge of techniques rather than doing exact copies of the actual art itself. :) And just to add , we’re big fans of Evyind Earle! His technique of graphic simplification is something we’re learning ourselves as we try to apply the photoshop layers in a similar , simpler fashion. He’s a good artist to learn from , so hopefully this tutorial was helpful in deconstructing admirable aspects of some awesome work from different artists we enjoy! And if you did this tutorial , please let us know. We’d love to see what you did !
God is looking down at tumblr like "wtf? You was meant to be a crazed place, of dark fantasies and gay smut?!"

Clothes
Hi Ennun! Do you have any tips for drawing folds and wrinkles in clothing? I always have trouble with placing them in the right places.
I can show you a few drawings with different clothing so maybe it’ll help you understand.
When you draw clothes, you should keep in mind what kind of fabric they are made of:
lower body:
For pants and such, the folds usually occur around the crouch, the knees and the ankles. For skirts, it really depends on the kind and the length. Skirts made from a full circle have folds at he base, those made with a longer piece of fabrics have folds at the waist (or top) and depending on whether it’s fluffy or not, there’s folds at the base as well, or not.
full body:
When you draw dresses, think of how they hug around the body. For example, baby doll dresses have an upper part that closes in with the lower part under the breasts. Then, depending on the material, you need to draw more or less folds. Also keep in mind that these folds need to go around the boobs, so don’t just make straight lines, give the body volume.
Same goes for really flowy materials (like drawing 4) When you drape it over the breasts, make sure you show it.
upper body:
For upper body, shirts and such usually fold at the armpits, the elbows, the waist and the wrists. If clothes are hugging the body, then there are folds around the chest and abs area too, and just as with the breasts, make sure they’re not straight lines, because they’re defining the body.
You can draw straight lines if it’s a large shirt, because then the material is so big that it doesn’t really touch the rest of the body, and if it does, it’s just the waist.

A quick Hot Tip for drawing shoes from me; a man who enjoys looking at shoes maybe too much
It’s good to draw some kind of foot looking shape before you draw shoes so they’re like the right size and shape but sometimes I see people draw soles as like flat things hovering under the feet but if you look at your own shoes you’ll see that the inside of your shoes are not flat, they’re bottom of your foot shaped and your feet sink into them a bit so they’re comfortable and not like slapping an oval block of wood to your foot
So the outside band on shoes is usually somewhere higher than you might think
Of course in many real shoes there’d be a bit of an arch from a raised up heel or something, so I probably should have drawn some feet instead of lazying out, but hopefully you get the idea.

i liked beyoncé’s lemonade video a totally normal amount, and this was an excellent use of my time. 🍋🐝

Very good sai ref
i get a ton of asks about my SAI brushes again, and these are kinda outdated (and incorrectly translated in some places, i believe?) so there you go
