Step-by-Step: Character Sketch! ✏️✨

Hello again lovelies! 🤗✨

Here it is! A step-by-step for my Aloy character sketch! 🥳 These are the basic steps I followed in this drawing‘s process and I hope you guys can benefit from it 💛  I tried to keep my process pretty simple for each of my #sixfanarts characters, and it was sooo much fun! It feels nice to shift my focus onto some looser & sketchy work 😌

I hope you all have a happy weekend!! 

Love,

Lydia ✏️

Aw yay I’m so glad you found it helpful!! ☺️ and yes I totally think so! It really helps you to nail your values and shade more effectively in my opinion 😌 you can see my recent tutorial video on the grayscale to color method for a more detailed walkthrough if you haven’t seen it yet!!

This is so helpful! Is putting shadows down in greyscale easier for the eyes? I have been struggling so much with the shading of my drawings.. i will try this out for sure!

EyLizzy

Yes! I actually click “copy canvas” and then “paste” onto a new layer so that all the layers are merged. The layer mode is set to Normal :) 💛

Lydia Elaine

Hi Lydia, Thank you for you time , could you please let me know if we have to merge all the above 3 layers into one and set it to which blend mode , could you please explain me that 4th steps. thanks in advance :)

Passing from greyscale to color is a must know! Thank you for your perfect tips! I tried it and I struggle between the red curve and the first flat color. They are directly very saturated 🥺. Maybe my grayscale is too contrasted ?

Noémie Deschenaux

Of course!! Have fun and good luck! ☺️💖

Lydia Elaine

This looks so helpful! I can’t wait to try it, thank you! 😁

miss_maiva

This is super useful! Thanks for this, Lydia 😊

Adam Hendel

Simple and clear as always! I will definitely try it for the next characters! Thanks <3

Sara Rebecchi

Yay! I’m glad it’s helpful! 😁💖✨

Lydia Elaine

Yes I did! 💖 Using the add layer is super easy because you can just use the colors that are already there to create really pretty highlights 😁

Lydia Elaine

What you add highlights with the add layer did you use the same colours that were already on the painting? ☺️ X

Georgia Laban

This is so helpful and nice!! Thanks Lydia <3

So glad to hear that! 💖 I remember when I first started using Procreate it felt overwhelming at first, but eventually it does get easier! Keep practicing, you got this! ✨

Lydia Elaine

I just started using Procreate and it’s not all that easy to get down, your tips are really helpful tho so Thank You!!

Nobody
