Vote for the July Tutorial Video! 🎥✏️✨

Hello everyone! :)

We just got back from our trip and I’ve been spending the morning going through all your tutorial suggestions, so here is a poll with the most popular requested topics! I’ve written down all your suggestions in my notes as well to use for future content ideas :) they help me soooo much, so thank you all for leaving suggestions!!

Alrighty, there are a LOT of options this month! 👀🫶🏻 Here‘s a lil preview about each one:

• How to Make a Webtoon: In this video I’ll show you guys how to get started on creating a Webtoon! I’ll show how I simplify my art style for quick comic-style drawings, how I color for a comic style, how I create quick backgrounds for my scenes, and all the tools I'm using to work on creating my Webtoon! This will also include a section where I show you my process of working on some actual illustrations for my comic from start to finish 🖤
• How to Paint with Digital Watercolor: This video will be a detailed guide on how to paint with digital watercolor! I’ll lead you through each step of how to build up the colors and values, textures and details, and more 🫧
• Cinematic Movie Studies: In this video we’ll be drawing some movie scenes together to study capturing a cinematic look! There will be a focus on dramatic lighting, color themes, composition, emotion, and more 🎥
• Character Interactions Tutorial: In this video I’ll be sharing my techniques and process on how to draw two characters interacting in a scene! We'll be covering how to make the composition work around two characters, how to create balance, and how to capture a special spark & feeling in their interaction 👯‍♀️
• Dynamic Gesture Sketching: For this video I’ll be showing you guys how to effectively draw gesture sketches with speed and a dynamic touch! This will include how to quickly translate a reference subject into a drawing with sketching tips ✏️
• How to Draw Different Ages: In this video we’ll be studying how to draw characters that are different ages! We’ll be creating stylistic character designs of children, teenagers, adults, and elderly characters ⏰
• How to Draw Dramatic Emotions: In the past I’ve covered how to draw expressions (like smiling, frowning, looking sad, etc) but this video will cover some more extreme/dramatic emotions for expressions! We’ll cover how to draw screaming, laughing, silliness, being in love, and more 😈

Yayyy those are the topics!! I’m super excited to see what you guys choose :) It’s multiple choice so you can pick the ones that look most appealing to you! I’ll be posting another poll for our bonus video this month soon too so stay tuned for that if you’re a Devoted Dragonfly patron! 💕 

Have fun and happy voting :)
