the pictures from the clothing livestream! unfortunately I drew them all while talking, but hopefully i’ll be able to record them in the future

The main point of the entire lecture however was when approaching any kind of clothing or pattern its important to break it down. Before starting on the final picture do several roughs where you draw out the design (even if it looks ugly). That way you understand the composition and can either reduplicate it OR change it up to fit your needs!

lace, jewelry, prints, and fancy designs are in fact comprised of a bunch of very simple replicated images. what seems impossible is in fact just crescents, hearts, and tiny circles! or a series of diamonds with smaller diamonds and circles inside (diamondception). Same with complicated fashion; identify the large shapes and the angle of the body then WHALA! of course it ends up looking better after a few tries haha

and of course that less can be more, especially with thinks like wrinkles and folds, and if you’re scared to draw clothes over your figure get over it. You’ll draw a million better figures! dont hold yourself back

FOOD

  • Find your nearest food bank or mission, for food
  • grocery stores with free samples, bakeries + stores with day-old bread
  • different fast food outlets have cheaper food and will generally let you hang out for a while.
  • some dollar stores carry food like cans of beans or fruit

SHELTER

  • Sleeping at beaches during the day is a good way to avoid suspicion and harassment
  • sleep with your bag strapped to you, so someone can’t steal it
  • Some churches offer short term residence
  • Find your nearest homeless shelter
  • Look for places that are open to the public
  • A large dumpster near a wall can often be moved so that flipping up the lids creates an angled shelter to stay dry

HYGIENE

  • A membership to the YMCA is usually only 10$, which has a shower, and sometimes laundry machines and lockers.
  • Public libraries have bathrooms you can use
  • Dollar stores carry low-end soaps and deodorant etc.
  • Wet wipes are all purpose and a life saver
  • Local beaches, go for a quick swim
  • Some truck stops have showers you can pay for
  • Staying clean is the best way to prevent disease, and potentially get a job to get back on your feet
  • Pack 7 pairs of socks/undies, 2 outfits, and one hooded rain jacket

OTHER

  • first aid kit
  •  sunscreen
  •  a travel alarm clock or watch
  •  mylar emergency blanket

Hey, if you don’t mind sharing, I’ve always wondered how you got that soft celling look on your characters in your comic. Any tips? I’m currently working on my own comic and I kind of want to go for a less harsh form of cell shading. Thanks!

A couple people have asked about the way I color things and I’ve been meaning to post a tutorial on it :]. I’ve never been too good at describing my process, but I hope this helps!

Aha it is a big area I get it. But no, specifically short hairstyles. Like pixie cuts or more hairstyles that belong kind of exclusively to guys. (At least for me), it just doesn’t look like it adopts to layers or any rhyme or reason when its short

foervraengd:

Well a certain hairstyle doesn’t belong exclusively to guys because hair is hair.

But I guess you’re talking about the typical general western view of what hairstyles are more associated with guys.

My first advice is obviously to just google image for hairstyles on men and look for what most of the hairstyles have in common.

image

The typical “guy hairstyle” usually have the sides trimmed shorted to show the ears, and the longer hair on top are usually styled upwards to show the hairline p clearly.

Here’s a quick rushed step-by-step in how I’d draw this kind of hairstyle:

image

Really short hair and afro hair are easiest for me to draw if I focus on the overall shape/silhouette rather than looking for parted sections.

image

Here’s some more quick sketches that shows a bit longer hairstyles and how they’re styled to follow a certain direction.

Now this is all based on what I know about the typical “western straight hair guy hairstyle” but like this stuff varies a lot depending on where in the world you’re looking at. Hairstyles change a lot after trends and fashion after all.

I hope this was somewhat useful.
