ART – How to Draw a Consistent Character

I’m amazed by how often I get asked something like, “how can I draw my characters looking the same every times I draw them?”  I hadn’t realized it was a problem, but the subject kept coming up.

After one of my patrons and fellow artist Aaron D’Errico (who’s a great guy) asked me this question again, I thought I should just make a video.  In the video below, I tried giving some tips on measuring and comparing parts of the character so you can best see what makes them look the way they do.

I also suggest an exercise that can be done to get better at “seeing,”  and analyzing drawings.

I hope you find the video helpful:

ART -How to Ink with a Brush

Learning to ink, especially with a brush can be tricky.  I was asked by one of my Patreon patrons if I could go give an example of inking with one.

Using a brush is my favorite way to ink so, of course, I said yes.  The video below is what I recorded.

I had a blast. I hadn’t inked with an actual brush in a long time.  I usually use a brush pen. Usually one with synthetic bristles, so I this was a rare treat for me.

The character I’m inking is my character, Pen Grier, from TheDrawingWebsite.com.  I hope you enjoy:
