Sorry I’ve been afk for a while
I shared this link a long time ago in my plurk and I’m going to share it now. Since I have so few followers I don’t care.
That blog has hundreds of How to Draw books and art related stuff from software to artbooks. You can find some RARE gems there and some great highly renowned books like Andrew Loomis and Richard Williams’s The Animator’s Survival Kit.
Edit: Fixed the link lol, if it’s still not working just copy/paste http://eddiesekiguchi.blogspot.pt/ on your browser.

My comic project Scion of the Veil is finally ready to be shared. I hope you will enjoy what’s online right now, and every next friday there will be a new page untill I run out of finished pages! [hopefully not too soon]
If you are familiar with my work, you will have an idea what to expect from this story. I would describe it as an “erotic fantasy romance comedy drama” :P expect lots of shirtless horned men, monsters and purple, lots and lots of purple. And also porn, because that’s just how I roll. I’m very excited to keep working on it, and hopefully entertain a few people along the way.I’d really appreciate a reblog if you like what you see!

The wonderful ballroomnotoriety replied to my previous question about horses with the suggestion for this book and this advice:
” Look into “How to Draw Animals” by Jack Hamm. It is the best resource I’ve ever found. Also, try to visit some actual horses and pet them—horses have lots of weird knobs and joints and things that are hard to visualize without first seeing them irl.”

okay guys someone the other day asked for a bow tutorial so here it is! :> I hope it is helpful.
It’s not exactly the most precise archery information but I included what was relevant in terms of actually drawing—and remember as always, references are great in addition to looking through tutorials
am I even qualified enough to make a tutorial? oh well it was funTumblr made them weeny but the magnifying glass will take you to full view
OR
As an ex-archer, I can confirm these are reliable notes!
very good resources yes
saves for future use

- WARNING! BIG FILE ON MY DA PAGE TO DOWNLOAD AND ENJOY!
I decided to draw up some tips for drawing girls, since I _think_ I know what I’m doing with them. A lot of peeps have asked for them, so here’s a bit. Will have a male one when I get really confident with the dudes (which i’m progressing nicely in that area), but for now, this will suffice.
Let me know if there are any questions you have or anything else you’d like me to show you that’s reasonable. But just remember that you have to learn and study for yourself to get the idea.
REMEMBER, PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE STUDY RESEARCH PRACTICE!
Other Tips:
- Using shapes for your gestures beats stick figure methods! Read this: [link]
- Draw constantly. Don’t look at what you’re working on, and study it! Learn why certain things connect the way they do, what muscles get tense in a position and relaxed, etc. Don’t just draw what you see.
- Come up with your own visual cues to help you “see” how a form works, like the McDonald’s Arches and Megaman Boot. You’d be surprised how easy it is for you to remember how something looks!
- With women, remember, dainty and curvy lines beats hard edgy lines! No matter the size of woman’s breasts or hips or proportions, these things always apply best: Hands with less lines, thinner fingers and smaller feet. Using line minimally also bumps femininity up if you’re not confident with what you’re doing yet. And curves always! Even on the straightest line, make it a bit curvy.Hey guys! Save this! It’s crazy useful =D
Oh damn this is excellent. Female bodies are SO NICE TO DRAW weh
