Hi there!! First off thanks so much for spending all that time!!
To be honest I’m still trying to get comfortable with anatomy….however I do have a lot of fun making bendy torsos (thanks to Junkrat’s horrible posture) and I think I’ve stylized them enough to make a tutorial on them.
I almost always start my drawings with a C-curve/S-curve to mark the spine, this way I can exaggerate the torso as much as I like. Notice though that in the GIF the C-Curve isn’t actually where the spine is, it’s more of a way to feel the flow of the drawing.
So anyway yeah!!! I hope this helped in some way?? Sorry if it’s not extensive, I’m still learning a lot!! And thanks for the ask, I appreciate the love <3

So, you’re planning on drawing characters with certain undertones but you sure don’t want to make some racist yellowface/redface mess. This subject has been touched on a few times, but I figured I’d give my tips to digital artists out there.
Here’s another really quick tutorial from me:
Start with your base colour on a Normal layer.
Open a new layer ontop of it.
On that new layer, use a very pale yellow, orange, pink (or if you want a cool blueish undertone use a slightly purplish light pink) to cover your base skintone with.
Set that new layer to Multiply, and you’re done.
Note: Multiply layers make the colours of the layer underneath it darker, if you’re drawing someone super pale, mess around with an even lighter colour or change the opacity on the layer. Don’t change the layer to Screen or Luminosity, it’ll completely wash out your image.
The undertones in dark skin are a little richer in colour (in fact most yellow undertones in brown skin are more of a golden undertone), so you can make that Multiply colour that’s a darker pastel yellow or red or what have you.
You can also use this trick to show a blush on any skintone as well!
(Though, with blushing, you can’t really blush with dark skin, but if that’s what you want to go for anyways, this trick looks way more natural than random pink circles or lines on top)
And if you want more references on undertones on real people, beauty blogs man. They’re the way to go:

the suffering never ends
i wanted to update my VERY OLD nose tutorial now that ive learned how to draw! as always, this isn’t an all encompassing guide– just a jumping off point for practice@
do you have any tips for drawing a nose when the face is front facing?
This was really fast but I hope this helps:
Depending on the shape of the nose, the way you chose to render the contour lines will change. I used Rose, Quazky, and Glasner as examples in the lower right corner there. For TH, I generally don’t render the bottom of the nose with a line but with a shadow for simplicity’s sake. I hope that makes sense.
PS - I made a new brush for rendering technical drawings and I love it. *A*
More of an Arcana style guide to go with my colouring guide.
I tried to cover key aspects that make the style distinct so I hope this can be useful :D
OMG I found this video and it is a absolute goldmine! Its filmed by a Disney story board artist and they make drawing heads in any angle easy! now granted it takes practice to get this technique down but it soooooo helps.
The video below goes into deep details.
My last drawing tutorial was back in 2017, whoa, welp it looks like my drawing skills have gotten better. Since I have some more spare time, I will be doing new/updated art tutorials revisiting some of my previous topics.
I’ll post the tips publicly but my reference material and examples will be Patreon exclusive. If you like these tips and want to see more, support my Patreon! It allows me to focus on more material like this and I would really appreciate it .
