Quick Note: Yeah.. its not perfect.. but its good for beginners.


Quite a few people have asked me to teach them how to draw. Well you know what? Im just too lazy for that.
And someone else said they didnt understand anatomy, porprortions, the whole "wth is 8 heads".. and the like.
So I got bored. Took a few screenshots and made a tutorial.
Theres your story.

This tutorial just shows how to use the 8 heads. You can also alter the method because A.) I dont remember how I learned it so I just winged it for the tut (lol xD). and b.) there are no RULES in art. Just like the pirates code. Theyre more like.. guidelines :D.

Things to accomplish:
-Learn how to get an about accurate hight and a width that doesnt look obese or about to snap its so thin.
-Learn how to actually map out the body, then draw details (instead of working head down.).
-Get an idea for the relative sizes and widths of certain areas of the body in relation to several other points at the same time.
-Learning how to draw normal, non mutated, non deformed people with the correct amount of fingers and arms the same length (lol).
-Some other stuff that Im too lazy to list.


There was too much freespace between the 5th and 6th paragraphs so I drew a picture d: its completely unrelated to the tutorial. xD

well. Good luck d:

One last note: To those actually USING this tutorial. You CAN alter the style and length/width of areas of the body. You just have to keep it Proportionate.

I love this! I have the worst time with body anatomy. Faces and clothing are no problem, but it's what those things are connected to is the problem! Thanks!
