Description
Feel that your drawings are stagnating? Maybe there's something missing? For those struggling with their styles and finding inspiration, this might be the thing for you!---
This tut was in limbo for several weeks/months because I wasn't too sure of the direction it was taking, writing-wise. Anywho, for some background about this tut: I like experimenting with different drawing styles and I've been doing it for a couple of years now. I then realized that I should make a tutorial about it and how it can improve the quality of your drawings.

this helped me much more then i expected.since i had noone really artistic in my family i just assumed the only way to get a art style was to just draw something and then that was your style and you had to live with it but mu issues were that i couldn’t draw hands feet or a face so it leaves my drawings looking half finished so im basically saying thank you for some actual advice on how to draw for people like me who don’t know what they’re doing.

people are starting to say I have a style but I hate my current style I really don't like how I draw right now I hope I can step away from my current style and try to experiment around more /:

I love your tutorials, they are very helpful!
Quick question, do you have any advice for drawing in different perspectives and angles? That is seriously something I cannot do without severely messing up the anatomy/proportions/and style of my characters or whatever is being drawn.

Hey glad you love them!
Being consistent with drawing at different angles can be pretty difficult. As with any other hard thing, it becomes easier with practice. Try drawing from reference. Find a 3D model of a head, rotate it, and try to draw every rotation. It also helps to breakdown whatever you're drawing into simple shapes and forms (cubes, balls, cylinders, etc.)
Best of luck!

This is a fantastic tutorial with a lot of great information! However, I want to make a slight but important correction. Sachin Teng is a woman, I have met her.

Oh boy, how embarrassing. I'll fix that up in a bit. Thanks for pointing that out! I've always wanted to meet her!

That is very true. I'm right now at the point where I badly need to study anatomy to further enhance what bases I have. Doesn't mean you can't build a style without those bases, but they sure will help get the most out of yourself.

Here's another bit of advice I learned on developing my own style: try copying others', then keep screwing up on it and voila!

LOL this is very true as sad as that might sound, I think sometimes merging your favorite parts of multiple styles then pulling it together into your own style with your own special bits really makes a difference and once you get used to smoothly using that style its just really YOUR style and thats what makes it so unique! <3
