Mientras pasa el tiempo ella crece y crece hasta llegar a ser gigantesca. Estoy tratando de encontrar una mejor técnica de colorear este mundo.Más o menos algo como esto? No sé …
perfect reaction gif for the result of anyone saying they like Alice in Wonderland within five miles of me (now I’m trying to guess which one of the Hatter and Hare is you and which is me)
okay I’ve had a lot of people asking this one and for hand tutorials and, well, I’m not much good at tutorials and I didn’t learn to draw them from a tutorial so it would feel a bit silly to make one tbh but this is the honest to god truth you can ask my mother she was witness to it and thought I was nuts because I spent two weeks over a summer holiday drawing nothing but hands every day
that’s… it
seriously
two weeks of nothing but hands
my parents are both doctors so we had various anatomy/dissection books scattered about the place and I knew I sucked at drawing hands but I wanted to be able to really badly, so I grabbed a bunch and sat and did studies of the skeletal structure, muscles, nerves, you name it. Really bad ones. Over and over and over, and even after that I wasn’t fab at drawing hands by any stretch but it helped me understand what they’re made of and how they work as mechanical objects- I mean god I know about the blood vessels in hands and I’ve never had to use that information practically but hell is it interesting to me.
The next step was just observing people and their hands (including myself, lots of drawings of my own left hand in my sketchbooks lemme tell u), and getting the body language down. You can’t draw a real thing purely from a dissected thing- take George Stubbs, fantastic horse artist, knew the anatomy literally inside out but some of the paintings he did just look kind of… wrong. Why? Because they look like a puppet of a horse that’s been meticulously arranged, that’s why. It is anatomically perfect, but not alive. You have to look at the living thing and how it moves and behaves to be able to draw it as a living thing. One thing I learned was that body language- especially in the world of hands- can be extremely personal as well as universal, so observe as much as you can in as many places as you can!
so yeah sorry it’s a very boring waffling answer but in summary I just kind of sat down and studied hands for a single ungodly length of time and kept going as a habit ever after. There are probably much better saner ways of doing it and I’m by no means an expert at drawing them- I’m still learning all the time! Try to find the way that’s right for you, there’s lots of cool guides out there, but in all honesty you’re only going to learn how to draw something by looking at the real deal and trying to figure out how it works, so go look!
A tour of the British Isles in accents: for those who would be tempted to mention “A British accent” and leave it at that.
…Smart to remember, too, that all these regions will have microregional variants. The Dublin accent referenced here, for example, is only one of at least five or six that I can identify, and I bet there are a lot more I’ve never heard or can’t tell from one another. Ditto for other regions in Ireland. The “Irish accent” as normally heard in US TV and film until quite recently has never been much more than an overstated, artficial “Dublin Stage” accent.
Equally, what most people in the US think of as “the British accent” beloved of movie villains everywhere is usually the so-called Received Pronunciation or RP, a kind of by-blow of the BBC’s refusal for a long time to allow its announcers to use anything but an approved version of the Home Counties “posh” accent. (This dialectic “glass wall” has finally started cracking in the last decade.)
