Tips Improve Your Sketching

Above tip on how to improve your sketching.

This is a rough picture or drawing with the most important information on your topic. The purpose of the sketch is a brief look at how the elements of the layout of the page. Elements such as character actors, image design, lighting and
total color palette to name a few. Let us until the end ... should we?

 

1-Find your own style

Sketching is a personal thing. What works for one might not work for others. You can sketch with any medium. Lead, pastels, paint, conte sticks, etc. Some pencils can be described as “sketching pencils”. They have a harder lead  , requiring more effort to produce dark lines. Pretty handy if you’re trying to keep your lines nice and light.

2-Don’t be afraid of mistakes…that’s what sketching is for.

Sketching is experimental in nature. Making a mistake at the sketching stage of an illustration is better than noticing something wrong once the piece is completed.

3-Use basic shapes and quick lines to layout the broad details of the drawing.

This stage of your drawing is the perfect time to lay out a solid foundation to work from.

4-Keep your lines nice and light at first.

A lightly drawn line is easier to draw over (or erase) and allows more room for trial and error.

5-Know when to stop.

Keep sketching until it’s purpose has been served. If you were sketching to check a layout or to test out a color palette, once you have your answers, you should be ready to move on to the next step.
