STEP:1 Let’s get used to lines 2

2

You don’t draw some kind of character suddenly. 3

3

It's very simple or 4

4

a basic story. 5

5

In drawing pictures, 6

6

Whether you can draw a proper line, that's the most important thing 7

7

Because it is the very basics 8

8

So at first 9

9

It might be a little boring, but 10

10

let's study this part thoroughly. 11

11

So, I'm talking about drawing a clean line. 12

12

Why do we have to do that in the first place? 13

13

Why is it important? 14

14

I wrote here “Important!” It's really important. 15

15

I will explain it on this page so that you all understand 16

16

Therefore 17

17

Left and right 18

18

Something looks like a character's head. 19

19

First of all, they're both actually drafts. Both left and right. 20

20

Left one has a little clean lines. 21

21

What? Is it a draft? You might think, 22

22

It's still a draft. 23

23

Around here, lines are not connected. It's sticking out or dirty. 24

24

On top of that 25

25

The one on the left is prettier. The one on the right is a little dirtier. 26

26

You might think so. 27

27

The one on the right side, 28

28

Actually, it took about three times as long to draw. 29

29

Furthermore, at the time of drafting The one on the right takes three times as long 30

30

The left one took one-third of the time 31

31

But it already looks prettier on the left. So, fast and clean. 32

32

This the difference between whether or not you can draw clean lines 33

33

To aim for this you desperately need clean lines. 34

34

There is a big difference 35

35

The lines are shaky on the right side 36

36

shaky 37

37

It's true 38

38

There may be more explanation about this later. 39

39

You might often do this Draw quickly like this 40

40

Especially if you use a thin mechanical pencil or a hard pencil, it cannot be helped but get this kind of touch. 41

41

In the world of illustration, this is generally considered to be a bad thing 42

42

Let's start by correcting this. 43

43

So practice from there 44

44

It's a frequently asked question 45

45

Why does a good illustrator draw beautifully at the time of drafting? 46

46

That's the kind of question I am asked. 47

47

When I draw it, it won't be beautiful at all, you might think. 48

48

It's due to this. 49

49

It is beautiful if there is one line 50

50

One shot to the ideal place It's like being able to draw in one stroke. 51

51

Yes 52

52

Over and over again, again and again... If you do it this way 53

53

Lines are inevitably dubbed 54

54

It gets dirty. 55

55

In fact, I think you can understand this somehow. Here is choppy 56

56

From here to here I'm pulling it all at once, like this. 57

57

This way You're pulling it right away. 58

58

But where it sticks out, It sticks out. 59

59

When you get used to it, you can easily draw like this 60

60

Then, they will be connected by a single line. And it becomes clean. 61

61

And to pull it from here to here, it takes less than a second. 62

62

For this one, lines are dubbed. 63

63

Just to draw from here to here, it takes about 5 seconds 64

64

This way, like this. 65

65

But if you're not used to it, 66

66

You draw it like, finding the right part in a lot of drawings 67

67

That's right. 68

68

That's why it takes so long. 69

69

And that's why it gets dirty. 70

70

Therefore 71

71

Let's draw a clean line 72

72

Next, the headline says 73

73

Draw lines freely with pen pressure in mind! 74

74

In fact, we're going to do it. 75

75

I think some people prefer digital, others prefer paper and pencil, analog style 76

76

This time, I use CLIP STUDIO 77

77

I'm using a pen called G-pen for CLIP STUDIO software. 78

78

For analog style, you will do it with other art materials 79

79

I'd like to start at the top. 80

80

I have this screen size 81

81

It's a digital-specific way of saying. It says A4 resolution 200. 82

82

This is what is important 83

83

It's 1500px 84

84

The bigger this is, the better the image quality, high resolution 85

85

The lower this is, the poorer the image quality. 86

86

Why 1500 here? 87

87

The bigger it is, the prettier, But that makes your computer slow. 88

88

Such troubles are likely to occur 89

89

Therefore 90

90

To work comfortably, the smaller the better. 91

91

If it's too small it's like a mosaic. 92

92

And you don't know what you're drawing 93

93

Then, with 1500, 94

94

It's small, but it's barely enough 95

95

The value around this is proper for drawing comfortably without being like a mosaic 96

96

This time, I chose this value. 97

97

Also, in the case of analog style, 98

98

Honestly, in the beginning, it's good to use what you have at hand. 99

99

Notebook or copy paper 100

100

Popular copy paper is about the size of A4. 101

101

210 mm × 297 mm Around 20 to 30 cm in length and width 102

102

B5 is popular for notebooks, so it's a little smaller than that. 103

103

You can do with such familiar size 104

104

Is pure white paper better? 105

105

Is it okay to have a ruled line? 106

106

It would be better if it could be pure white 107

107

If you don’t have one, it is okay to have ruled lines. 108

108

In that sense, 109

109

Copy paper is really inexpensive, I think it is quite suitable for practice. 110

110

I mentioned a little bit earlier. 111

111

I have CLIP STUDIO’s G-pen. 112

112

For analog style, with pencils, around 2B 113

113

You know scale like H? 114

114

Pencils with some B’s are pretty soft. 115

115

H or HB is a slightly stiff pencil 116

116

Softer is better I think it's good to practice at first. 117

117

Also, I wrote here, a brush pen. 118

118

For analog style, when you look at the sample like the one on the left 119

119

This is the line drawn in CLIP STUDIO. It’s not possible to draw this line in analog style. 120

120

With a brush pen, you get a line like this. 121

121

So, in that sense, 122

122

If you are interested, I thought it would be interesting to draw with it. 123

123

Also, as popular writing utensils, I think the most common one is a mechanical pencil. 124

124

If you want to draw with a mechanical pencil, I think a slightly thicker lead is better 125

125

Normally, it's about 0.5. 126

126

If it's 0.7 mm or thicker, it's a little like a pencil. 127

127

It will be easier to draw a big line 128

128

Conversely, when it becomes thin 0.3 or something 129

129

Precise lines are easy to draw, but 130

130

It will be difficult to draw a big flowing line. 131

131

In that sense it's nice to have a thick and soft lead. 132

132

It's good for practice. 133

133

And in the headline 134

134

It says Draw lines freely with pen pressure in mind! 135

135

If you are aware of pen pressure here 136

136

It will be a free and soft line. 137

137

It's not these hard, shrunken lines. 138

138

While it's very important to draw a bold line, 139

139

when you draw that bold line 140

140

I'm going to go with black. 141

141

If you are able to handle pen pressure freely, lines tend to look really nice. 142

142

If you don't have much control over pen pressure, lines will be stiff, 143

143

telling that you are not used to it. Lines will look awkward. 144

144

In that sense, 145

145

Whether you can handle pen pressure freely, it's like an indicator whether lines are drawn freely. 146

146

It will be something like that 147

147

So, why not be a little more conscious of pen pressure? 148

148

That’s why I put this theme 149

149

However, pen pressure naturally varies from person to person. 150

150

So, this is just my pen pressure. 151

151

For example, this time 152

152

A common question is the size of a pen. How large is it? 153

153

I draw this at about 30 pt. I get a line like this right now 154

154

Well, just because I use 30, if you do it at 30, will it be the same line? 155

155

Actually, not necessarily. 156

156

Of course, if you have weak pen pressure, for example, you might end up with a line like this. 157

157

If it's thicker, it will be thicker. 158

158

Because it has a variety of settings 159

159

I'm doing it at 30 pt now, but 160

160

I recommend to use a pen that will be like this. 161

161

Then we each need to adjust the size of the pen ourselves 162

162

Yes, It would be better to do so 163

163

In fact, there are surprising differences in pen pressure depending on the person. 164

164

After this, we will do these things. 165

165

Below is a section with frequently asked questions. 166

166

It will also appear on the slides here and there. 167

167

This corresponds to the content of the part of this slide 168

168

Frequently asked questions As the name suggests, from the students 169

169

It's from Palmie students. 170

170

Yes 171

171

We have summarized the frequently asked questions. Please enjoy this as well 172

172

So then, if this is the first time you draw 173

173

Do you draw with your hands away from the paper or tablet? It's a very simple question. 174

174

My answer is also very simple. Stick it. 175

175

If you draw with your hands apart, the axis is not stable. 176

176

Lines will probably be fluffy, unstable ones. 177

177

Definitely stick it together. It is better to draw with the axis fixed properly 178

178

It's the same as when you write. 179

179

When using a pencil, mechanical pencil, or digital pen, basically, stick your hand on paper. 180

180

That's how it is. Let's continue to draw.
