[muirkerith]

This is awesome, keep up the good work.

[carAMMAL101]

way good!!! luv it. but wat program did u use/ is that program free????/

[OtakuyaroDono]

@carAMMAL101 Radiant (vihena) has another neat video that answers some Q&A you might have, including that. But I can tell you, too. He uses SAI for lineart and photoshop CS5, if I'm not mistaken.

[OtakuyaroDono]

Awesome! What you did in the video seems kind of familiar to me from what I read in Andrew Loomis's guide on figure drawing. Did you, more or less, master/learn that book?

I noticed the scaling by heads at 2:14. Will you go into detail later about the body proportions?

[vihena]

@OtakuyaroDono ^_^ Andrew Loomis is indeed the master, but his principles are standard practice, so no I didn't learn through Loomis' guide.

I'll post a guide on scaling by heads on my site at some point in the future.

[OtakuyaroDono]

@vihena Oh, I see. I look forward to the guide. =]

[Onyxforce]

WOOH! you are alive!

[theflamepriestess]

She must be from some New Age Japanese High school :)

Anyway, wonderful work once again!!! I love how detailed the sketch is already. What brush settings do you use?? Because when I draw in photoshop, the lines for some reason come out more blocky or shaky than when I draw in Sai. :P

[KATT718]

you keep ajusting everything

i'm drawing this irl and it's hard when you draw something then you later change it >n<

[ENZO234258]

May I ask, what tool did you use at 1:39?  I think that tool can help me a lot instead of redrawing the entire part of my sketch... Thanks a bunch!

[vihena]

@ENZO234258 It's called the Warp function when you transform your selection.

[MangaPhilosophy]

what program do you use to record?

[isis2k2]

Pretty neat, seeing the whole process is always a nice experience.

Still, all I could think as the video went on was something like: Nooo! Don't twirl the box like that what if you drop it!! XD

[littomika]

This is so inspiring! I love watching how other people draw because there is always so much to learn :) Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! I absolutely love the style of her clothes! its soooo cuuuute :3 great job as always!!

[LittleMissStitches]

I'm glad to see another video from you. ^^ I really like how well you pay attention to detail, as well. :3

[kujiisz]

man you love Genki Rockets lol

thanks for the hardwork :D

[udsahn]

Very well done buddy! The detail is absolutely spectacular :). I also notice you using some structure lines in there for the arms and legs. Really cool! :D

I've been wondering 2 things, do you typically plan out your references before you draw or do you find them as drawing? And also, where do you find your fashion images for inspiration from? Just random searches?

Two thumbs WAY WAY up!! :D

[vihena]

@udsahn Thanks! Sometimes, the references are planned out, depending on if the client or myself have something in mind. If not, then I just draw! Sometimes, my posing is very spontaneous too - you'll notice I didn't have a full-body structure to start!

Yup! Random internet searches! :D

[TheRepublicPanda]

Okay I have one question how long have your been doing this cuz this is too pro

[vihena]

@TheRepublicPanda I've been doing this for... a long time! O_o; I feel old... ;)

[CatFaceProdduction]

woah! I was 28th to watch this only a second ago... and then when I refreshed the page... 43!!

you were right, StickFiguresCO... WOW

[vihena]

@CatFaceProdduction ^____^ I have a lot of subscribers. XD

[ElikChan]

Again, I learned something :3

Thanks alot!

[vihena]

@ElikChan You're welcome! thanks for your continued support! :D

[shadowkunai12]

Wow so much to learn from this video i've always wanted to draw by scratch like that *w* oh btw what a good size canvas to start for drawings?

[vihena]

@shadowkunai12 Thanks! :D The bigger the size your canvas, the better. Whatever your computer performance can afford! But if you're just starting out, a smaller canvas size is easier to control.
