How to Draw Anime/Manga + Colour Skin

So yeah....I'm not much of an artist so it may not be too wise to try and learn from me. I'm always open to constructive criticism ^__^ and any questions are welcome. I didn't pay too attetion to the shoulders/body since the focus is the head....annnnd, I'm sorry that I didnt finish colouring. xD! I ended up getting too lazy. :3

Possible answers: I used Prismacolour Pencil Crayons. They cost a lot :[
- The pen I used is a Sakura Micron. It's waterproof and it doesn't bleed.

that was great! i've been searching for something like this so i can learn how to color. i'm not a bad artist... but i suck at coloring D; if it doesn't trouble you, would you mind making a slowed-down, step-by-step version? x3

[MoonlitTiger]

I could try ^^

[stopmotionbros98]

are the pencils u used for the skin the same as prismacolour watercolor pencils? great drawing!!!!

[MoonlitTiger]

Hm? xD I'm not sure what you're asking but they're not watercolour pencils. They're just normal prismacolor pencils :3

Dang! you are really good! (im about to bombard you with questions btw) how long have you been drawing anime? ive only been drawing 11 months X__X

I use sakura microns too they work great...and a question what makes prismacolor colored pencils so different from regular colrored pencils? ive been thinking of getting a set but i usually just use copic markers

1. I've been drawing anime since I was in grade 5, and now I'm in grade 10. LOL But you wouldn't recognize what I drew in grade 5 as anime..its more like scribbles. I started getting serious (as in actually practicing a lot) starting...grade 8 ish? xD But even then it was bad.

2. Well Prismacolored pencils are a lot softer and smoother, so they blend it better. I've found that normal ones, like crayola, are really rigid and it ends up looking messy and unblended.

[MoonlitTiger]

Though I can still do DECENT work with crayolas...but afterwards, I use a white pencil crayon (or a "colourles pencil", which you can get at an art store) to blend ti all :3.

How to animate anime:

1. Draw large mouth

2. Draw small mouth

3. Put both together.

I always wondered, but how do you avoid smudging the micron pen when you colour near it?

cause I noticed that when I colour with prismas they smudge the lining when I get near it.

the vedio is so great! i don't know drawing at all, but i like anime and colouring anime. after watching this vedio, i have get some ieda about how to colour skin, i know that colour skin needs to use different colours.

Could you show me the name of the colours and the order? i am not very sure what colur you have been use.

And what brand of colour pencils you are using?

[dethbrush]
