Wacom's online seminar "Winter Pentab Special Course", Lecturer on the first day
Introducing how to draw rough and your favorite brush
Airo -san, a popular illustrator, is a popular mini -character making video distributed on YouTube.In the online seminar, using the LCD pen tablet (hereinafter referred to as the liquid tab) "WACOM ONE LCD pen tablet 13", which is popular among illustrators and manga artists, it will be easy to understand from the concept of rough to completion of the illustration.did.
By the way, at the beginning of the online course, the person in charge of Wacom introduced that a combination of Google's Chromebook (Chrome Book) + Wacom's Wacom Intuos is on sale on Amazon."Actually, the illustrations used in the advertisement are Airo -san's work."
First, start from the rough.The software used by Airooma is "CLIP STUDIO PAINT" (hereinafter, Crysta).I will draw a line drawing on a pure white campus.The brush is "Petpen" that can be downloaded from the material distribution site "CLIP STUDIO ASETS".
"Petpen is a texture between the pencil and a pen. If you draw quickly, the lines will be thinner, and if you draw them late, it will be thicker.I draw everything with this. "
In the order of drawing the rough of Airo's rough, the head of the head is drawn, then draws the character A, and decides the base of the foot.At first, I will explain the image of the illustration with the nuance of the foot, and I will explain the deformation method unique to a mini -character two -class mini character, such as omitting my waist and drawing my arms later.
On this day, I put the Chromebook on my desk and decided on the composition with Hi-UNI Digital for Wacom in my hand.While chatting, we will happily consider this and composition.
"The rough is always rough. I draw with momentum and courage. I want to draw a pen first, and I will grow my hands and arms later."
Here, the viewers commented, "I always watch posted videos," and "The clothes are cute and helpful."When asked about the position of the eyes, he replied, "When the body is low, it is better to draw a little lower than the middle of the face. If you shorten the distance to your eyes and chin, you will be cute and young."。
Mini characters express their personality with "mouth" and answer illustrations.
At the time of a mini character, the most important thing that Airo Ma is is the "mouth".
"You can see the character of the character in your mouth.Because it is a mini character, the expression of the mouth is important. "
When asked by the viewer, "What should I do when I can't think of a picture composition?"I can use it later. "
Occasionally, he said that he sometimes put a lines on the screen and get a "posing from accidental" that connects the lines that can be used.
For a voice saying, "What you want to draw and what you draw is different.""I know it's amazing. I was drawing a good -looking guy, but that's it. But I think it's something that can be improved by painting and completing it.I will try to complete it. Then, compare it with the picture of the target person and organize the different points. While taking notes, "Is your eyes too big?" "
When you look back at past notes, you'll notice that you tend to be worried in such a place."If you draw your own good points, you will be more and more fond of your paintings. It will become a greasy personality," he said.
He said, "It's a cute hand drawn in the mini -character, but I don't dare to draw a joint. It's like cream bread."
Regarding the length of the arm, "It's an eternal theme. I draw with an image that my fingertips come to the base of my feet when I stretch it down.Then ".He advised that it should be drawn to connect two empty cans from the shoulders to the elbow and the elbow to the wrist.
By the way, when the length of the arm is uncomfortable, it is said that the length is rose and check the length.
"When there was no money to buy a doll (to pose), I drew a doll on paper, cut it and check it together. It was an analog story, but this work is digital.You can "(Airo Ma)
He also preserved "one of the miracles that he could draw well", and later analyzed as "I was drawing at this ratio" and "Length and position were like this."
It is often the case that everyday pen is done from the eyes, and then the body and hair are often the last finish.I will continue to use Petpen of "Slimy drawing comfort" (Airoma).
The viewer's worries that the size of the eyes will change is, "It is also a hand to draw with a different eye from the one you are drawing. If you can draw well, draw the guide wire.It may be good to match the size of both eyes. "
Regarding the design of clothes, "I don't have much opportunity to see men's clothes, but I go to a department store, see the clothes, input it, and draw while returning home. I remember it.I'm drawing the part that I liked here with my head. "
Which should be used, plate tab or pen tab?
Here, in digital drawing, it is a topic of "a plate tab or a liquid tab, which one?"Arooma uses a board tab from the drawing debut to a certain time, and it is said that the liquid tab "Wacom CintiQ 16" cannot be released.
After talking about his own experience, he said, "Recently, the number of people who painted with a smartphone have started in earnest. For those people, we recommend that a liquid tab is fine from the beginning."Regarding the WACOM ONE LCD pen tablet 13 used to create this illustration, he commented, "It is a product that I had enjoyed at a consumer electronics retailer.
The question of which size to choose the product is, "I think it's a good idea to actually touch it, shake your arms and draw a picture. If the screen is smaller, I like it without blurring when drawing.Sometimes. "The Wacom representative introduced, "There is a Wacom brand store Shinjuku in Shinjuku Marui Annex (Marui Department Store). Sit slowly and try the product."
Mr. Airo Ms. Aroma says that the hair is lined up with a gentle curve, considering the position of the whirlpool and drawing a onion skin.The volume of the hair tends to increase, so it is good to draw the outside contour first.He says, "Let's be aware of variations and cohesive, as if you are going down as you go down.
After a line drawing, from here to paint.Start painting from the one that the character is in the bottom, and apply it to the protruding.The idea is that by applying the jacket later, the protruding part can be erased.
During the drawing, Celsis's "CLIP STUDIO TABMATE" (Clip Studio Tabmate) was holding on the left hand of Arooma.He said that he could do everything with his left hand, such as the screen enlargement and the return of the work, and he said, "I can't paint without this" (Airo Ms.).
In fact, it was recently that I thought I would be an illustrator.He continued to draw on his self -taught, posted a video on YouTube for about two years, and eventually wanted to do an illustration that he had enjoyed in one hand as a job.
"Now, various people are posting how to draw illustrations on YouTube. I'm full of thanks. I have a thing I am talking about."
Use the scheduled time to fully use the illustration while showing many tips.He recalled the drawing live, "It was a very fast. It was so fun."
