Description
A small tutorial (see some explanations at the bottom of this description) for my latest traditional mixed media drawing "Jack Sparrow (drawing)".I photographed the steps 1-11 with my Canon EOS 600D (EOS Rebel T3i) without flash. I'm sorry for the bad quality, but the light conditions were suboptimal. Step 12 is the scan.
Please don't upload my pictures somewhere else without my permission. Don't infringe copyright!
Here are some more detailed step by step tutorials/descriptions + the finished drawing:
These are the different tools I used for every step (and some side notes):
step 1: paper A4 (210x297mm, 190 g/m²), Faber-Castell pencil HB and set square + ruler + Faber-Castell pencel H3 (for the grid)
step 2: Faber-Castell Perfection 7056 (eraser pencil) to erase the grid lines
step 3: Faber-Castell pencil HB or Faber-Castell grip 1345 HB 0.5 for detailed line art
step 4: eraser, Faber-Castell Perfection 7056 to erase the outlines a bit
step 5: Copic Ciao and Sketch marker for the marker base layer (I would finish the marker base layer for other drawings first, but in this case I continued with the face, because it's easier to mess up a small face than to mess up the marker base layer)
step 6: Faber-Castell Polychromos artists' colour pencils (usually I start with black and sometimes white details when I draw with colored pencils)
step 7: Faber-Castell Polychromos artists' colour pencils, set square
step 8: Copic Ciao and Sketch marker (marker base layer)
step 9: Faber-Castell Polychromos artists' colour pencils (colored pencil layer, details)
step 10: uni-ball Signo pigment ink um-153 white for white highlights
step 11: Faber-Castell Polychromos artists' colour pencils (to define/scratch the white gel pen lines/points)
step 12: edited scan (a.k.a. destruction of contrast and colour)

... and I bought the wooden box with 120 Polychromos... That's even worse!
Thank you!

I wish I can have polychromos pencils.. so expensive here
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, they're expensive, but they're also really good. I bought my Polychromos many years ago. At first I bought just 60, because of the price... then it took me 2 years until I had all 120 Polychromos (I bought the single pencils).

That is incredible! I will never in my life be able to draw that realistic!

And this is where the magic happens - ich dachte, sowas hier hilft mir zu begreifen, wie du arbeitest - nope, ich kann's mir immer noch nicht vorstellen, es bleibt unbegreiflich XD

Ja...oder so ein Malvideo, die fin ich immer ganz gut. Einige Stellen kannst du dann ja "vorspulen" und ansonsten filmst du dich beim malen und erzählst ein bisschen was dazu, was du genau machst (oder blendest Schrift ein). Das wäre super, denke ich.

Solche Videos (aber eher als Zeitraffervideos) habe ich schon geplant. Da das aber relativ aufwändig ist, habe mir das als "Milestone Goal" bei Patreon gesetzt. Das wird wahrscheinlich noch Ewigkeiten dauern, bis ich meine Ziele erreiche!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, ok, gut
Vielleicht könntest du in das Video aber kurze Sequenzen in Echtzeit einbauen, damit man genau sieht, wie du arbeitest...diese komplett Zeitraffer-Videos sind mit oft zu schnell.
Dann muss ich ja doch zu Patreon, damn ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mal schauen!^^ Die Videos werde ich (im Gegensatz zu einigen Tutorials etc.) natürlich auf Youtube für alle frei zugänglich veröffentlichen. Patreon ist dann also nur dafür da, um die ganze Geschichte erst möglich zu machen (muss noch ein Programm kaufen... Lizenzen für Musik... Wissen aneignen... Kamerastativ kaufen... blabla).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Woah...da hängt echt ein Haufen Aufwand dran! Sogar Lizenzen für Musik musst du kaufen, wenn du deine Videos mit Musik unterlegen willst?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wenn das Ganze legal ablaufen soll, dann muss ich schon bei den ganzen Firmen nachfragen oder versuchen Lizenzen zu kaufen. Ansonsten besteht immer die Gefahr, dass Youtube die Videos aufgrund von Copyrightverletzungen sperrt. Außerdem will ich nicht unbedingt (gratis) 08/15 Musik nehmen, sondern irgendeine epische Trailermusik (manche Firmen bieten für Youtube manchmal auch Gratiszeugs an... damit muss ich mich dann beschäftigen). 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, ja - da ist es besser, auf der sicheren Seite zu sein! Und coole Musik macht auf jeden Fall was her.
Und eigene Musik wäre natürlich der Oberknaller

Awesome Sauce!!! Thank you. For step 5, you saying it's best to finish the face (start details etc) here so you won't mess up later? Just wanting to understand. I am HORRIBLE with people. Give me any animal or inanimate object, and I'm magnific. Give me a person... they all end up looking like Yoda! lol

Thank you very much!
I depends on the picture. In this drawing his face is just very small, so it's much more difficult to match the likeness and because of that easier to mess something up. Once I've messed up a face (erased too much and destroyed the paper)... Then I had to trash the drawing after 8 hours and draw everything again. If I had started with the face I would've saved some hours. For normal portraits I finish the marker base completely, because in this case it's more likely to mess up the marker base (mistakes can't be erased!) and easier to correct mistakes in the face.

You are an amazing artist. Keep up the wonderful job!!

Very helpful! Thank you so much! It takes me forever to get smooth skin. Now I know a bit more about what to do to speed things up. You are a talented artist and a treasure to others who are trying to learn. Please keep going forever ad ever.
Oh, and I hate to do this but my mom used to be a talented artist until she lost her eyesight. She's raising money to help find a cure and no one is donating and the deadline is the 26th, so I was wondering if you maybe might mention it? As artists, our eyes are our life! I feel bad for the plug, but finding a cure could impact all our lives. Here is the link:

I apologize sincerely if you dislike this, I completely understand. I've just run out of people to ask in-person and going door-to-door earned $15 after 4 hours. I don't know what else to do. I'm so sorry.

You're welcome! Thank you!
I'm sorry, but I don't have money for a donation. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No worries about not having any money, just wondering if you might spread the word. It's okay either way though.

I found myself lost at the fourth step.

Yay! Thanks for making this, I'm sure I will pick up some new tips
I see you use grid as well, that makes me feel better because I do it too, it saves time and always looks way better
I'm all about the colour, I hate the sketch part! (personally speaking).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're welcome! Thank you!
Yes, the grid method really saves time. And I'm also always afraid that I mess something up and discover it after 8 hours while colouring (when I don't use the grid). I admit that I prefer colouring, so I just use the grid although I could do it without it. But sometimes it's also king of freeing to draw something without the grid (for example sketches).
