Description Someone asked me a while ago how I draw, and I needed to warm up somehow, so I made a quick speed-drawing of Atem. You can find it here . The quality isn't top-notch, and neither is the anatomy, but it's not catastrophical either so meh  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

I draw pretty much everything like this. And yes, every character starts off completely naked, I add clothes later. Sometimes, they stay naked, lol. I rarely skip drawing genitals either but ssscchhhh that's a secret!!
I enjoy drawing this prettyboy way too much, that's for sure   


Tools I'm using: Regular blue colour pencil, 0.5 & 0.3 mechanical pencils, eraser pen, and lighting table

Time: around 30 minutes

Song: "Morning Light" by Arashi

OK, this is awesome. I always knew about this style, but I never knew all the steps involved. Looks like something that would make my works much cleaner. However. I love my style and the leaps I am making to not need that. Great tutorial though! Very impressed!

Wowie woah, thank you! My way certainly isn't the right and only way, that concept is a myth that doesn't exist Everyone needs to find what works for them and keep on to it, although keep an open mind to other

Certainly not the only way. You have made some improvements yourself if your meme is anything to go by. I plan on commenting on that soon! ^^

wow!!! you need make more speeddraw!! if you continue like that you will have very subscribers

of my drawings i made after with markers (because its more realist) if i was to make a simple full body drawing. i will take 8 hours (for all details its 1 day), you know "need patient if you want to made exactly like your imagination" . And for the art i made of my profile image i just take 5 minutes. sorry if i wrote all of this. Sometimes i like say somes informations of me too (of how i draw) hope you don't mind.

by the way, its a fantastic drawing

Hahaha I should get better recording equipment for that but thank you! 

Oh, I certainly don't mind! I think it's superinteresting to know how other people draw and what materials they use! And damn if I can relate to the patience thing! I'm not that good with that, most of my sketches end up as messy scribbles that I never do anything serious about and just feel like throwing away. I usually don't clock myself when drawing/painting something, but it can take quite some time before I get it right! Especially when painting digitally   

I remember a fanart piece I made for one of my favorite fanfics that I struggled with for an entire week and after I was done, I just wanted to erase the damn thing, I hated it so much. But I posted it anyway, and two weeks later, it didn't look that bad. Hm, perhaps I should upload it here as well, I have so many things on my tumblr blog lol!

Aaaw, thank you

No problem but I see now what you can do in somes minutes too it's very good because that means it's a great level you have for drawing and how you draw too. Because in somes minutes you can do a full body right??

A polished sketch of a full body like that takes me around 40 minutes yes, unless it's a more complex pose of course. Those can take at least one and a half hour, sketching alone, and even more if there's more than one person on the pic -w-;;;;

This looks so fluent and easy when you draw It's awesome! When I start drawing the best I could do is a stick figure ^^' But I do want I lightning table too - its super useful for pretty everything!
I really like your style ♥ I hope to see more soon ^-^

Wowie, thank you! I bet it's the playback speed that gives that impression, I think it's nothing but clumsy and slow, but we're always our biggest critic so I shouldn't talk too much  

Lighting tables are so useful it's insane! I definitely recommend getting one! They can be quite cheap to buy or build

I'll probably do more speed drawings/paintings in the future, it was kinda fun! Thank you
