Let's start with a 2B-8B pencil, a charcoal pen or a charcoal stick. Paper, I personally think yellow sketch paper is better.

Learn to draw lines first, don't look at simple lines, but also draw with your heart. Drawing lines is skillful. Draw a short line with the strength of your wrist, and pay attention to the strength and softness of your wrist. Draw a long straight line with the strength of your elbow, not too close to the drawing board. By the way, it's more relaxed and natural to hold the pencil in the middle and back position.

After practicing the lines, you can practice modeling and start copying the template (usually plaster). If you copy an object, draw the shape of the object first, and pay attention to the symmetry. First look at whether the shape of the object belongs to a square, a rectangle or a circle, find out the center line, and then determine the shape. If you draw a group of objects, you must pay attention to their distance relationship and composition, which is generally the principle of triangular composition. The most important point of modeling is: remember the perspective relationship, the near is big and the far is small.

After mastering the shape, it is the timbre. We should grasp the three major faces and five major tones of black, white and gray. Pay attention to when adjusting children: near reality is far from virtual.

If you want to study hard, you'd better buy a model with painting steps on it. Or find a study class. If there are videos to watch online, it is mainly to practice. By the way, you can draw more sketches, which is very beneficial to improve your modeling ability. Copy more good works.

The following is a brief description of Still Life and Avatar respectively.

Pay attention to the following points when drawing still life:

1. Composition: Pay attention to the composition of a group of still life, see if it is a triangle or other forms of composition, and pay attention to the tightness when drafting.

2, modeling: pay attention to the perspective relationship, remember that the near is big and the far is small.

3, tone: the tone should remember that the near reality is far from virtual, and the lines are light and relaxed. First, spread out the big relationship and find the dividing line between light and dark. Black, white and gray are distinct, and five major colors are indispensable. Be sure to draw shadows and remember not to have too many gray faces. Pay attention to the outer edge of the shadow when drawing it, but pay attention to the reality. The tangent part of the object and the lining cloth is the most real, and the more it goes back, the more virtual it becomes. The middle of the shadow is bright because of the influence of environment and reflection, so you need to observe it carefully. If there are several fruits of the same kind in a group of still lives, we should pay attention to the relationship before and after when raising the tone. Tones will never be exactly the same, and shapes will be different. When the glass product bulges, pay attention to the heavy part and the bright part to show the texture.

4, in-depth characterization: in-depth characterization, pay attention to some small details, such as: altar mouth, bottle mouth, apple nest and so on. This is often overlooked. Pay attention to the description of details, and do not destroy the whole.

5. Adjustment: After the tone is laid, make overall adjustment, including objects and interlining. In this link, we must pay attention to the whole and not destroy it.

Remember, your picture (not squinting) is similar to that when you squint at a still life.

Attention should be paid to drawing portraits:

1, composition: the front space is larger than the back.

2, modeling: pay attention to perspective, near big and far small, near high and far low, near reality and far virtual.

3, tune: the front side of the head is separated, that is, find the dividing line between light and dark, from the front end of the temporal line to the outer edge of the orbit to the cheekbone to the masseter muscle to the chin, pay attention to the insertion of muscles. In addition to its inherent color, the heaviest part of the face is the bottom of the nose, and the gray tone of the face should not be too much. It is easier to draw hair in groups. Pay attention to the thickness of the hair itself, and the more it goes back, the weaker it becomes. The tone color of the neck should pay attention to the connection with the head and the insertion of muscles. Don't draw. It can be wiped with paper, pen or paper towel.

4. Adjustment: Depicting the five senses without destroying the big relationship. Be careful not to forget the description of the ear. Many students don't pay attention to their ears when drawing heads, thinking that the back of their ears is empty, but this is the place marked by the college entrance examination marking teacher, depending on your ability to portray and grasp reality.

Sketch. Remember, when you squint at a still life or a head, the relationship between light and shade is similar to that when you don't squint at your own work.

The above is purely personal experience, I hope it will be useful to you.

Finally, I wish you success! ! !
