Description
...::EDIT::...Larger and edited file on request.
Several people were complaining about the small font. Leaving critiques and comments are more than welcome, but I just don't like it when people use my tutorials and at the same time nitpick about the smallest things and don't even leave a "thank you" note.
So for those who do appreciate the 30 hours I spent in writing and drawing this tutorial: I uploaded a larger file. You can click download for full size.
...Whoa...
This is a MASSIVE tutorial I did in only 2 freakin' days! LOL.
I said I would do a gift for you all because someone hit the 60.000 pageviews. Besides, I got over 1550 watchers and my drawings of Vincent and House got over 1000 favourites.
Ooohh look at the pretty colors. My previous tutorials look quite boring compared to this baby.
Ehm... what else to say...
Have fun!

Tortillions cannot be reused except for smudged areas.
However, blendingsticks can be used more often if you sharpen them with a pencil sharpener or sandpaper!!

kl, i just wondered because i learned how to do it before i dropped art [for some reason] and its kl that it wasnt some useless technique they shoved under our noses

Even though your school might say they give the right techniques, it doesn't mean it's the easiest way. There are so many drawing techniques, and I came up with this way of blending myself
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
are you going to lecture me on how practice wil get me my own techniques??
my school is pathetic, i hate it, the art teachers do not teach they give criteria and concentrate on theory more than any kind of art
theory theory theory, argh..anyway im sure you dont want to hear me moan, so..
