After the copying period, you have a certain understanding of illustration, and you can choose to sign up for an illustration training class. Under the guidance of teachers, people with poor self-control ability can also get higher learning efficiency. At this stage, they can learn theory and practice, have a deeper understanding of illustration, and start to output some better works.

Introduction of hand-drawn illustrations The introduction of hand-drawn illustrations is as follows:

The foundation of hand-drawn illustration: Sketch foundation is the stepping stone and cornerstone of all art and painting. I started as a sketch student. If they have a good sketch foundation, they can draw, create and express smoothly. Four basic sketches: black, white and gray proportion, sense of volume, sense of space and sketch practice. Copying is a shortcut, but copying should not be described blindly, but should be interpreted and described in combination with knowledge structure.

Painting steps: handle the relationship between black, white and gray in the whole picture. Create a sense of volume, pay attention to the relationship between emptiness and emptiness, adjust the relationship between emptiness and emptiness, and pay attention to the objects in front.

Scientific hand-drawn illustration training methods: first, sketch, a large number of sketch exercises, enhance their muscle memory, exercise observation ability; Secondly, the cartoon line drawing turns the line drawing into the instinct of the hand, so that the hand can be drawn before the brain reacts, so that the line will pass; Finally, watercolor practice, watercolor can exercise our color matching ability and enhance color sense, which will be of great help to the drawing of hand-drawn illustrations in the later period.

Key points of hand-drawn illustration: If we don't have a thorough understanding of the human body structure when drawing characters, it may be ok to keep an action, but once we want to draw the human body dynamics, the structure of the characters may be deformed, so we should practice the human body of the characters.

We can grasp the structure of the human body by sketching. First of all, according to the figure painting, draw different angles and grasp the key frames. After mastering it, you can try to draw different movements yourself, increase the difficulty of practice and try to understand the human body thoroughly. Learning hand-drawn illustrations must keep a normal mind.
