As a self-taught artist, now is the time to share what I have learned in making my arts especially in coloring sessions (blending).

This anime character is one my favorite. -Dabi

MATERIALS:
  • sketch pad
  • color pencil

STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE:

1- Sketch the subject in grid lines.

These grid lines is good for trainee artists because it makes you concentrate more on the lines for positioning your drawing.

2- Hair color; choose the perfect shade.

3- body; work for detail by detail.

Use darker shade for shadows to give a realistic effect for progress.

After the subject, time to focus on galaxy effect.

Just continue until the galaxy effect will be finally echieved.

And here is the final output. I like how the color goes well. It took me a long time to finish yet it wasn't that complicated because I'm enjoying the blending of colors for the background.

Time and effort is all worth it!
