You can also learn this fashionable stick figure.

After retirement, I want to find my hobby. My old classmates recommended me to study freehand brushwork in ink painting in the university for the aged, but I have never made up my mind to learn it, because I think it is too much trouble to need pen and ink every time. I prefer stick figures that can be drawn anytime and anywhere with a pen and a piece of paper.

So I went to the little red book to find the stick figure. As a result, I found the work of Japanese fashion illustrator Chang Xiong. He just took a black ink pen and drew many life scenes of today's characters with the simplest lines, which was simple, low-key and fashionable. This is exactly what I like best.

I began to pay attention to those teaching videos that draw long-distance illustrations, and found that it is good to copy from the beginning, and there is no need for sketching skills, which is exactly what I want.

Just do this, immediately pick up the fountain pen and start copying. At first, I drew on paper, but I found that I couldn't draw straight lines and crooked curves, and I wouldn't modify them. I kept redrawing them, which was time-consuming and paper-consuming, and I was very depressed.

Seeing that the video teaching has been drawn on the Ipad, I can modify it at any time. I happen to have an Ipad and an Ipad pen at home, so I made up my mind to spend 68 yuan to buy reproductive software and start copying it on the Ipad.

First of all, you need to learn the basic functions of fertility software. You can find teaching videos on Xiaohongshu or Baidu. I took a photo of nagatacho's painting found on the Internet, pasted it on one side of the canvas, and then began to copy it on the other side.

It is suggested to draw a general frame with a pencil brush first, so as to ensure that the proportion of head, body and legs is appropriate; Then, on the basis of the framework, it officially began to learn from it. Procreate software is very powerful, you can choose different brushes and brush thicknesses and depths; With the shortcut key, double-click to erase the previously drawn line; It's so convenient that you can fill in large pieces of color directly. Because it can be modified at any time, you can quickly copy a satisfactory work, and then compare it to see where it is different. You can also erase some parts and repaint them, which is super fulfilling.

In the process of painting, you will also find some problems that are not mentioned in the teaching video, such as why some colors can't be filled? How to make one end of the line thinner? How to move a drawn picture on the canvas? At this time, I will go to Baidu to enter these questions, and Du Niang will tell you the answer.

According to the suggestion of video teaching, the first step is to copy according to the ready-made pictures, the main purpose is to accumulate and know how to draw characters in different scenes; Step 2, draw according to real photos; The third step, you can draw directly according to the real person. Step four, you can draw out of thin air by memory and imagination.

I have only been copying for three weeks. Now I spend about an hour copying every day. In two weeks, I began to try to create photos. I feel a sense of accomplishment when I see my work, and now I am fascinated by painting. When I went out to take the subway and saw the person sitting opposite, I couldn't help but think about how to draw this picture.

Let's share the learning results I copied. Do you have the urge to learn such a fashionable and easy-to-learn stick figure?
