Spider-Man & MJ Timelapse

Hi everybody!

Here is the timelapse from the sketch of Spidey and MJ commission https://www.instagram.com/p/CMWuO35n2aF/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

(The colors I apply here are just rough to use as a references for when I do the final ones on paper using Copics)

Putting together a scene like this is always fun but a bit complicated because you have to make sure both poses fit together and look cool.

Ok, so you might think this is silly, but as an artist I always tell myself this when I work: "make it look cool" I know, I know, it's silly.

But it's so easy to lose yourself in the technical aspects of a scene like this, trying to make everything fit together, proportions, view angles, faces, hands, feet... you can forget to make the drawing look good, you know, appealing to the eye.

So I'd say don't focus too much on making everything perfect in terms of proportions or anatomy, but search for that "wow" factor which in the end is what artists, and art lovers look for in a piece.

Done on Wacom 22HD with Clip Studio

Also some of you ask me what brushes do I use, it really doesn't matter, everyone uses different stuff. Just use a few and choose the brushes you feel more comfortable with.

That said, I use Clip Studio preset brushes, I do my lineart with "darker pencil" I think it's literally the first one. xD

So as you can see you don't need to use crazy rare brushes you digged through the internet for hours.

Enjoy!
