As you may or may not be able to tell, I am horrible at making digital art. So, I have decided that I need to learn how to make better digital art. Art has always been a weakness for me and being able to make good art can be very helpful when making a game. Every game needs good artwork. To learn how to improve my terrible skill, I looked up how to make better digital art.
I found an article on DeviantArt called 10 Tips to Improve your Digital Art. Their first tip is one that I have yet to take advantage of. I haven't gotten my hand on a graphics tablet; however, I have used one before. Tablets make it a lot easier to draw because it's like you have a pencil in your hand. The tablet pens let you change the pressure by how hard you press. I found tip three and four very interesting. Tip three is to draw big; drawing big helps with getting proportions accurate. TIp four was all about lineart. I had never heard of lineart. According to the article, the line's weight is very important. I wanted to know more about what I can do, so I looked for some more articles. I found an article on CreativeBloq on how to improve digital drawing skills. I learned that working on drawing figures and portrait drawings can help with your art. I didn't know that composition was a big part of graphic art, but I did know that the rule of thirds is very important in photography. They also recommend sketching regularly, which makes sense. They always say practice makes perfect. Tips to improve digital drawing skills:
