Hello everyone. I’ve been busy with my art commissions and haven’t had much time to work on my Youtube channel. So instead of just not uploading any videos, I decided to try something different and start a step by step drawing tutorial series using Photoshop. This will be the first of many tutorials and I hope you find them helpful!

Sakimichan Step By Step Tutorial – Photoshop CC (Part 3 of 3): A blog to teach readers how to draw your OCs
Once you have a good sense of shape and form, you can play more freely with the details. Look at what you have drawn so far and decide if it needs more definition. If so, shade it again by defining the light and dark areas. If not, move on to the next step!
You can also add smaller details like clothing or hair at this point.*
Once you’ve finished drawing your character, save it! There are a lot of different ways to save files in Photoshop. You can save it as a high quality JPEG file for printing or as a high quality PNG file for use online.*
You made it all the way through! Now you have an original character that looks great and is ready to use however you want.*
I hope I was able to teach you how to draw your OCs. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email at sakimichan@gmail.com*
If there’s enough interest I’ll make a video showing you how to color and shade your character.*
Good luck!”*
Sakimichan is a popular artist on DeviantArt, and she’s one of the artists I look up to for color art. She’s been drawing for about two years now and has some really amazing work. I especially love her use of color and shading.
Because of her popularity, it’s really easy to find tutorials on her art. Her tutorials are super easy to follow and provide awesome step by step instructions with lots of pictures.
The first tutorial I tried was this one: How to Draw: Human Hair Step by Step – Sakimichan Art Tutorials
I was looking forward to trying this tutorial out since I’ve been wanting to do more realistic looking hair in my own artwork. The end results are pretty nice and the tutorial has a lot of detail. It’s an easy step-by-step guide that anyone should be able to follow along with.
In this third part of the three part tutorial, we will learn how to add skin details and finishing touches. I’ve already shown you how to draw the face of your character in Part 1, and how to draw the body in Part 2.
In this third and final part, you will learn how to add more facial details (like eyes, nose, mouth) and how to add clothing and accessories.
Step 4. Now that we’ve got our lines drawn, it’s time to add some detailing. I use a Wacom tablet, so I can easily erase things if I make a mistake. You may want to draw lines with a mouse or touch-pad, but as always, just do what you’re comfortable with! To start off, I like to draw the eye and nose first.
I find it easier to separate the features of the face into distinct layers so that I can focus on each one individually without having to worry about messing up the others. It is also much easier to erase my mistakes when they are on their own layer!
For this step, colour doesn’t matter. You’ll probably end up changing it later on anyway!
I started by drawing the outline of her eyes and nose in black. Then I filled them in with blue (I used
When it comes to drawing and digital painting, there are many tools you can use. A lot of them are naturally expensive, such as Photoshop and Wacom tablets. However, there are many free tools available to the aspiring artist. Here is a list of the best free digital art resources:

Another thing you can do is to draw a line and then use the deform tool to move it around. You can also use it to change the shape of the line.
