Tips of the Month
Thank you for your posts!
Out of the Tips posted between Aug 1, 2021 to Aug 31, 2021, the writers of the following will be rewarded a cash prize or GOLD!
The theme most posted to was Drawing All Sorts of Poses. Lots of Tips were published on using 3D drawing figures that allow you to view and draw the same pose from different angles. Although there were only a few submissions to How to Draw Vehicles, there were a lot of technical Tips that use features such as the perspective ruler. Lastly, we received many pixel art drawing techniques, including how to process pixel art once you have finished drawing it and how to go about animating it. Submissions for the next Tips of the Month have already started! We’re looking forward to your entries!
