Terrible tutorial of terribleness. I'm sorry, this probably won't help anybody, but I tried. :( I just wanted you guys to know my thought process while designing things in my sketches but I'm so all over the place it's hard to explain!

Please don't feel afraid to ask for clarification. It probably needs a lot of it.

Oh, and I didn't screencap my coloring, sorry. The problem is, I blow these files up to 300DPI and this one was about 4000x6000 px so it's very hard on my computer to paint AND screencap things. It makes Vista very sad and my laptop so hot that it burns me :(

Edit: Honestly, I am truly shocked that this got a DD, but I am very honoured. So thank you :devtransendingwings: for suggesting it and ^FantasyStock for featuring it. Most of all, thank you everyone who actually sat down and read the entire thing since I know it's a lot. Tutorials have helped me become the artist that I am today and it means so much to me to be able to give back in the same way.

Oh thank you! And yeah detail's a hard thing to do. Sometimes it gets so bad that my hand and wrist starts really aching. That happened especially with the gardenias in the background, but the results are often worth it!

Trust me.. you've helped me. lol I rarely think about composition or anything of the sort (I've been in 'special art classes' since Kindergarten but as you can see from my deviations, none of it helped) and I don't think about flipping the drawing to notice mistakes until it's too late. Thank you for this.. seriously. I'll definitely think about the process more the next time I draw. :)

Good, I'm glad I could <3 Even in this, I kinda flipped the drawing too late. I find it's best to draw the figure naked and flip it then before you draw all of the clothes which are dependent on the figure in the first place. Thankfully there's the handy dandy transform tool if you forget to do it until it's almost too late ^^;
