Say you want to draw Sponge Bob, everybody knows how Sponge Bob looks and can easily be drawn by memory. but it is not the case all the time because most of the time a little research is needed. If you read manga you know that the authors two must do some research for certain objects that they might want to draw.
This time I had to draw headdresses that the women of France wore in the 18th century. but because I only know so much about the 18th century in France I had to do some research of my own. For this kind of thing one must not do a simple google search and just draw the first images on the screen.
Although I must admit that my research could have been a little more extended, I can say that I had fun looking at old books from the library.
If you're a person that loves the smell of old books this is the kind of research you'll love.
With patience and perseverance narrow it down to what you'll need most. Right now proudly I most say this is what I've come up with and although it took me a whole lot of time, it was not a waste.
Once I color it I'll post it here. Follow me here and for more drawing tutorials among other things come back for more next week. It'll feature a friend of mine's work.
And don't forget it doesn't matter if you don't know how to draw keep practicing and you will always draw like a boss.
