Pretty self explanitory , but i suck at posting so what do i know ;P
Post any good tips from beginner to medium to expert. It would be nice
if you labeled how hard they were. You can also use links if you
know of any. I expect this post to be useful to people who are new to
art , Or are rentering the field OR people who are better and have
amazing tips to share to OTHER better people :wink:

... Try looking around the Art forum.
There was a point where Spartan kept going on and on and on and on
and on about links he needed for "how to" and if people
could write tutorials. Meaning: There are many links to tutorials and
tips written in the threads that will tell you everything you want to
know ... so look around, please.

i meant more for things like that one guy put up... Usefull , But all
around you would never know To search for it. I kinda wanted to make a
post that covers the things that you wouldnt know To search for. Maybe
somebody could post a long list of spartan's art tip posts =)

At the rate of the art forums im almost spamming it ... sorry about the
massive amounts of forum posts i guess i need help on finding beginners
art stuff = /

And most of those have links to other sites ... try using google, thats

site was "worthy".

Well if your drawing fro ma picture, an easy way to do it is measure the picture and then get a bigger piece of paper and scale it to fit the bigger piece. Then make a grid onpicture measureing off in which ever incriments you decided to use, then scale it up to fit the bigger piece of paper.

Then draw your picture for all the squares instead of the whole thing. If you have problems, try flipping the picture upside down and yours too. This lets you draw what you see and not what you think/know.

I hoped I helped some these are something I have done for a while, and I got to an art school.
