Ello again guys. :D

So for this post, I decided to show you one of my dress designs. This is an old design, that I redrew a few days ago. I started designing a few years ago, and while I think the designs themselves are alright, the figure work I find hard to work out. So in redrawing the design, I decided to make it a cartoon version, inspired by the very popular cartoon tumblr icons. (pictured below)












In using this as a inspiration, It helped me greatly with my design. Here is a picture of my dress design using the  computer cartoon: 
 I made it a little different to the first cartoon, only using it as a template. Don't be afraid to do this, as it helps mature your drawing skill until you can do it on your own. 
I then decided to take it a step further using paint.net, by making a computer made version of this design. I used the first cartoon computer image as a template, changing the hair and clothing to match my design. Here it is: 





 I personally don't find the computer made design as textual, but anyway.


I like to make my clothing designs a little different and unique. So if you don't like different, you may not like my designs. I use mixed colours in many of my designs, and added detail to some places. I hope you like the different ways I displayed my design. 
Expect to be seeing more of my designs. c:
Have a good day.

Sorry for the wait !

Hello fellow, drawers and bakers

Matt here with two new drawings because I didn't have enough time yesterday to post anything, anyways, I hope you enjoy them, both! The first dress is far my favourite because it is a classic dress rather than the one below, but I think thats just my drawing skills, considering I rarely draw antyhing but dresses... Anyways, thats for you to deicide!
Don't forget to check out the contest page here for the latest contest, its a drawing contest and you could win a $20  game gift card of your choice if you win


Also, don't forget to follow the blog, leave any suggestions for drawings in the comments section, because honestly, I don't have a lot of ideas

And as always,
Lots of love, Matt

Ello guys, 
So for my first post, I'm going to be talking about drawing journals. This is where you can draw anything you want, and what ever you're feeling at that particular time. This journal is basically a diary, except instead of words you're using drawings and pictures. It's a good idea to buy a small visual diary, so it's easier to carry around. Here's some examples from my drawing journal.

 

So basically I just drew what ever came to my mind first and what ever I was feeling. Don't be afraid to use other pictures or drawings as inspiration or a template, as long as you make it your own, it's not copying.

Here is one of my most recent drawings. I drew this while listening to music, and that inspired me to draw him. I used a photo of him as a template for the outline, then just did the rest myself. 
(Sorry for the long post)
I highly advise having a drawing journal, I personally find it a lot more efficient and fun than a normal diary. Feel free to submit photos of your drawing from your drawing journal to Matt at: mattybonbons@gmail.com
Thanks for reading my post, expect to hear more from me. c:
