altuixde's learning to draw thread
altuixde:
I'm glad you like it, ani! I've never used Wine before but I'll look into it. Do you recommend any particular form of Wine, like WineBottler or an installation through MacPorts?

But now that you mention it, I can see that the arm she's holding the sword with is noticeably skinnier than in the original. I think I'll try to fix that. Once I'm done making changes to this one I'm gonna try to draw something original. Hopefully I'll get an idea for something to draw soon. I actually started a drawing of Ritsuko before this Youmu copy but I abandoned it because I have difficulty figuring out on my own where the folds in clothing go. Maybe I'll get back to work on that.

I totally understand that. I don't even bother with folds in clothing unless I'm copying something. XD I can't do it well, so why bother doing it at all? :P

Also, I've looked at the profile pages of my favorite artists on Pixiv and, of the ones that mention what software they use, they almost all use SAI...

Not sure how much Japanese you can read, but have you tried searching for 講座 in pixiv? This is drawing, so I imagine if you looked at drawings where they explain this sort of stuff, you'd glean some information out of it. Maybe 講座 and any combination of 服 and シワ would get you something to look at.
And in case you can't really read Japanese, this is what the mystery symbols are.
講座 - lecture/how-to
服 - clothing
シワ - wrinkle

Huh, I didn't consider looking for how-tos on Pixiv. I'll do some of the searches you recommended. Thanks, Cael! I can read almost no Japanese, though, and I'm sure that the tutorials will have some written explanation accompanying them. Still, even without being able to read what's written, they could be helpful.

Awesome!
That lineart looks so flawless. Your hand didn't even shake?
