This is one of those anime how to draw books, so it may not be the most accurate. It might help some people though.

Dealing with ART BLOCK

INTRODUCTION

Path of art is a path of struggle. A path that one time can be easy and appealing, quickly leading you to its destination, but the other time it can be full of obstacles or even blocks… art blocks.

What is an art block? Various artists from around the world seem to refer to ‘art blocks’ every time they have troubles producing new works. The cause and process of typical art block will differ from one person to another, but generally speaking: everything that prevents you from creating art, despite all the opportunities, can be called an art block. Although very common, art blocks can lead to some serious issues like loss of confidence, no motivation to improve or even fear of drawing (to avoid disappointing oneself).

In this little article I’ll do my best to tell you how to deal with this biggest artistic illness!

*cough* I was wondering if you could make a tutorial or something on how you draw your arms. >=> or if you have any artists you got inspiration from... ;-; your Sourin makes me really happy btw :3

Arms huh…yeah I have to say, arms are a pain for me to draw sometimes. It’s hard to make them look natural and it’s part of what make drawing people so difficult, because if the arm don’t look right, the rest of the body looks stiff. The shoulder, arms, and hands are among the most expressive of body parts, so it’s important to keep that in mind. Everything I know about drawing arms is based off of real life observation lol. (seriously though, I’ll stare at people’s arms, and sometimes my own, when I’m at the gym. If you have especially nice arm muscle definition, I will stare a lot lmao. I also just stare at people’s arms in general too. I promise I’m not creepy.) This is a basic rundown of how I go about drawing arms:

I divide it into three parts, the shoulder part that connects it to the rest of the body, the upper arm, and the forearm. Three tube-like lumps lmao. You can vary the amount of muscle and muscle definition to change it up.

And here we are again for eyes!

Once again, depending on your art style, the result may not look the same as it does on screen here. That’s because no one draws the same way and you can’t replicate what you see here.
