  • - Hi, I'm Kyra and I'm an animator.

  • You may be have seen me on our series Draw-Off.

  • I feel like the human characters are gonna be hard.

  • - There's human characters?

  • - [Kyra] Today, I'm gonna be drawing the

  • same drawing in three different mediums.

  • I'm gonna be drawing Tom Nook,

  • the cute Tanooki landlord from Animal Crossing.

  • (funky music)

  • So, the pose that I chose for Tom Nook is just, you know,

  • simple little one, him sittin' down, holdin' a bag of bells,

  • somethin' cute.

  • Tom Nook is a super fun character to draw, he's adorable.

  • It makes me sad that, like, everyone makes fun of him

  • nowadays and everyone's like,

  • "Ugh, he's just after my money.

  • "He doesn't care about me."

  • but I don't know, he's, I think he's a good boy.

  • He's just, he's doing his job.

  • And I'm going to do a super light sketch.

  • Don't want it to show through too much,

  • with the colored pencils.

  • I'm a little more familiar drawing with colored pencils,

  • because I used to use them a lot in college.

  • I like the textures that you can get with colored pencils,

  • its pretty cool looking,

  • especially when you scan it in to your computer.

  • Its pretty cool.

  • Probably the biggest area of color

  • is where I'm gonna start.

  • I don't know, you can start wherever you want.

  • Something that I forgot about, colored pencils,

  • is it's like a workout to do,

  • it's just like this constantly,

  • scribble, scribble, scribble,

  • until you fill in the space.

  • Like it gives you like a hand cramp doing it.

  • You can see me struggle as I go on.

  • I definitely get slower.

  • So what's nice about colored pencils is

  • you can do blending with them.

  • So for his ears and nose I'm going to take

  • a darker brown and blend it in, into a nice gradient.

  • What's also cool about colored pencils is

  • you can almost like, run the lighter color

  • over the darker one to get it into a more

  • smooth fluid, shading.

  • And for those lovely blue eyes,

  • I'm going to shade them too,

  • I was really looking forward to that part,

  • you want to make them pop.

  • For areas that are colored white,

  • it helps to add some like very subtle

  • light blue, or purple shading just

  • to add a bit of, dimension to it.

  • I'm also trying something that I

  • haven't really tried before,

  • because my hues are limited here.

  • I'm going to use a black to try shading things,

  • to just bring out those dark shadows a bit more.

  • And actually it worked out pretty well.

  • I messed up, you can see I messed up.

  • I wasn't thinking at all and

  • straight up colored yellow over where his

  • white sleeve is supposed to be.

  • So tried to fix it a bit with white.

  • But accidents happen, you just gotta power through it.

  • And there he is, Tom Nook in colored pencil.

  • This is my real house here, digital drawing.

  • So we're gonna be drawing in photoshop.

  • Digital drawing is what I do,

  • for a living nowadays.

  • Everything is mostly digital with animation.

  • You know, still the same principals,

  • as traditional drawing but now you have an undo button.

  • Again, same pose for Tom Nook,

  • but this time, we have a lot more liberty with the

  • sketch because it's on a layer.

  • We can just turn down the opacity,

  • instead of having to worry about like

  • erasing or making sure that the

  • lines are very light so that they don't bleed.

  • So I'm using the clean as a whistle brush,

  • from the kyle's mega pack, in photoshop.

  • And I'm gonna use a relatively thick line

  • with, wanna make it look a bit cartoony.

  • And instead of using that harsh, crisp, black.

  • I went for a, kind of greenish, dark gray.

  • I don't know, it gives like a, it's easier on the eyes.

  • It's like softer.

  • What's nice about digital is you can

  • really zoom in and just, get in there,

  • and put all those little, those details,

  • that you normally probably wouldn't

  • be able to get real clear in traditional,

  • because you're not good at planning like I am.

  • A technique that I like to do with

  • a lot of my cartoony drawings,

  • is that I make like the general outline,

  • pretty like thick and consistent.

  • But for things like the cuffs of the pants,

  • and the shirt and all the little details,

  • like inside the body.

  • Went for like a smaller brush.

  • Because I don't know, it gives like a

  • nice hierarchy of line width and shapes.

  • It also provides a lot of negative space,

  • which is really important when you draw cartoons.

  • Like you have to think about the way that

  • the shapes are laying against each other so

  • that they are readable for the audience.

  • You're seeing me redraw things multiple times,

  • and hit that undo button, again,

  • just the process of getting things how I like them.

  • Inking usually takes the longest for me,

  • because I'm like, I got to get these lines right,

  • before I commit to the color.

  • What's nice about digital coloring,

  • is you have access to like,

  • literally every color ever.

  • What I like to do is, I like to open up

  • the hue and saturation sliders and play with it a bit,

  • to try to get it to a, different hues.

  • See what I like, see what works.

  • So for the gradients on the nose and the ears.

  • I switched to an airbrush brush,

  • so that way we can just like,

  • gently cascade into the base color,

  • and you can see me struggle with the

  • trying to maintain a good balance of

  • negative space with the eye mask.

  • I don't want to touch the side of his head too much.

  • Went for like a nice muted soft sea foam green color

  • for the eyes.

  • Then I'm going to add a bit of like a,

  • like an aqua green blue for the shading in the eyes.

  • Something I also recommend if you

  • plan to use colors that are not strictly

  • like black and white.

  • For whites, I'm going for a lighter,

  • off yellowy, off green color.

  • Its very subtle but it adds world of difference.

  • It makes it less severe.

  • I didn't want to go of any intense shading in this,

  • just like a, pretty mild cartoon,

  • cell shaded look.

  • For the pinks of his ears,

  • I just wanted to make sure that they stood out,

  • against the brown.

  • Because if you make them too similar and hue

  • to the brown underneath it, it gets lost.

  • And here he is.

  • Digital Tom Nook.

  • Definitely the easiest for me to do,

  • again the most familiar with it.

  • It's the one that I work in, most frequently.

  • So the watercolors that I'm using are like,

  • really cheap.

  • I don't really use traditional media as much nowadays.

  • Because animation is more of digital medium currently.

  • But you know what, we gotta work with what we got.

  • So I usually start off with a

  • really, really, rough sketch.

  • Super light, because when we do the water colors,

  • we don't want it to blend through.

  • Also the paper I'm using is cold pressed watercolor paper.

  • Really good paper, highly recommend it.

  • So I got my pallette here,

  • and I'm going to start mixing that classic milk brown.

  • I'm gonna add some white and probably orange

  • or something to get that warm light pastel color.

  • You're gonna watch as I make tons of mistakes,

  • and struggle.

  • Because no matter how old you are,

  • and how many years of artistic experience you have,

  • you're always going to make mistakes.

  • I am a, living proof of that.

  • I usually don't use a lot of water,

  • because I'm afraid of it running all over the canvas,

  • and seeping into areas where I don't want it to go.

  • So I'm going to start by filling in all of the

  • biggest spaces that need color,

  • so the brown of Tom Nook,

  • and I'm going to make sure not to go over

  • the spots where I know I'm going to use a different color.

  • Especially if the colors lighter than the color

  • I happen to be using.

  • Watercolors are not as forgiving in terms of,

  • being able to go over them.

  • Because if you get a dark color into a very light color,

  • its going to be real hard to try to get that light color,

  • to look consistent again.

  • So like I said, because these tools are super cheap.

  • It looks pretty streaky,

  • but it's okay because any lightness,

  • we can fix by letting the water colors dry,

  • and then go over them with a darker color.

  • I'm personally of the opinion that you don't need

  • the most expensive, most high quality art tools

  • in order to make good art.

  • Like if you have a desire to draw,

  • you're gonna find a way to do it,

  • regardless of whether or not you have the proper tools.

  • Oh yes, you can see how I already messed up.

  • I forgot to leave the ears, uncolored.

  • So I had to use the pink over the dark brown,

  • which you can see, the dark brown through that pink.

  • But you know what, we're just gonna keep layering it up.

  • We kinda got a cool shadow effect,

  • with that dark brown.

  • So I don't know, happy accident.

  • Despite the fact that I'm a little stressed,

  • at how this isn't coming out exactly how I like it to.

  • Watercolors are really relaxing.

  • Because I clearly was not satisfied,

  • with just the watercolor, alone.

  • I decided to take an ink pen,

  • and ink all around the drawing,

  • think of it as like that nice tied together,

  • cartoony look.

  • I don't know, I think it's just make it pop a bit more,

  • looks a bit more satisfying in my eyes.

  • And there we go, watercolor Tom Nook.

  • Honestly, for all the struggle that I was going through

  • while painting this, and just the

  • unsatisfaction at the streakyness,

  • it came out pretty good.

  • You can look at a drawing forever and ever,

  • and be like this is stupid, I hate this.

  • But then you take a break from it,

  • or just look at the full picture,

  • and you're like.

  • You know what, I did it, it's okay, I can draw.

  • It's okay.

  • Thank you so much for watching.

  • Again, I really hope that this shows that,

  • no matter what artistic medium you work in,

  • you can make the art that you want to.

  • You should just do it, because it makes you happy.
