Well, hello there! I'm ChrissaBug, a 2d game artist and animator by day and an illustrator by night.
I'm new to youtube but I have been drawing for my entire life and have been a professional artist in the game industry for the past 7 years!

On this channel, I plan to share practical tips, art advice, process videos, and maybe some DEEP art thoughts, who knows!? β™₯

Our latest tutorial is up!
I'm so excited to share one of my FAVORITE techniques with you!
HATCHING.


Hatching gives a wonderfully traditional, rustic, and hand-crafted look to artwork. But it can be tricky to approach in a way that supports your overall illustration rather than overwhelms it! In this tutorial, I'll show you how I approach hatching to find the right balance!


This tutorial can be applied to ANY drawing medium, be it digital or traditional, but since I am working digitally, I will share what 2 brushes are my go to for creating hatching.
The, In will go over the basic types of hatching and which types I tend to prefer and use.
Then I will show you how you can create a simple hatching brush in clip studio paint for filling in large areas with hatching quickly.


And finally, we will get to the illustration demo, where I will guide you through the process of drawing hatching into a character illustration.


I hope you find this tutorial insightful! Enjoy it on PatreonπŸ–€
