First time I understood how to draw a car and the Tyre, including the perspective ,the subject I find very difficult.
Thank you so much.

[@Oni_HATTORI]

Thank you for solving my issues now I learned how to water brush

[@berolinastrassmann]

This was a great teaching lesson. I appreciate you breaking the shape down, using no complicated measurements or rules. I thought " I can do this" and started sketching along, it wasn't great, but i will try again and continue having fun! I subscribed!! I am off to see your back catalogue now. Thanks again!

[@SplashyCannonBall]

I’ve come to realize this is a practice. I can draw but not like this. I’m enjoying the process of learning.

[@Groinattack1]

Thanks Scottie. I realised I've been using way too much water when doing this style of work. Love the step by step insights.

[@SketchingScottie]

Appreciate it! Yes it’s good to not soak the paper too much with water👍🏼

[@spyros3007]

Great stuff!!❤

[@handymotte9937]

Hi Scotty, I redid the lighthouse again and it turned out great. Yesterday I had some problems with the perspective and the stairs, but today it worked better.Thank you for your great lessons.😄👋🎨

[@SketchingScottie]

So good you tried the sketch again! Glad the hard work paid off🙌🏼

[@finley624]

Love your urban sketching and this looks great! I'm curious how you started drawing in a single line without lifting your pen. It would be an interesting subject to talk about for those of use that don't know the story.

[@SketchingScottie]

Thanks Finley! Yea I started when sketching my daughter quickly. I do have a video on it actually here I think: czcams.com/video/1pDyjJmY5pU/video.html
