Hi Pimpoum,

I understand the frustration when a form doesn't come out as intended. I advise you to go with the form that is too big, rather than redoing the construction, as we inevitably make mistakes and redoing a construction until it is "right" would count as grinding.

We inevitably draw things differently from how we intend, due to us not being robots who can make every mark perfectly each time. So, you will inevitably deviate from your reference image. Always treat the reference image as a source of information - something you observe carefully and frequently to apply that information as well as you can, but not as the end-all be-all of what you're trying to draw. So, if you deviate from it despite your best efforts, that's not actually a problem as far as the course is concerned. What matters most of all is that you hold to the 3D structure you're building up, and that you do not undermine its solidity under any circumstances. If that means the end result not matching up perfectly in some ways with your reference, that's fine.

Marco Bucci's Getting Started with Digital Painting

Marco Bucci's Getting Started with Digital Painting

Marco Bucci's got a ton of great courses available on proko.com, including some of the best videos you can find on using colour and light. Since a lot of our students want to break into working with digital painting however, I thought this course in particular would be a great start to get into the weeds with how to navigate the confusing world of layers, brushes, and more.

This course highlights programs across the full spectrum of options, ranging from the current industry standard Adobe Photoshop, to the Free-and-Open-Source darling Krita, as well as the mobile favourite, Procreate.
