Simple Digital Art for Absolute Beginners! (Sketch to Finish)

There are multiple ways to create digital art but as a beginner, you can start with this method that can be used for multiple software and apps not exclusive to FireAlpaca only~! The software I am using is a free drawing software called FireAlpaca. The drawing in this video is of @AwesomeKick 's persona of herself. Do check out Jac's content! (All related links below)

I made the switch from krita to firealpaca yesterday and barely touched it, your video was a great step to step tysm!! :3

[purpleflower]

To be honest when I first started digital art, your videos were the first tutorials I ever watched. Seeing a new video from this channel makes me so happy and the feeling of nostalgia is real. Glad to see you back.

I used this video today and was able to get a drawing done in under an hour. Your videos have helped me so much already I literally cannot believe it, thank you so much for the tutorials and great art!

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!! i haven't been able to find a step by step on doing a simple drawing so that I can slowly know how to work the program and start (hopefully) doing some practice on Firealpaca! Thank you!
Nice video, btw

[raymacdonaldcreations]

Excellent! No worries... I listened to your video. You have a beautiful voice and worth listening too...and I got a good laugh at the beginning. You made this tutorial very entertaining. :)

thank you so much this was helpful, you deserve way more attention than what you have 💕

[TheYamiJK]

Nice and simple and to the point! Best of all, it didn't take forever. Admittedly I just did a cube along with this tutorial but it got everything covered I would have wanted for a beginning/starting point.
Faving this for future reference as I try slightly more complicated drawings.
