Just as I answered in a previous ask, majority of my works included experimenting so this is probably far from being the actual right way to achieve DR style but it’s what I did so ahaha sorry :v

I used Sai.

<—Soft line brush—Flat brush—Airbrush—Eraser—>

Soft line- Used for sketching, colouring, painting. You’ll need to be familiar with the pressure sensitivity when blending so better get a feel for when to press hard to get solid colours. Adjust the min size depending on where you’re using it, eg. at 0 for fine lines.

Flat brush- The whooshy effect lines. Again, adjust min size to your preference; set to 0 to get the pointy flick stroke.

Airbrush- Didn’t use it on John but tried on Jane. Mostly on her face to give it that glowing kinda look. Else, mostly used for minor adjustments of colours and extra blending.

Eraser- Self explanatory, adjust density to fit your needs. 20% then stroke a couple of times to get the whispy lines. I Used 80-90% for normal erasures

After sketching, added rough shading, then the base colours on a different layer underneath the sketch. I just flattened it afterwards and worked on one layer all through out.

I went and redid a lot of parts as I progressed.

For after effects, moved it to photoshop: duplicated the whole thing -> gaussian blur -> set blur layer to linear burn at 25% opacity

Also added a pattern overlay on the original layer: greyscale paper (kraft paper) -> Overlay at 45%

Hi, there! I’m back with an extremely short guide to kimono!

Disclaimer: I do not pretend to know everything there is to know about kimono and this guide only covers the smallest fraction of information. What is in this guide comes purely from my own knowledge and research, and I am very sorry if I made any mistakes. Let me know if I did and I’ll fix it asap :). I’m also sorry for the terrible drawing of the girl on page 4(rilly rilly bad) :T

Lastly, these pics are massive! Forgive me! m(__)m

LINKS:

(All of these will be in Japanese. There are lots of pictures so it’s okay if you can’t read it!)

1) Kimono (this is the page I referenced for my drawing on page 4. It is a wonderful breakdown of kimono structure and the artist shows much more detail than I did. Check this link out for sure!)

2) Obi Reference #1

3) Obi reference #2 

4) Obi reference #3

5) Moar obi!1!

6) Google Japan image search results for ‘kimono’

7) Google Japan image search results for ‘obi musubikata’ (obi  how to tie)

And that’s all! I hope this was useful for anyone wanting to draw kimono but perhaps having a little trouble with the details :)
