LION CUB TUTORIAL
ADVANCED
Draw this beautiful lion cub with me from a reference taken by my friend Matt on our Kenya trip. This is a real-time tutorial where I show you step-by-step exactly what to do to achieve a detailed, realistic drawing. Some key techniques I'll teach you are how to draw yellow fur, subtle fur patterns and whiskers.
PAPER
I use Fabriano Artistico hot pressed watercolour paper 640GSM extra white for this tutorial. The 300GSM version would work just as well. Alternatively, I recommend Strathmore Bristol Vellum from the 300 Series.
