2nd tutorial video in one month! Woo! This one's shorter this time, too. 20-ish minutes. :D Um.
In this video, we go over scanning an already-drawn traditional drawing (pencil/pen/whatevs on paper), importing it into Paint Tool SAI, editing it to be a suitable sketch, using the Linework/Vector layers to outline the sketch, then using Clipping Groups to add shading/highlights/patterns to the blocks of color. :D
Here's the finished drawing on DA: fav.me/d8g06zz
Music!

I added a video feed of my hand and tablet! :D :D Im so proud of myself. O_O But really, I am. I was befuddled. Thats a word, right?
Video 1 of 2. This one is on drawing pointing hands, and the second video is about coloring/shading in low-light situations. :D
The second one will be out soon, I promise! Classes and midterms are thwarting any attempts though... Within the next...
...month...? Sorry!

Haha, first time Ive done a complete redo, video and all! You can watch the first version here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X6YoX7C0Wk
Aaaand just like the previous one, I did a little switcheroo at the end. Not only last-minute changes, but my recording program (Hypercam) freeeaaaked out for the last hour and a half of video (the entire shading process). So I condensed it down to a half-hour-redo. But I used the original finish anyway. More detail and whatnot. Sorry bout that. xD
Thanks for watching!

Sitting with crossed arms and legs! Woo!
Messed up a little on the anatomy around the pelvis in the sketch, but I think I was able to cover it up a bit with the clothes and coloring...
