Drawing smoother lines is a real challenge, for many of us! Here are a few quick tips for drawing smoother lines.
Hand position
For smoother lines, try not to draw from your fingers and try to draw from your elbow or shoulder. This might require a change of grip.
Try ghosting the stroke in the air before you commit.
When practicing ovals, circles, and lines, go _fast._ You also want to do linear relatively fast.
If you’re doing it traditional, try using a lightbox so you don’t damage the sketch when doing line art. This way you can practice lining faster and smoother with a lot less stress.
Digital Options
Digitally, all you need is another layer. A lot of digital art programs also come with a brush stabilizer as well, which can be super useful. Krita and Photoshop have it built in.
- You can also install a program like Lazy Nezumi for Windows or Hej Stylus for Mac. These are both paid, polished options by Indie Devs.
