Detective Conan Good day everyone. I hope you are all safe. :) In this blog, I want to share something I drew. These were not included in my previous articles about art because I was ashamed to show it to the public. But before anything else, I would like to thank all those who showed me their support through comments, likes, and upvotes. I really appreciate it guys. Thank you for the advice and tips, and thank you for assuring me that it is okay and it is normal to feel this way. Thank you so much. ❤ Going back, I decided to share these because, honestly, I can't think of any article to write. :D This drawing was requested by my girlfriend. I seldom draw humans or anime characters because I don't like to draw faces. But I tried to make this because it was her request. So here it is.
It was actually my second time to use grids on making a drawing. The first time was an epic fail. Haha. I'll share it too on the last part of this blog. I erased so many times here because I was not satisfied with the result. I had a hard time making the face and hand parts.
Done with the sketch. I outlined it using a gel pen and erased all the pencils. I also colored the eyes using colored pencils. I really liked it this way. I didn't want to color the whole drawing because I was afraid I might spoil the overall look of Conan.
But I asked my girlfriend if she wants me to color it, and she said yes. *Okay, as you wish my dear. ;)* I started coloring the ribbon using a colored pencil too.
Next was I colored Conan's coat. I started with the darker parts then colored the rest with a lighter shade of blue.
Done with the coat. I am not really sure if I did it right. I also finished coloring the skin on this part.
This is the end result. There are no lighter or darker part on the hair because I was already tired by this time and I just colored it freely. I also darkened the coat a little. I will never forget the looks in my girlfriend's eyes when I gave it to her. She was so happy and I was too. I was overwhelmed because she really appreciated it. I almost gave up on this one for so many times, but still finished it because it was her request. And it was worth it. She even made it her lock screen wallpaper. 💕 I am not a pro when it comes to drawings and I will really appreciate any tips on how to improve. ;) **BobongGamer and Tikboy**
This is my first drawing where I used grids. It is Bobong Gamer, an online game streamer, with his sidekick Tikboy. I made a mistake on gridding here that's why it ended this way. :D Bobong Gamer looked chubby in my drawing. :D But as what they say, you learn from your mistakes. I made sure that there were no more mistakes on the gridding when I drew Conan. ;) Thank you for reading and keep safe everyone. 💕 -Gwenie

Nice sketch. I used to watch this cartoon as a kid. Infact I still sometimes watch it, love how he solves the cases 😀
Oh, another anime fan, i think?lol, what other anime did u watched?
Dragon ball z , as a kid I loved transformers also. There is a show coming to Netflix soon about transformers
I see, in manga series, dragon ball z has so many stories, transformers is good too, i had watched it when i was a kid n admit, i still watched anime until now n that's one of the good anime
Yeah dragon ball has many different stories. I loved the transformers always
That's good to know u do like anime/cartoons :)
Thank you. 😊 Yeah it was fun watching this while guessing who is the criminal. I'm not an anime lover but this and Hunter X Hunter are some exceptions. 😂
Year detective conan was one of the major hits in anime that is why many people have heard about it
Definitely a nice job, congratulations for this pleasant realization of yours and for having sent all the succession and progression ....
Thank you for appreciating. :)
This is not bad at all. You don't need to feel ashamed of these images. And you also see that it can be worth the while to cultivate more than one creative activity. When you feel the inspiration for one is lost, you can do the other. And while you work on that, the inspiration for the first one usually returns after a time. It is a little like crop rotation, where you regularly change between two crops you grow on a field not to deplete the soil of nutrients. And one crop usually provides nutrients for the other one. Different creative activities can work according to the same principle.
Thank you sir. I'll do this. 😊 Before I joined readcash, I used to draw different things. But I stopped and focused here. Because of all the tips you and the others gave sir, I realized that it should be balanced. Or else, I'll be tired of it and will lost motivation.
Detective Conan is one of the anime i've watched on tv n i still watched anime, only in you tube now n nice sketch u have there
Thank you. Yeah, this anime is really good.
Opo :)
beautiful sketch
Thank you. :)
Nice sketches, not all have the ability to draw keep doing what you love 😊 I really thought you are a female @Gwenie 😂😂😂
But I am. 😉
Oh! I see, I get it now sorry I was a little bit confused. 😁 Nice drawings keep it up.
Thanks. :)
you really a great artist it is my favorite cartoon series.
I love detective Conan right until now. I am a bit disappointed that the anime never get back to his original state which is a teenager. This drawing throws away all the disappointment. Thank you.
I'm glad you liked it. ❤😊
I thought you are a girl at first or is it the girlfriend you are mentioning mean, a friend that is a girl?
I'm a girl. :) The one I'm mentioning is my partner/girlfriend, she's a lesbian. :)
Got that. Se does inspire you and bring out the best in you.
Yeah. She really brings out the best in me, but sometimes, the beast in me. 😂
But you are still with her, therefore I believe it mean, she is still the best for you. 😅
Yeah. You're right. 😁💕
This is really nice drawing. You colour it very carefully. It's look like original. Carry on. I like you drawing very much. It's really beautiful. 💞
Thank you. 💕
Wow! You are very talented. ❤
Thank you. :)
Nice sketch bro. Well done.
Thanks bro.
Wow! This is cool. I myself is also trying lineart. Hope I can learn from you and I'd be happy if you support me too. Keep drawing! I love your art.
Thank you. You should share your arts too. We are here to support you. 💕
Aweee. Thank you so much. That boosted me up
You're welcome. 😊
Ganda po.. otaku po kayo?
Hindi po. Pina drawing lang yan ng bebe ko. 😁
That's cute >w< i love conan but the anime be too long. Such effort to use grid lines tho
Thank you. 😊 Yeah. I really need grids when making characters. Because if not, they'll look like aliens. 😅😅
You could try going with shapes? I learned from that which is why i hate grid lines 😂
Shapes..as in the basic shapes? I've never thought of this. But I think this will really help. Because I find it hard copying curved parts. I'll erase so many times if I don't use grids. Actually, even with grids. 😂😂
Yeah, like circles and triangles, just for the outlines then go detail by detail into it. That's the basic of sketching for me
I think I can imagine this now. I remembered those anime drawing tutorials. 🤔🤔 Did I get it right? 😅
Yes! Those tutorials- though it goes for any character tutorial anyways
There's nothing I love drawing more than living creatures/faces. Are you more interested in landscapes and objects, then? Colouring is also something I have little patience for, I don't even bother most of the time. Anyway, good trace, looks clean.
