Hi Karlaaa <3 do you have a favourite colour palette?
Is this the concept art link Karla’s mentioning? https://www.conceptartassociation.com/2021-caa-finalists/amalia-karla-ortiz

Tigershark, have you tried drawing people of different backgrounds/races? I find that helps me think about face structures in a different way
Do you have any advice about how to study a range of fundamentals? I’m self-teaching, and I know that I need to work on figure drawing (for example). Would it be a bad idea to also work on painting or color and light as I’m working on more basic drawing skills?

Have you tried the figure drawing fundamentals here on Proko? There’s a ton of free material here to start off on! Good luck
Hi Ms. Marvel 💕 wondering if you’ve tried other traditional mediums, such as gouache? I find that when laid thickly, it’s a little like oil!

This was awesome - thank you!

Is there a particular reason why Stan went back to using the Staedler lead pencil instead of the Blackwing? Is the Blackwing lead too soft?
2yr
Staedler pencils - I think the person asking the question was referring to these ones, that are more ‘matte’

Stan, you wear a ton of different hats - how often do you get to draw in a week?

This isn’t about drawing - Stan, what’s been your favourite thing about Proko 2.0’s launch?
What is a good place to find good portrait references?

Hi! Looking forward to the livestream :) Karla, I’m wondering if you have a process for book cover illustration? (I.e. Do you read the full book first, does the author provide any insight to character design for the artist, etc.)
Thanks in advance!
