Sketching - Step 1

Avart

First, the sketch.

Usually I draw the sketch on paper and then scan it. But sometimes I directly draw on the PC, so the page looks cleaner.

When I do this, I create a layer and choose a pencil to draw a very simple figure, no detail or whatsoever.
Usually I pick a thik pencil for this, from around 10-11 px.

My software is Clip Studio Paint EX and some options are in japanese, but this little tutorial should work on other programs (like Photoshop, GIMP, Paint Tool SAI, etc.).
