Is there a way to make the drawing process easier? Drawing water can be one of the trickier elements to draw especially because no one section of water is the same however, there are techniques we can use to simplify the layering process. I find that using the methods mentioned in this video can make even the most challenging subjects easier to approach. I'll share lots of tips in this tutorial not only for drawing water but also how to capture a high level of realism on shiny or smooth textures such as the Dolphin. Although there are no real details such as individual hairs there is still so much to observe and recreate here to ensure the Dolphin has a 3D shape.
