I think you could imagine each “layer” of the background as a sheet of paper. In the “don’t” section, there’s not much depth. You could also think of the old Disney movies, (especially the beginning scenes that establish the setting) which used something called the multi-plane camera.

@garbageOwO

Well, if you haven't seen Lavender's posing video already, go do that. Now, here's my advice. Draw a line of action through your characters. A line of action is a usually-curved line that goes through the figure's body. It's kind of hard to explain, but it definitely helps.

Hope that this helped!

Perfect timing! I was just making a scenery-focused piece, which I have very little experience in, and I was starting to get a bit demotivated because I was feeling insecure. Asking myself stuff like, "Is this okay?" "I don't know if this is right." "Ehh, maybe I should do something simpler." that kinda thing. But according to this, it looks like I'm on the right track! I guess I'm not as bad as I thought. Thanks for giving me a boost of confidence :> I'm ready to finish it!

Of f**king course I haven't seen this till now. Usually whenever I draw backgrounds I just make it a color, lighten that color and draw a square behind the character(s), then do a border depending on the color of the background. I think it looks okay when I'm just drawing a character by itself or with another character, but it just doesn't work for a scene in my comic, or something like a stand-alone piece to tease a new comic or something like that. This helped a lot, and even though I'm 99% sure you won't see this, we appreciate everything you do to help the art community, Lavender!

Lavander, I just want to let you know that I watch every single one of your videos and click them as soon I see them in my recommended. I also occasionally watch your other channel Lavender Jam, and have read your comics. I love you and your videos sooo much, it surprises even me. Edit: just realised how creepy my comment turned out, sorry!;;

Sometimes its either elaborated background without character or the reverse. Not all the times, but it is annoying to fail so much at making a complete illustration. Dynamic characters in voids and lavish backgrounds with figures that do not match at all.

Lichen is the gray:green stuff on rocks and tree bark that sticks directly to it and you can pick it off like nail polish. What you're drawing is Spanish moss. A beautiful drawing overall though!

I'm really bad at thumbnailing. I either can't think of anything, or I have an idea I really like and can't help but try and squeeze a bunch of detail into my tiny sketch, and just focus on the one thumbnail. And when I have an idea, but I can't think of all the details, I just don't even bother. My design teacher hated me so much for it ;)
