Step 6Training wheels - using a partial stencil
Some designs are complicated or just difficult to sketch without making lots of mistakes.
Personally, I have issues with murloc anatomy. I'm more used to drawing humans.
This is where the partial stencil comes in. Once you have a sketch on paper that you're pleased with (create it any way you like, even if you have to print something out or trace it). Cut it out with a thin blade, hold it in place on the shirt, and paint light brush strokes (with diluted paint) over it from the inside outward.
Once you have a general, shadowy outline, you can sketch in the main lines and continue from there. I like the look of the shadowy outline, but you might prefer to trace your pattern some other way.

I should have read this through before commenting on the step in the start, I see a baby murloc now! <3 Do you have your art online anywhere? Like deviantart? You're really talented and creative, I'd like to see more of your work :)
