How To Draw Fantasy Art Tips
Fantasy art is a rather personal subject for me and one I can teach to those who want to learn or see how this type of stuff is created from start to finish, there are lots of books on this type of subject and quite possible you may own a few of them, I sure do, that's why I want to do my own articles on how to guides based on fantasy art.
First off, I wanted to start with the basics as you do in anything, the underlying basics are what everything else is built upon, so if you get this area right from the start you will be off to a great start in your drawing activities.
Starting off in sketching loosely and not knowing properly what you are going to do next is and sometimes can be a daunting task, but if you work with what you imagine you want on the paper and begin to draw lines and shapes, like in the diagram below you will begin to start at the basic level of idea creation.

Develop Your Drawing
Any type of drawing is an evolution of one pencil mark to the next, your scribbles have to make that leap to look like something you meant to draw and you will develop further, imagine your beginning drawing as a sculpture that you are shaping and creating by adding lines of gradual progression.
No piece of art that starts out is perfect and is going to remain perfect, it all depends on what path you take in your drawing, you yourself decide what your drawing will end up looking like, so you want to build up some good creative steam by brainstorming ideas and sketches together on the page, maybe draw lots of seperate ideas on a piece of A3 paper and see what you can come up with, I do this quite often and it works quite well.
And I'm talking about parts of faces and heads and arms, then that will be followed by weapons, armour and other ideas all bouncing off one another on the paper.

Drawing Creatures And Monsters
Monsters and creatures are only limited by your own imagination, so really go for it here as this should all be fun or you won't be here reading all this, right!??
See the thumbnails below and see examples of some creatures and monsters I created in under an hour of quick sketching madness, see how they all look different.
When drawing creatures and other types of monsters try to over exaggerate almost everything as this can work to your advantage and you can achieve some good results this way.
There are currently a wide variety of monsters and mythical creatures to get your inspiration from, obviously some of the best remembered are the ones in film as they are creatively realised to be realistic and invoke some reaction from the viewer and it's this that you need to capture and add to your own monster drawings.
Ancient greek myths also translate many a good monster or beast for you to be inspired by, again in film I draw alot of inspiration from old classics such as Jason And The Argonauts, Clash Of The Titans, I myself use to love the old Sinbad films and the work of Ray Harryhausen and his stop motion animation that really was before the digital age of CGI.
Some of the best monsters that are now household names are:
- Dracula/Vampires
- Werewolves
- Mummies/Zombies
- Dragons
- Frankenstein
- Aliens
- Predator
Those are just some examples of creatures and monsters that are well recognized in films and it's these areas that create more imagination for the artist to explore in his or her work.
Thinking of fantasy worlds and the settings of fantasy worlds you can come up with some great ideas, make a list of all of your favourite fantasy world creatures and elements that you like, these can be sorted into a quick list of words and phrases like wizard, castles of death,army of darkness etc.
This helps you generate ideas on top of your pencil sketches, but don't feel restricted to just this idea of creating new ideas, try to keep your eyes and ears open to the world as this is a source of inspiration all the time for artists as they create ideas based on reality situations and settings.

Comments On Fantasy Art Drawing
Thanks for the kind words, I hope to be doing more of these hub pages with my art on them and tutorials too in the area of fantasy art, I myself design quite alot of tattoos so any help you need I'll be hubbing for awhile!!.
Cheers
no offence but i could draw better than that
And who are you then wtfistthat with no hubpages account and no proof!! bwahahahahaha!!
I am certainly no effing faggot!! and if you don't need to prove yourself why leave a comment claiming to draw better than me, I don't pretend to be the best artist in the world, but if you don't have your art online then how can you say this?
Me thinks you are a comment bully of the highest order and have no self respect for yourself with that kind of language and certainly no balls to show your face here!
The cheek of it, and really most of my drawings will burn in hell as they are demonic in nature so yeah your right there.
Have a good day and get out of your bed the right way next time you wake up!!
Go waynet! =P you tell him, i want to start drawing fantasy in particular dragons but i do not know where to start anyone help?? books could be useful
I'd recommend you do your search on Amazon, I have bought a number of books to do with fantasy art and drawing other fantasy themes from here, a good one I found is a book called Dragonart by Jessica Neon Dragon Peffer, this book also has other fantasy creatures too, but it goes through drawing dragons quite well and simple too!!
Wtfistthat, do not slam my partners work!
He is a very talented young man, who does not show off about his work, he is trying to get somewhere in life, he is trying to make a living out of all this for his family and if you are that good, and that talented, then get some of your work on hub pages or whatever.
What gives you the right to slam people down, when my partners done nothing wrong trying to get his work out online and seen.
My partner tries so hard and spends so much time online every hour, people like you get me so angry, putting people down for no reason, just get a life mate!!
Furthermore, To that "what the fist that" or whatever his name is!
When you reply, what I guess you will, slamming my partners work, just remember one thing matey boy....loser!
You have really peed me off, because he does not slam anyones work down.
Wayne, he tries so hard to get his self out there, he knows his work isn't fantastic, he knows there are other people out there that are more talented than him, but at least I can say one thing about my man, he has balls! To get out there and try!
So you, just think on before you put people down you big fat jerk!!
yaah!! i brought more comments...even though not nice......look man i really didnt mean anything i said, seriously you art is very original and i only draw whats is in front of me. amandad i also own you an apology, even though you may not accept it , but thats ok and like someone said i dont have the ballz....sorry that i pushed your buttons and that i know i am a big fat jerk...thats why i am going to therapy and anger managment....you dont have to accept my apologies . Waynet i see that you got yourself a good friend and i promise not to ever bully anyone, ny the way this is the last time you ever hear from me.................
ok then!

Do you, perchance, have a deviantART account? If not, you might want to seriously consider getting one. If so, can you tell me your account name, so I can check out your portfolio?
Cheers there...I think it's demonic666evil over there on deviant art...which reminds me I need to update with new stuff soon over there!!
Hey, I think your work is very good. I would add a little ink to make it pop, but that's just me. (oops, wrote that before I noticed there was some ink.) And maybe a little snidgen of color. In the future just delete the comments from people who don't have anything constructive or coherent to say.
Cheers Scarebear!
It's okay...I'm not deleting your comment, because it took you time to make it and you make a valid point, that I need to add more colour to my work here, so cheers!
In fact I have some more art hubpages coming up in the next few days so who knows what I have in store?
I really like your artwork and the instruction you provide is practical and easy to read. We share some common interests in that I enjoy fantasy art as well, and created an instructional manual years ago. Thanks for your efforts, I really like what you are doing with your hubs!
Thanks Mike!
There'll of course be more hubpages like this coming quite soon!
Awsome, VERY. I'd love to try some of this. I'm glad I stumbled on this. (Steve Richards)
Cheers there!

Cheers MT Dremer!
Hopefully I will have some more new drawing tutorials and I am trying to get them looking better and maybe draw something from multiple angles with a darker pencil so that it shows up well.
Good artwork.. a little on the phychie though.
Merry Christmas/happy 10 to all.
