3 reasons why this class is so special

①Explain laws and secrets in an easy-to-understand and concise manner

“What should I do after all?” It starts with an explanation of points that you can understand, and I will explain the details along with actual work.

The content is simple yet rich, and since you will acquire knowledge that is effective for application, you will be able to enjoy composition including coloring and background even more.

②Break away from the pure white background. Explanation of how to draw a simple background

“I don't have any knowledge of Perth, and I don't have enough time to paint the background... So I have no choice but to make the background completely white.”

The creator Ao Noao, who once thought that way, will explain in an easy-to-understand manner how he is now able to express his own view of the world in the background.

Let's hold down the points that you can put into practice as soon as you know them, and brighten up your unsatisfactory illustrations!

③ You can imitate it right away!Finishing the illustration

Careful lectures on everything from parts such as hair, skin, costumes, accessories, and eyes to how to draw backgrounds.

You can lay the foundation necessary to complete a one-picture work.

Hello. My name is Ao no Ao and I am an illustrator.

In this class, I'll teach you the secret to drawing illustrations with a worldview centered on coloring and background.

I started drawing illustrations completely on my own, and thankfully, I received a lot of requests.

Since I am self-taught, I have grown up with many detours, and I think that is why I can explain my knowledge, tips, and procedures in an easy-to-understand manner from a standpoint closer to everyone who was interested in this class.


“As I paint the characters, the colors become more and more cloudy, and they deviate from the image I wanted to express.” I know “something different”, but I don't know how to fix it. I'm supposed to be using vivid, bright colors, but my eyes are just flickering and there's no sense of transparency at all. I'd like to create a view of the world using a single picture, but I can't draw a background, and I don't have time to study Perth. First of all, I don't have that much time to spend creating illustrations!”


I used to feel that way. If anyone has even the slightest similar problem, I definitely want you to take a look at this class.


Procedures and methods are briefly explained in each coloring process, such as character color scheme, color selection, and shading. Furthermore, all ideas for time-saving backgrounds utilizing materials and Crysta's functions have also been introduced, so even those who feel unsatisfied with the background will surely be able to incorporate their own view of the world.


Try using illustrations to express the beautiful dreamy world that unfolds in your head.
