Draw flames (part 1)

by Vincenzo

 

If you want to draw flames this tutorial and its close companion how to draw flames are the perfect learning ground.

 

In the previous tutorial we studied the basics of how to realize a convincing drawing of flames, here we'll see a technique to draw a complicated flame.

The basic principles are the same that we used to draw basic flames but this rendition requires a little bit of more skill and attention to detail. Let's see how the process unfolds.

Draw Flames - defining the shape

I hope you can see it, but when you have to draw complicated flames you want to establish the general shape of the flame body before you start working on the single tongues. That's precisely what I have done here.

 

I have established a baseline from the flame originates and the general shape of the flame. In this case the flames will overall bend slightly on the right.
