hello everyone welcome to my youtube channel again. I'm Diana

and today I bring you a little bit different video

well, some months ago a company called "Tokyo Treat" contacted me

they told me, Diana we want to send you a surprise box called "Yume Twins"

this box is a monthly subscription box which each month arrive to your home with items from Japan

but you don't know what will come in the box. comes different things

in this box, the "Yume Twins" box, comes with cute things, kawaii things

I obviously accept, I thought, they will send me a box with cute things from Japan. Of course, yes

and so that this doesn't leave the theme of the channel that is drawings

I thought that I could make a drawing based on what the box contains

I still don't know what it contains, it just arrived, and I'm very excited to open it

this is the Yume Twins box

so let's see what's inside

cutter ready

I'll show it to the camera first

I can't see in the camera let's take the first thing

Cardcaptor Sakura was of my first animes. Just like I am so into Yuri On Ice, I was with Sakura

the last one. is a... i don't know the name of this thing

I thinks is.. gafette?

*no, gafette is other thing*

yeah, right?

no guys, I don't have idea, I don't want to lie to you

well, that's it. As I told you, was kawaiies things

and as I told you too I will do an illustration inspired in this things

Thanks you to Tokyo Treat and Yume Twins for the box. I'm grateful

is so very cute, there's so many kawaii things

d now let's go with the drawing

first I made my sketch with pencil as always

and this time I had a very clear idea of the drawing. I wanted it to be manga style

cute themed, to be the same as the Yume Twins box

after de sketch I did the line art with fine point marker color sepia

as I always told you is so very hard for me record the sketch because when I sketch I put my head too close to the paper

as you could see in the video, sometimes my head appears. Sorry but is so hard for me record the sketch

I always put my head too close to the paper

by the way, I feel so much comfortable with the line art because I used to get very nervous when I delineated

because, I don't know, I used to felt like I was ruining the drawing as I told them in past videos. my hand used to shake so much too

I was horrible, but now I feel more comfortable delineating

It was because I had practice a lot so that fear disappeared little by little

for this drawing I will use a sheet of this 300 gram watercolor block

As I was saying, I made this drawing inspired by the things that came in the Yume Twins box

at the beginning for the color I wanted to use Copic Markers. but as you know I don't have many, I have some but not all the range of colors

so I decided to use watercolors that as you know before I hated them and now I love them

and somethings that I can tell you guys, that I lived by myself, in my own experience

is that I don't like some art materials at first, I even think that I hate that material

or that I will never be good or that I will never be able to use them well

for example, the first time that I use the pastel colors, I HATED THEM

yes. As you heard, I used to hate the pastel colors. After have done so many cute Disney drawings

you will not believe it, but I used to hate them

I didn't like them because they stain a lot, and everything always get dirty with the dust of pastel colors

the watercolors too, I used to hate them and now I love them!

also with the Copic Markers

I watched on internet that these markers worked beautifully and the Japanese made wonders with these markers

and when I had them in my hands I did not like them that much. The first time that I used them I didn't like them

but after practice with them I started to love them and now are of my favorite art supplies

so, if you feel like you don't know some technique, maybe you just need to practice a little bit more

to become attached to the technique

for this drawings I wanted to use soft and pastel colors

I had a lot of fun drawing the dress, because I had not drawn clothes for a long time

It entertains me to make the folds, the waves that the dresses have

It took me a while to decide what colors I would use in each thing, to know if it will combine or not

and what I did was, first paint the things that I already knew what colors will use

for example the plushies, everything that came in the box obviously because I couldn't change the color of course

the flowers too, I already knew that It was gonna be pink and the leafs green so I painted them

and it was clear for me that the dress was gonna be between pink and lilac

and the background blue
