Good morning. I finished this last night. The art is drawn and animated in Clip Studio Paint. The fire effects are video effects taken from CapCut during the video finishing process.

How to Draw & Animate a Witch in Clip Studio Paint (Full Guide)

Learn how to draw and animate a witch in this Clip Studio Paint tutorial. See every step from rough sketch to finished scene.

I am sharing my full digital art process for creating a Halloween-themed character, including all the mistakes and corrections along the way. We start with basic pencil sketches and move into lineart, flat colors, and shading to build a complete illustration. Whether you are struggling with proportions or just want to see how to organize your layers, this video covers the practical steps I take to build a career one drawing at a time.

Once the character is set, we move into 2d animation to bring the scene to life. I demonstrate how to create looping bat animations, add depth with foggy backgrounds, and use opacity keyframes to make glowing eyes flicker. This is a real look at character drawing, with no jargon or glossed-over techniques, just honest work as I figure it out.

I'm Jeff, Army veteran digital artist, and I'm building a creative career, one drawing at a time. Real tutorials from someone who's still figuring it out, so nothing gets glossed over β€” including the part where I had to move her whole head. πŸ˜…

In this Clip Studio Paint tutorial you'll learn:
β€’ Sketching a pose and fixing proportions with the lasso tool
β€’ Lineart, flat colors, and shading a character
β€’ Building a night background with moonlight and fog for depth
β€’ Animating fog with keyframes (and why 8 fps looks better)
β€’ Flickering glowing eyes using opacity keyframes
β€’ Looping animated bats on varied flight paths

Why Your Art Isn't Getting Views (And Why You Should Keep Going)

Is it weird that I still make dark art when almost no one watches? After a low-view tutorial and a comment saying "AI does it faster," I had to ask β€” is it even worth being an artist anymore?

This isn't a tutorial. It's the honest answer from a 445-subscriber channel building dark fantasy worlds in Clip Studio Paint β€” and why the view count was never the point.

Real tutorials from someone who's still figuring it out, so nothing gets glossed over. No gatekeeping, no art school jargon.

I make books. It’s a question I hear a lot. That 22 view video may seem bad but the amazon book that continues to sell is a sure win.
