Continuation of yesterday's cloud style. I think I'm getting the hang of this sort of style. I start with the second darkest tone, then work my way up to the brighest. I then finish with the darkest tone last.

For these, I tried using a blockier shape. Not 100% blocky like a rocky texture but slightly bulkier. I made the shapes feel cloudier by adding subtle textures near the bottom half of the cloud. I noticed that if there's too much texturing near the top, it ruins the flow of the entire cloud. It feels unnatural for some reason.
So ill keep this technique in mind for future clouds :D

I tried fixing the shapes of the previous sketch & added some shading. The top cloud needs some word though. I need to approach these wispy shapes in a different way because I'm taking too long fixing them after the initial sketch.
Ill add some more color to all of these 2 palette clouds in the future. It'll be a great idea to save some time while practicing shading.

Polished the sketches from yesterday. I maintained the shading that I always do but I should consider some other lighting variations

Ima try to draw wispy clouds for a bit. I think these guide lines are necessary because you can't draw the silhouette from the start

Revisiting some cloud sketches. Ive been able to catch some mistakes. Once i'm done drawing all the variations, ill create a new sheet that is an iteration of the old sheet. It'll be cool to see the slight improvements and variations over time

Trying out a new style with a bunch more colors. I sort of figured going from dark to lightest tones is the easiest method. Im still trying to figure out methods to recreate this reference picture tho.

Drew a bunch of wispy shapes. Ill try to combo these with my pre existing cloud shapes later on.

I took a break from clouds today and ended up liking this abstract dude doodle

trying out some different shading perspectives. It's quite confusing so ill study some more examples tmrw

a continuation of yesterday's style

going to draw clouds with 4 colors. ima try to draw every variation i can think of on the fly. once i draw every variation, ill increase the size 2x and repeat the process

The flat bottom clouds are a cartoony styled cloud. Ill transform these cartoony ones into realistic/anime styled clouds by adding more realistic depth to them. Here's the first pass on the silhouette.
I tried adding fidelity to the bottom area but not too much. Adding too much ruined the fluffy nature of the cloud. Ill add another shade color and fix the highlighting for part 3

Ok time to start writing some notes on each drawing!
I tried drawing variations of the clouds on the left side. I can catch myself making mistakes and can fix them quicker now. The previous mistakes, for the most part, are shapes that are placed in the wrong areas.
Im still experimenting with the patterns so ill do a 3rd pass in a few days
