Oh, if you have any questions about the resources, please ask~ How to draw a teapot illustration. The method of drawing a teapot illustration is as follows: 1. First, use a pencil to draw the basic teapot shape on the paper, including the body, spout and handle of the teapot.
2. Next, use a black watercolor pen or oil pen (or other colors) to outline the outline and details of the teapot, such as the texture and pattern of the teapot.
3. Then, use different colors of watercolor or colored pencil to fill in different parts of the teapot, such as the body and handle.
You can choose gradient fill or solid color fill to achieve better results.

After writing the watercolor paint purchasing guide for novices (dry information), I have always wanted to write another watercolor paint purchasing guide, but I have been unable to do so because of the watercolor paints.
It's actually much more complicated and much harder to explain clearly.
I spend several times more energy studying watercolor paints than watercolor brushes.
In this article for watercolor novices, I hope to write down the essence of the hundreds of videos and articles I have watched over the past few months, along with of course my direct experience using it.
I hope it can help those who are new to watercolor to avoid detours, spend less time, energy and money on purchasing watercolor paints, and use the saved time to improve their painting skills.
The popular watercolor paints on the market now include the following brands: Domestic Horsepower, Sakura, Winsor & Newton, Rubens (domestic), Lucas, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Meijile, White Night, Shinhan, Kusakabe
, Beautiful Blue Hummingbird, Schennelier, Daniel Smith (DS), Holbein, Schminck, MG, Jixiang Yancai, Phoenix Yancai, Wu Zhuyancai, Nicker, etc. In fact, there are many niche brands.
Not listed one by one.
None of the above paints is unique, which shows that they each have their own characteristics and audience.
Every painter has their own favorite brand.
The cheapest watercolor paints cost tens of yuan per box, usually around a hundred yuan, and the best ones cost more than a few thousand yuan.
How to choose and which parameters to look at are very particular.
Of course, those who are not short of money can buy all these paints home.
I saw on Station B that an UP owner with hamster syndrome had bought all the popular paints on the market, and all of them were full colors of the brand.
Almost all the paints have been used except for the color cards.
It is estimated that these pigments will not be used up in dozens of lifetimes, which is really a waste.
So whether you want to paint or become a hoarder of painting materials, think clearly before you start!
Below I will explain in six parts the classification of watercolors, pigment characteristics, characteristics of major popular brands, my introduction to watercolor paints, and watercolor paint guides recommended to novices.
The whole article is a bit long, so if you find it troublesome, you can just read the first and last parts.
But if you have the patience to read them one by one, you will have a more comprehensive understanding of watercolor paints!
1. Price range division Taking the solid watercolor configuration of 24 colors as an example, I divide the mainstream watercolors on the market into three grades: low-end paints. The first grade is cheap entry-level, with a price range between tens of yuan and 130 yuan.
, the main brands include domestic horsepower, Japan's Terrence Sakura, Taiwan's Lion and domestic Winsor & Newton.
Why is it 130 yuan? Because that is the price I paid for Sakura 24-color solid color.
To be honest, Sakura's box of watercolors is really expensive. I feel that it is about the same for less than 100 yuan, and its performance is not much better than those that cost dozens of yuan.
