Question

How do I draw a big tree?

Community Answer

If you mean tall, elongate the trunk but not the branches. If you mean "bigger all around," widen the trunk and spread the branches wider.

Why do I need to add cylinders to my tree?

Community Answer

The cylinders can help you shape your tree and choose the correct placement for your branches. However, you can skip that step if you don't think it's necessary.

Question

How do I make sure my details on the trunk of a tree I am drawing don't end up like lines?

Community Answer

Add less lines and shade abit arounf the edges with a darker color. You could practice by drawing a tree trunk and just adding lines to your liking.

What color is the trunk supposed to be?

Most tree trunks are medium brown, but there is a lot of variance. Birches might be almost silver-colored, while cedars might be reddish, and oaks or maples are a more classic brown.
