Art plz

Hello everyone, as you may or may not know I am still very new to this forum. The Endless Forest is a wonderful game and experience, so much so that it has drawn out the artist in me. Which says a lot considering that I don't draw very often.

That being said I am trying very hard to work with my tablet. Yes I have one, but I much prefer paper and pen rather than online drawing. However, with my deer anatomy lacking and wonderful pictures out there I can trace outlines of, I can't help but ask.

Could anyone give me tips for working with Paint Tool Sai? Many layers and practice is a given yes but I'm horible with recognicing layers and which to shade with. I always start with layer one being the vast outline, all together. Then I work on the pelt from lightest to darkest. Starter at Lightest (the white and pale colors of the fawns coat) to Whiter (The light tan to peach color of the pelt.) Darker (The chestnut and tan colors) to Darkest (the red and brown colors)

Then comes the shading and that where this get tricky, how do I start blending the colors? Do I make a new layer?

Any tips would be appreciated. Thank you, as you can see from one drawing i have I seriously need to work on my practice.

Butting Heads

Despite it's youth, this young fawn can't wait to grow up. Already through the forest many of the older deer gallop and trot all sporting their majestic antlers.

Today young Atoli has something in mind, a little secret she's learned. Although she is a female deer, she swears upon getting her antlers. With a kick she rears her front body up and waves her young but powerful front legs in the air then, she charges.

...

Only to have her plan backfire as she rams head first into a small pine tree.

'Oww.' She shudders, picking herself up and shaking her head to clear away the stars. 'That could have gone better.' Still slightly dizzy she would not let this deter her. She backs away, skidding one of her front hooves on the ground and readies to charge again.

She will find a pine cone and she will get her antlers.

Wake up

A young fawn twitches it's nose to the smell of flowers and fresh dew grass. What awaits in this world?

Vaq's Journal #2: Bibidi Cadabra Shazaam! (A study of magic)

Since my last entry I've been examining other deer and how magic affect them. I've been looking for a style of my own for when I'm fully grown and I can safely say I've found the perfect look for myself. A Magpie mask, the Venetian Carnival antlers, and finally a Noh pelt. Though, once I've mastered the magic of The Endless Forest does not mean my tricks will cease. Oh, Gods no. Once I have mastered the magic on myself I will become a spirit of shenanigans, a totem of trickery, a paragon of pranks. Some deer may find me antagonistic, but I merely want to have fun and share my fun. As a side note, there is nothing funny about spell spamming, that's just mean. A simple one time pelt change is all you need for a good prank.

Today I pranked Unplugged. He seemed a little upset at first, but he found the humor in the situation. Luckily, my friend La was there too, so naturally she got pranked as well. Then a bunch of fauns showed up and played with us as well. I've met so many nice deer lately.
