Shadowing-Übung: Draw This Cute Zombie in Procreate 👻 | Easy Step-by-Step Tutorial for Beginners - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

You can draw this in Procreate.

During this super easy to follow tutorial I will guide you through the steps of drawing this cute zombie character.

You don't need any experience with drawing or with Procreate.

I'm sure you can do this and that you'll end up with a really fun character.

The canvas we're working on is 2500 pixels by 2500 pixels

and of course I have left a free color palette for you to download down in the description.

So if you're ready let's get started.

We'll start out by creating a simple sketch of our little

zombie the sketch i would like to use the 6b pencil

which you can find in the sketching section and for the color we'll just use black

i have the opacity set to 100 and size at 30 and i will start with a rounded shape for the head

it's a little bit squished at the bottom and also at the top

around a shape like this and it has these big cartoony ears

and very big eyes you can make a circle here you can hold your pen in place

and then tap your finger on the screen for a perfectly round circle

and then we'll make this one a little bit smaller just

to make it extra wonky for the mouth we'll make like a little a semi circle like this

and then the bottom will be more flat then for the body we'll make a line like this

and this this is like its chest you can close it here at the bottom

and I will make a simple little simple shorts

so a little line like this for it's my crotch and then two legs two lines going down and

then a big rounded shape like this a big semi circle

and I close it with this at the bottom for its

shoes then a line over here for the t -shirt

so a little curve and then connect it to the body

and then simple arms like this

so this is the base feel free to take a screenshot of this

so you can use that as a reference

and how you're going to add more to this like pupils

for instance you can also have different sizes for those

and let's add some hair just make these rounded shapes then here this is like the left side

and then here we'll go to the right side in this direction

making these rounded shapes until you are here at the right ear

and then at the front you can make shape like this

and maybe some hair moving like this let's also add simple eyebrows

just like these sausage shapes now let's zoom in a little bit we can add some lines underneath the eyes

so that they are like sagging and here as well just an extra curve

giving him a little zombie feature now let's add teeth

to its mouth i want it to look a little bit like dorky just these teeth and then a little tongue

we can add this color here of its t -shirt

and we can add a shape to the ear let's make a curve like this

and then an extra curve inward just a simple cartoony eye

so curve like this and then a little curve like this

and now let's add some extra to the shoe we can make lines like this broader than the leg

and then a little bit of a wiggly line connecting these

so two lines like this and then connect them and we can add an extra line here

for like the sole of the shoe

and we can also add like little zigzaggy lines at the bottom of its short

and for the t -shirt as well maybe there is a hole in its shirt over here

and maybe the bottom part is also a bit irregular

and you can add pockets to its pants

and let's make this one a little bit zigzaggy now let's just create very simple fingers like this.

Just a few lines.

You can also add a wound to its forehead.

It's a bit like Harry Potter I guess.

it has a it's almost like a lightning bolt

and maybe he was bitten in his in his face so we'll have a big hole here

and we could also add a bite mark to its ear maybe there's part of its ear is missing

now let's also add a little chin line just a small semi -circle like this

and you can add as many wounds and damages as you like

and then once you're happy with your sketch again you can

make a screenshot here of course now you can lower the

opacity by tapping the n slide to around 30 percent and then tap a plus for a new layer on top.

And on this layer, we are going to create the line art.

And for the line art, I'd like to go to the inking brushes and use the studio pen.

And for the color, we'll use this one over here.

That's the seventh color in the first row.

Now, the opacity of this brush is at 100%.

I have the size set to 10%.

And with this brush, the harder you press, the thicker your line will become at least that's the case

if you are using a pencil like the Apple Pencil

which has pressure sensitivity so

that way you can play around with your line thickness a little bit now let's start by outlining the face

and it can be handy to rotate your canvas gives you a bit more control

sometimes it can be easier to make a curve like this down like this

now let's go for the ear here we have

that bite using a little pressure here making a delicate good line then

that curve for the ear and then we have the hair

and don't worry if you don't get the line in one go I'd say long live the undo option

Now for this ear, a little curve,

and then we'll continue with this part of the hair,

and then connect it here and you can make some lines a little bit more heavy especially look at the undersides

for instance underneath the face make that a bit more heavy

that will add well it'll add interest to the illustration playing around with that line thickness

So just following the lines, varying the pressure.

For these holes, I'll use a little pressure, and of course you could also just play around with the size of your brush perhaps

if you're a bit heavy -handed it'll be hard to change that thickness with your pressure

And this leg, those pockets.

Simple fingers, and then those shoes,

it's all very cartoony, a little extra line,

And then for the face, let's start with the mouth.

then go around those teeth create that tongue

and then here we can actually drag in the color I

see I undid this line let's go over there again we have that little chin using little pressure there the eyebrows

and for that wound I'm going to use very little pressure

making that more delicate and for this one as well

then for the eyes i'd like to switch my brush before i draw those let's go to the calligraphy brushes

and use the monoline brush since that doesn't have pressure sensitivity otherwise

if you create a circle it might end up like not

100

very even now let's set the opacity of the brush to 100

101

and the size to 10

102

and then we'll just follow our sketch draw a circle hold your pen in place

103

and then tap one finger on the screen for a perfectly round circle

104

and then here as well hold your pen in place tap one finger on the screen

105

and then let go and then we can switch back to our studio pen let's draw these pupils and then those saggy

106

parts I'll rotate the screen the canvas a bit again just to make

107

that easier and I'm using a little pressure and then we can add some extra lines

108

that's nice and then on this side we'll do the same

109

something like this you could make the underside a little bit thicker

110

just

111

when you vary the line weight in your illustration try to

112

go for all the undersides for example all the places where there would be a bit more shadow

113

or where something is like in touch with the underground now

114

you can make those a little bit thicker like here the underside of the shirt

115

and that'll that'll give a nice look

116

so don't go making all of the lines heavy

117

because then you will lose the effect could make this one a little bit thicker for the hair so just some undersides

118

i hope you're having fun creating your own little zombie

119

so far if you want to follow even more appropriate tutorials like 250 more including this tutorial in

120

which we draw a cute little witch then come check out my patreon page it is perfect

121

if you are starting to get a Procreate drawing addiction or

122

if you just want to get your skills to that next level.

123

So I will just leave a link for you down in the description

124

if you want to check it out because it will be great to see you there.

125

But now let's continue.

126

All right now we have our line art.

127

We can turn off our sketch layer and then let's tap our line art layer and set it to reference.

128

Now we can make new layers underneath

129

and use this line art layer as reference

130

and drop the colors on separate layers so let's go here first

131

and tap the plus

132

and then for instance let's go for its skin color that's this one second color in the first row

133

and we can drop it on there if your color still

134

spills out all over make sure that the entire line is closed

135

that there are no gaps or perhaps you need to change your color drop threshold

136

if you drag in the color you can go to the right

137

or the left and change that threshold and for the arms

138

and of course the legs and its neck

139

and this little part here now let's make a layer for the hair let's type a plus

140

and for the hair let's use this color fifth color in the first row let's drag it on there

141

and we can also use it for the eyebrows then let's

142

make another layer here we can do the eyes we'll pick

143

this color first color in the second row now let's also

144

put the teeth on here we can use this color fourth

145

color in the third row let's use continue filling you can

146

just simply tap here now you can't see the teeth here

147

and because we don't have a background color yet let's go to background color here

148

and use this color this first one as our background color

149

and then let's continue let's make a new layer let's tap the plus

150

and then let's color the wounds with this color fourth color let's drag it in there

151

let's see maybe yeah there we have it then you can

152

use continue filling fill these areas then we'll switch the color to this one sixth color

153

and the second row and use that for the eyes here

154

that will make another layer tap the plus let's use this

155

one for the pants we can use this color second color in the third row

156

drag it on there use continue filling fill these areas as

157

well then a layer for the shoes let's tap the plus

158

and then let's use this color sixth color in the third row and use continue filling

159

and now let's make a layer for the t -shirt let's tap the plus

160

then pick this color sixth color in the second row drag it on there use continue filling

161

and fill these areas as well and then let's tap a little check mark

162

so now we have all our flat colors now we are going to bring our zombie to life with shadow

163

and lighting let's start with the face let's go to this layer and also

164

before we continue let's turn off reference here just in case

165

you want to fill a shape you don't want to follow these lines anymore

166

if you create a shape on top here i want to

167

fill it you just want to make it follow the shape

168

that you have created so let's tap the plus

169

and then let's set this new layer to clipping mask so

170

that whatever we draw it'll only show up on the skin

171

and then for the color we'll use this one a third color in the first row

172

and we are going to use

173

that to create some shadow let's make the brush a bit

174

bigger 30 percent we'll go along the edge of the here

175

and along the face

176

and along the bottom part let's either rotate

177

or rotate yourself and let's add a little shadow underneath the eye

178

and also on top you can

179

also hold your pen in place

180

to make a nice rounded shape

181

and also So some shadow on the ear. And here as well.

182

And you can also add a few irregularities, some dots, it looks a bit sickly.

183

So that'll add a nice extra touch

184

and then let's also add shadows along the arm and here on the inside of its shirt,

185

its neck and on its legs and then let's go darker,

186

let's pick this fourth color and we can use that for even darker shadows just along the edge,

187

make it a little bit darker

188

and along its face here

189

and in the ear a little bit over here

190

and for its neck we can make that darker

191

and perhaps a little bit along the arm I think this

192

works nicely then let's also add some light let's pick this

193

color fourth color in the third row now let's make the brush a little bit smaller let's go for

194

like 15 % let's make a little light edge here a little highlight also do

195

that on the ear and the underside of the mouth

196

and we can also do it at this on this side of this arm

197

so I'm imagining the light is coming from this direction all

198

right then let's move to the eyes first let's tap the plus for a new layer on top set

199

that new layer to clipping mask and then let's use this color second color

200

and the second row

201

and let's create a curve like this you can hold your

202

pen in place again you could also use edit to

203

edit it a little bit go for something like this

204

and then go back to the brush color this in and then do the same over here

205

and then we also need some light here so we can pick this fourth color again in the third row

206

add a little light edge on its eyeball and a little shiny light

207

a little edge and a highlight

208

and then let's also add a little bit of shadow to

209

the teeth we can pick this color fifth color in the third row it's very subtle

210

but you can add a little line on the right side then we'll move

211

to this layer let's tap a plus set the new layer to clipping mask

212

and then let's pick this color fifth color in the second row we can use that to add a little bit of

213

shadow a little wigglies in that wound a little bit of texture

214

a little line along this edge

215

and then some wigglies to make this look like flesh then

216

we'll switch to this color seventh color in the second row for a little bit of shadow on its saggy

217

eye here as well looking great zombie guy then we'll move

218

to the pants let's tap the plus set the new layer to clipping mask

219

and we'll start with this color third color in the third row to add some shadow like underneath the shirt

220

and at the bottom of its pants and here on the right side

221

and we can also add some light touches with this first

222

color in the third row you can add a little highlight here

223

and also some little marks adding some very slight texture now

224

we'll move to the shoes tap the plus again set the new layer to clipping mask

225

and the reason I'm using clipping mask and not alpha lock is

226

because I like being able to use the eraser on that clipping mask layer

227

instead of having to pick with the base color

228

if i would be painting on here with alpha lock turned on

229

and i want to remove a part of the shadow i

230

would have to use the base color it can be well it can get a little bit messy

231

so i like clipping mask then let's pick um let's see this color first

232

seventh color and the third row we'll add some shadow curving along the shoe and along the bottom

233

now let's add shadow to this part of the shoe

234

and then let's add a little highlight with this color fifth color and the third row

235

let's add a highlight to the left side then we'll move

236

on to the shirt again tap the plus set the new layer to clipping mask

237

and then we'll use this color let's add shadow here at the top and here on the right side

238

and along the bottom a little bit and we can add some marks maybe it's like dirt marks

239

maybe a little shadow here

240

and then a little highlight with this color fourth color in the third row a little edge here

241

and here now we just need to work on the hair let's go to this layer tap the plus set

242

that layer to clipping mask

243

and then let's pick this color sixth color in the first row

244

and then let's first add darker touches let's make the

245

brush a bit bigger again 25 % let's

246

make dark shadow here underneath these parts of the hair

247

so we'll mainly go over

248

that lower part it also makes some shapes like some hair shapes

249

so darkening that entire underside also darken the bottom of the eyebrows

250

and add some dark touches here

251

and then let's use this lighter color fourth color in the first row to add some slight highlights

252

Along these curves, also here,

253

gives it a bit of hair texture

254

and we can also add a little highlight to the eyebrows

255

so it adds shape to the hair in a very simple

256

way now for the final part I'd like to add a sticker effect to my zombie

257

and to do

258

that I'm going to show you a trick let's turn off

259

the background color layer here let's go to the top here

260

and then let's slide down with three fingers

261

and use copy all then slide down with three fingers again

262

and use paste now at the top you have a layer

263

with your entire illustration let's turn the background color on again

264

and now we are going to drag this layer all the

265

way to the bottom then let's pick this color fourth color in the third row

266

and we'll go back to this layer tap it turn on alpha lock

267

and tap it again and use fill layer now it's just the silhouette

268

and now we are going to blur this layer

269

so we'll go to the magic wand then to gauzy

270

and blur and slide to the right until you get this a little glow around your zombie.

271

Something like this should be enough, 13%.

272

Then we'll go to the selection tool, the S -shaped ribbon, set it to automatic, and then tap your zombie.

273

And then it'll select the blurred layer.

274

And you can slide with your pen to make that selection grow.

275

Just make it grow a little bit let's go for like

276

86 % might be different for you don't go to the

277

layer menu tap the plus for a new layer tap

278

that new layer and then use fill layer again you can turn this one off

279

and now we have a nice white edge around our zombie

280

for a final touch I'd also like to add a shadow

281

so let's duplicate this layer slide to the left tab duplicate

282

go to the bottom one then pick this color that's the

283

seventh color in the third row drag it on there then

284

go to the magic wand to Gaussian blur slide to the right to maybe 10 % let's see

285

and then go to the move and transform tool let me turn magnetics off here

286

and then drag your layer down

287

and to the right a little bit then tap the arrow

288

again to get out of here i think we could make

289

our shadow even a little bit darker very easy way to do

290

that is by going to the magic wand and to use saturation brightness

291

and turn down the brightness you can just play around with this let's go for 43

292

and then tap the magic wand again

293

and there you have your cute little zombie I hope you had fun

294

and I hope to see you next time for the next tutorial.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
