Drawing Supplies I Used To Draw This Mountain Landscape
To make this mountain range drawing, I used Ohuhu Honolulu markers in the colors E030 Pink Flamingo, V050 Pearl Violet, V060 Amethyst, V450 Dark Lavender, 120 Black, V322 Rain Flower Purple, and 0 Colorless Blender.
If you're on a tighter budget, these Caliart markers seem like a good and cheap alternative.
I made this drawing using my favorite marker paper: Canson Illustration Manga.
How To Draw A Mountain Landscape?
Step 1: Sketch Mountain In The Foreground
To sketch a mountain landscape, I first sketched the mountain in the foreground.
This mountain is very close which makes the shapes rounder.
I sketched a diagonal line from the left down to the bottom of the paper. I made this line a little bit wavy as the edges of mountains usually are a little uneven.
I also added this smaller hill on the right.
Step 2: Sketch The Mountains In The Background
Next, I sketched the mountain range furthest away. And because it is so far away you can see way more of the sharp edges that it has.
To recreate this, I sketched a line that goes up and down with multiple sharp points.
Step 3: Sketch The Mountain Layers In Between The Fore And Background
After that, I sketched the 2 mountain layers in between the foreground and the background.
I first sketched one that is higher on the left and then goes down.
Then, I sketched one on the right.
I again used sharp corners and points in these lines.
Step 4: Color The Mountain Range With Markers
After that, I colored in the mountain range. I wanted to color the mountain landscape using colors that you'll see during sunset. To do this, I made the mountains purple.
I first colored the mountain layer furthest back as it is the lightest.
To do this I used a medium purple color: V050 Pearl Violet.
Next, I colored the small mountain on the right with V060 Amethyst.
And I colored the mountain layer in the middle with V450 Dark Lavender.
Lastly, I colored the mountains in the foreground with 120 Black.
Step 5: Color The Sky
After that, I colored the sky.
As I wanted to colors to look more sunset-like, I colored the sky orangy pink using E030 Pink Flamingo.
I then added some lighter cloud shapes in this orangy pink using the colorless blender. The ink of the blender pushes the orange ink away creating lighter spots.
Lastly, I added some shadows on the clouds in the top half of the sky using V322 Rain Flower Purple.
And that's how I drew this mountain landscape during sunset.
