• Drawing from reference is your friend! If you can find life references to go from, fucking GO HAM. Study the shit out of that, the best way to mimic something is to watch it in action. This was put together very quickly but I made sure to do a couple google image searches while I was doing this to see if I was getting the right ideas. This still isn’t perfect. I’m not perfect, I can be wrong! 
• ALSO: Do yourself a favor and look up stuff about Blood Pattern Analysis, I found This PDF while fact-checking and that gives a good overview of the basics, though you can probably find even more extensive information with a good google search. Forensic scientists use this all the time as a crime-solving tool and you bet your hiney there’s gonna be resources out there documenting the information. These make handy reference tools!
• Menstrual blood was added for educational purposes, I don’t know if you’d necessarily be DRAWING it but if you have a period, it might be something you see regularly and might want to observe. In that case, I tried to document what’d make the composition different because it IS pretty different than blood coming from the rest of the body, if only because it’s usually seen with tissue or other fluid.
• Please fullview these if you have trouble reading my handwriting i tried to do these at a high-resolution for that reason
