Obviously not done yet as I need to fix and finish quite a few details , but this is where I’m at rn!!
Sorry for the weird angle and lighting I’m like half asleep currently 😭💔😔
Did I do him enough justice so far? :)
So I 3D printed the reki figure design and I’m just in the process of painting it for their birthday!!
What do you think?😋
These past two weeks istg I’ve been practicing portraits like no tomorrow
It’s honestly rare for me to ever find the motivation to do more than one of something so I just wanted to share my progress before I move on from portraiture :)
I’m backkkkk!!!
Genuinely has zero idea how to shade this piece so I got stuck for a while , but it’s finally finishedddd
As always advice is welcome and GREATLY appreciated!!!
I thought I’d compare my latest piece to my first EVER human portrait and get your thoughts on my progress… send help 2023 me was not it 😭😭😭
Anywho… who do you think this is!
Okay so I’ve mentioned in this thread before that I’m practicing people more often since I never really used to ,but figured I had some spare time so why not?
This is the one I finished today and as always advice is welcomed and MASSIVELY appreciated
PS someone asked me on another post why post my art here as I don’t seem like a beginner, and that’s true I have drawn before but never a person and I’m using my skill I have for animals and trying to apply it to human proportions so I’m completely new to human portraiture !! Hope that clears some things up :)
I have taken quite a liking to practicing human proportions , expressions and overall face recently when I never used to
I think as of now this is the fourth human portrait I have ever done but I think I’ll be practicing a lot more now ( cause you can always improve :3 )
In one of my other posts I mentioned not really taking the time to practice proportions properly on people, but I want to broaden my skill set as I usually only do pet portraits so this is good for me
As always advice is welcomed and greatly appreciated !! Thank you
PS: I do try for realism but I do have a slightly more stylised way of drawing so it’s not exact to my reference yet sadly :(
Took 3 and a bit hours!! Excluding hair cuz I lost motivation by then so I jst shaded it 😭😭😬
It’s not even funny I had just finished the base sketch and I was already loosing the motivation to finish 😭😭
BUT I did- say hi to Monty!! :)
( and at least the buyer is happy!!)
I’ve been wondering what everyone else uses to style layers , or what you would recommend!!
Just finished the base sketch for this animal portrait , but there’s still a long long way to go and I’m already loosing motivation… 😭😭😭
PLEASE FORCE ME INTO FINISHING IT IN THE COMMENTS!!
Okay so I was looking through my art gallery in photos and came across THIS pumpkin , I did this a while ago -probably near last Halloween, so I think I’ve improved since then and was considering redrawing+repainting another piece based off of this ( as this was for a school project and I couldn’t keep it sadly ) BUT I need some advice on how to up my shading game as it looks a bit flat in my opinion
Any advice would be greatly appreciated and I’m excited to hear your thoughts!!
PS - this was halfway finished but I can’t seem to find the finished product so this is all I have :( hope that’s okay !!
I rarely ever draw people but I thought why not give it another try since I haven’t done it in a while.
I think this is the third time I’ve drawn a person as I usually draw animals instead, so I don’t necessarily practice much and was looking for some advice/ tips on how to improve my facial expressions for future projects!!
I’m currently 14-15 and people say I have skill for my age, but I believe there’s always room to improve so anything would be greatly appreciated :)
This took probably around 2 hours ish ( including some short breaks ) , but frankly I kinda lost motivation by the time shading the hair came around so it doesn’t really have much depth but I’m okay with that
Again any tips would be a massive help, but honestly not to bad for my third portrait I think!!
