Description
My 5th tutorial's done!!!Click download to get the larger version.
I know what you're thinking:
'But... oh mighty =Cataclysm-X , why art thou submitting a tutorial which wasn't shown in thy poll?'
lol
Well... like this tutorial says: just 'cause.
Actually, I think it makes more sense if you read this tutorial before you'll see my next (upcoming) tutorials:
Besides, I'm looking for my muse. I lost it a week ago. I started with several drawings (actors, Kingdom Hearts...) but none of them look right.
Has anyone seen my muse anywhere? If you'll find it, you'll get a free cookie.
I used the work in progress files of my Jared Leto drawing to get this done.
I knew I could use those WIPs for something useful someday...
Anyway, have fun with this tutorial!! Hope you'll find it useful!!!

How do you get such dark lines/shading without the smudgy-graphite look? :/ I struggle so much with that.

I am just curious as to the time frame. I am working on a piece that is an old photo. Taken from about the 1930s with little detail. I am attempting to add detail that is not seen in the picture. I usually sketch on a grid type pattern starting with the right eye. You do very good work. Since I am not a portrait type artist, I figured I would thumb through your tutorials. Very informative.

I know this is a pointless question, but are you left handed?
I ask cause I start most of my portraits with the eyes on the right and i'm right handed, I seem to find the eye on the right side of the reference easier to draw.

When you draw someone from a reference picture, do you draw a grid on the whole paper first & reference picture? If not then how do you start the drawing off?

Amazing!!
But I have a little question...
To make the skin look gray, you first blend all with HB pencil or something like that??
I've seen that "effect" on a lot of drawings and I wish I could do it, but I don't know how :S
That's why I'm asking you
Hope you can help me out here

you are super talented to start with the eyes first then the rest.I usually do a perfect sketch of it and then shade ><
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I've heard it's a must to start with the eyes, but I don't...I know about the eye/mouth stuff that makes or breaks a drawing but I doubt you MUST start with the eyes. I like to move from one side of the face to the other sometimes after I created the skull or head outline. That's okay right?

Nice drawing! Just one question - how long does it usually take for you to draw a detailed picture like this? I imagine it's a long time!
