EDIT: Someday... someday, I'm going to do a better anime tutorial since this one is so ugly. D:

Okay, so I wanted to do this for a while, and I finally ended up doing it. It started off good and then I kind of just got lazy at the end. It took me while, nevertheless. I put it under the digital art category merely because I drew it in Photoshop CS2, but you can use this for traditional drawings tool. Some of the drawings I really don't like, but I'm not going to spend more time on it when it already took me a few hours to do. Also, if I add more information to the tutorial, it'll be WAY too long. Therefore, I hope it's helpful the way it is.

Eyes are what I started off drawing. And even then, sometimes they're still the first thing I draw. xD

I think erasing the middle is for that little piece on the top lip that points out and/or down (...does that have a name?). It breaks the line of your top and bottom lip meeting.

what program do you use? I am having difficulties making my lines straight and pretty like that without the pen tool (I'm using Photoshop).

Thanks for the tutorial, by the way. Helping soooo much, even if I'm failing with the pretty lines.

ember-snow In reply to midnightwillow11195 [2012-08-06 09:56:31 +0000 UTC]

For this tutorial, I used Photoshop CS2. But now I use Paint Tool SAI to draw.

You're very welcome! Glad it could help you. And SAI is great; hope you can get it soon.
