Description Finished sometime in March I think can't really remember.

After reading and watching the movie of Memoires of a Geisha I decided to draw a pic of Chiyo transforming into Sayuri. First time ever do a design on a piece of clothing and right here is where I actually started to shade in the hair trying to capture each strand but as you can tell it didn't work out as I had planned lol

Shaded with 0.5mm mechanical pencil, blended with soft bristle paintbrush and q-tip

well i know what you mean, its jsut a technique. However its not etched in stone. Mostly all art is drawn different by everyone, we cant follow a rule. My advice is just do what works for you and it will improve naturally.

I still can't understand how they use those shapes to draw people I try using it but it just makes them look animeish or cartoonish instead of humanish
