Description Hi there! It's been a while

Lost the mood for drawing again,, It's been happening alot lately. But now I'm Back!

I'm testing a new paper again. Not really sure what it is called, but I like it a lot so far! The woman who frames my work gave it to me.

I hope you can see who it is!

I will probably scan it next time...

thank you! the thing about drawing white hair is that you don't actually draw the hair. You draw everything between the hair and use the white in the paper to act as hair

question. do you have any advice for getting the face to be in the right proportions? i have trouble getting the distance between the eyes and the nose and lips right. any tips on how to improve this?

Per-Svanstrom In reply to Bizzare-Freak [2008-09-22 11:11:56 +0000 UTC]

You can measure with a ruler to get the proportions right, or maybe a grid or something.

i have a question, do u use somethin specific to whiten some areas ?

Per-Svanstrom In reply to Fatmalovestodraw [2008-03-14 19:07:14 +0000 UTC]

no not really. The white areas is the color of the paper. The only thing specific I use is a kneaded eraser instead of a normal one.

Avril Lavigne though I don't like her, this drawing is looking so beautiful already!!!

Good paper is hard to find these days. I'm desperately looking for something good but so far I didn't succeed hmm

Per-Svanstrom In reply to Cataclysm-X [2008-03-13 23:21:01 +0000 UTC]

Yep! what's not to like? she's beautiful and she can sing

Your paper seems to suit your style though I'm liking this paper very much so far,, I will also try to draw a closeup or something, and if that works out well I'll keep using it for sure!

hehe I knew I wasn't the only one.

Keep it up, I'm diggin the work you do. I'm a comic guy(to generalize) so I realize and respect the visual attention it takes to capture the realism you can get onto paper. Kudos man.

ill-fenomeno [2008-03-13 10:23:18 +0000 UTC]

Wow. Again, this is one great WIP. Even in this state if it were a finished piece this would be great.

Question: Maybe in a future WIP can you show us how your work ethic is? I'd love to see how you start off and what preperations you make.

Keep up the good work.

Per-Svanstrom In reply to ill-fenomeno [2008-03-13 23:15:02 +0000 UTC]

well Thank you!

Yes I have promised my watchers that I will make a tutorial one day.. and that would include how I start a drawing. This drawing was just an impulse, so I don't have so many pictures of how I'm making it. Just a couple before this one.

Per-Svanstrom In reply to JawadSparda [2008-03-14 19:36:50 +0000 UTC]
