Description Well hey, I was in fact so inspired that I took 's request for a tutorial and made one. Yay!

This is not supposed to teach you how to shade or paint - it's to give you some guidance on how to get started with the symmetry-practice.
I hope it's not too wordy or abrupt, Im not too good at this. :C

Edit: Oh right, I forgot!
I got the brushes I use from here:

To be more precise, it's not my idea originally, it's something adapted from a method concept artists sometimes use to get new ideas. (silhouettes + symmetry)

Lurking around in the darker corners of the mines/your mouth.
Might not be fun.

No problem. Really, it's not that useful for anything but practice, since concept artists need to put out a lot more variations on one theme, and they have to do it quicker than the coloring of these takes.
I suppose it's best used for getting inspired and creative?
