Realistic Portrait - Blog Posts

Portrait of my character Ergan/Small, I like how it turned out, it looks better than I expected, although I still wish I could improve the hair XD I don't know why I decided to give him one of the most difficult types of hair to paint.

Hey, I was at my aunt's house, and I was very bored, I wasn't quite sure what to do, so I decided to do a quick painting study. I was trying something different, and it was not paying so much attention to the texture of the fur, so I forced myself to use a single brush to paint everything, like trying to add small accents with other colors. My second rule was to keep it simple, and not add too much detail, but I guess I didn't quite make it ^^" well, it's less detail than I usually do. What do you think?

Well right now one of my chickens, and my quail are sick and I'm kind of sad to think about what to say but here is a portrait I've been working on these last 3 days. I was practicing on how to draw human faces and I decided to make a realistic portrait, but then I remembereddon't know how to render skin XD, I'm more used to painting fur. I decided to try to paint a portrait of Egan, or Small, because I haven't drawn him for a long time. I also want to update the reference sheet of Small, and Amranth. Here he looks more like a red head, but I'm still not sure what hair color I'll give him, since I don't like the hair color I originally used :b the same with Amaranth, I'll change his color palette a bit. Well, I hope it looks good, I know the proportions look a bit off, but I changed the position of the face as I worked, and that's why now it looks kind of weird.

Portrait with beautiful shadows 😌

Last one of the series of drawings that I made this one was exceptionally hard because of the stripes I procrastinated a lot when making it and I almost thought about quitting but I kept going if you’re wondering where are the shoes so am I but they were not visible in the photo so I just didn’t draw any …

One thing that I love about drawing with pencil is how you can always erase your mistakes sometimes there will be marks left but that still gives you a lot of room to change stuff and I do that a lot in my process

Another full body drawing last one didn’t do very well (as if any of my post ever did but it got like one like which is exceptionally bad) so I’ll probably repost it later but basically it’s one of 3 drawings (maybe I’ll do more in the future) of women who dress like me in baggy loose clothes which I don’t see represented in art enough. The process of making them was pretty tedious with all the details and different textures but I was motivated to finish them and the feeling that I got at the end … let me tell you the best thing ever

This is one of the three drawings in a series that I made some time ago, I will post the other 2 soon and possibly make more, creating them was a challenge because they are full body drawings and not just portraits with tons of detail and different textures but I wanted to try something new. I wanted to draw women who wear baggy and oversized clothes because I like to dress like this and I don’t see women like me represented in art enough so these drawings mean a lot to me
