They always look sort of creepy and alien like to me but I’m into it. I’m stubborn enough to work at the same image until it starts looking the way I want it to. I’m still practicing everyday to get better because I’m not where I want to be with head shapes and drawing images that are facing forward.
My main goal for competing this face is to use it as a blank canvas for coloring and character design. I find myself devoting hours to painting skin, playing around with makeup ideas and hair. I’ll be sure to devote my next post to several different looks I can accomplish using this face.
As always, my sketches are drawn on the iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil using the Procreate App.
I started off using the hemp brush tool that’s listed under the organic brush tools.
For those of you who are familiar with how I draw and have watched some of my time lapse drawings, you’ve probably noticed that I usually start my drawings with an eye or an eyebrow. It’s bizarre for me to sketch out a rough head shape but again, I’m trying to master something that I’m not strong at.
I then went in with a second layer to add further details with my pencil p4 brush which was downloaded from the Procreate forum.
I pinched the screen on my iPad to zoom in and started to softly pencil in detailed facial features in the eyes, nose and lips. I drew in the brows like I normally would too. I wanted to get the facial features to a point where I was happy then I could select everything and center it on the head.
The last thing I did was liquify. It’s my new favorite tool from the latest update for Procreate. This head shape went from being super blocky to having more curves.
