Description This is my FIRST realism sketch after 2 years (I think??) of not drawing any portraits at all!! Completed just now.

Yesh, I'm sure you have seen this pose somewhere in the magazines before... it's the Redken female model!! And obviously she doesn't look like that because I've screwed up her face...!!!

I know I got proportion problem... >__< Ouughhh, must improve!! Practice more!

Hope you dun mind the weird white horizontal line at the paper... it was original done in A3 and uh.. as you know I had to scan 2 parts of it in an A4sized scanner.

Referenced used from a magazine.

This is simply gorgeous! The word "Redken" caught my eye because I'm a hairdresser; but I kept looking because the pic is so beautiful. You've a masterful grasp of what hair should look like.

Yup, Farlander's my friend. Yay! I have a classification! Abstract artist, I like that. I've only been that for 6 months or so, but I've been a "Hair Artist" for 6 years. Thanks for the watch, and you're welcome for the comments! Your gallery is great.

Great pencil work, like what you did with her hair. Can't sketch hair to save my life.

asukakanzaki In reply to DarthFar [2006-09-19 14:45:48 +0000 UTC]

But you draw GREAT bald black guys. Serious.

Anyways, about the hair, it takes practice. I hate shading really LONG hair though. Cuz you always have to stretch your pencil strokes longer and it's gotta be perfect or else it would suck. T__T

DarthFar In reply to asukakanzaki [2006-09-20 02:01:06 +0000 UTC]

So I should start drawing all my characters bald, huh? XD Hahahaha, that's actually a pretty funny idea. I should do a comic page of that.

And re hair: you notice that there aren't too many portraits of girls in my gallery? *That's* the reason why I don't draw more of them.

uiks.. didn't notice the white streak until u mention it and i tried hard to find it. *squinch eyes* Nice sketch. Personally love the way u did her hair. and those eyes are a killer~~ What pencil point did u use for sketching...?

Redken girl eh? Lemme guest her hair colour. oren + merah rite? betul tak? betul tak?? X3 I got psychic, haven't I?
ayez suka perasan-perasan~

asukakanzaki In reply to lazydragon [2006-09-19 14:43:51 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha. Am glad that the white streak wasn't that noticible. You gila woman you, betul betul pergi cari itu garis putih. XDDDD Cartoon lah you Ayez!

I used 2B pencil all the way. And my 2B pencil oso became so blunt till I had to sharpen it few times... then it become shorter and shorter pulak!!

Yeah, you are right about the Redken girl pic. YAHH. ANDA MEMANG PANDAI PUN!!! She memang got oren+merah hair. I think she's VERY pretty and it's a good photograph. One of my favs actually.

"Cartoon lah you Ayez"

Funny how i seems to be getting such remarks a lot lately. Ufufuuu.. begitu cartoonkah saya? @wO;; ouwhhhh noooeeee!!! how if one day they make an anime series out of me! fuiyooooOoo!! mesti bangga punya u coz befriend an anime/cartoon character. uyyeaahhh!!

eh.. melalut!

2B pencil onli ar! I thot u guys need to use much softer pencils than 2B for sketches. Last time during my archi-graphics class, I think I heard my lecturer said.. "apa ni, sketch guna 2B aje. go and buy 8B pencil laaa. darker one. can produce more soft strokes." and guess what, i check out the local artshop, they only have untill 6B. @wO;; siao la mana lecturer ni dapat 8B punya pencil!!! T____T

soft pencils do tends to tumpul easily with pressure. Pakai-pakai sampai kontot and then simpan buat collection. Pencil 4H all still panjang-panjang lagi. All B series kontot macam hobbit je. OoO


wah, betul ya that model got orange+red hair one!!
yeah, seperti yg ku jangka.
i got psychic power!! *hins hins*
bangga tahap syurga lapisan ke tujuh

Hahaha. Ayez, if they really make cartoon about you ah, sure kelakar one. Ketawa sampai bontot terpecah!

Anyways, yah, your lecturer is right. It's more advisable to use several types of pencils for shading rather than just 1. But I lazy so I use 2B oni. I oso got kena tegur by another lecturer for using 1 pencil oni what. Haha.

8B pencil you takleh dapat ke?? Ada satu kedai kat Sunway (behind my college, near Pyramid) called Vision Art. All the art stuff you can dapat there.

Just curious, you guys have to build up a house model or something like that for your assignments oso right??
