Description Full-view, please.

For who asked me to help with drawing Vexen's anatomy. Only, this turned out more as a tutorial than anything XD I hope it's helpful, though.

Keep in mind that this is NOT, in ANY WAY, trying to tell people how they should draw Vexen. As far as I'm concerned, there is no "right way". This is simply in hopes of helping people who want a little advice.

I don't think I need to mature this; but if you disagree, please let me know.

Wow! Looks awesome! What kind of pencil did you use to start with the basic shapes?

Daina In reply to QuinAlagrose [2008-04-18 20:53:22 +0000 UTC]

I did it all with the pencil option on open Canvas. XD I simply used blue instead of black. I always do that with my drafts to keep the lines from getting mixed up.

Daina In reply to LarcSakurai [2008-04-17 15:55:24 +0000 UTC]

*cracks up* XD I adore Vexen's hips. They were just made for man-handling.

Well how ironic! I've had troubles with Vexie too...

And I almost had to look in the mirror!

Daina In reply to 456vlz [2008-04-15 12:30:43 +0000 UTC]

Looking in the mirror is good! I do that a lot. Or take pictures of certain body parts from certain angles to use as reference.

darkandeadly [2008-04-14 19:52:56 +0000 UTC]

Oh Christ. *nosebleed*
That wasn't supposed to happen...

I find Vexen's facical outline to be problematic, mostly because of his insanely high and defined cheekbones. D:

Daina In reply to darkandeadly [2008-04-15 12:31:55 +0000 UTC]

*offers napkins* XD

Yes, those cheekbones do cause problems. Instinctually you want to make them rounder and cuter, but then you realize NO! He's not round and cute XD

Daina In reply to AteMozzarella [2008-04-14 11:39:55 +0000 UTC]

XD I'll probably end up doing one of these for Marly, too. But I don't think I'd do anyone else.

Desopilar [2008-04-14 01:38:39 +0000 UTC]

lol. I never noticed how much Vexen has the body shape of a girl. lol. No offense to your drawing or anything like that. Just his bony structure and long hair. XD

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Daina In reply to Desopilar [2008-04-14 02:19:29 +0000 UTC]

XD Yes, he is fairly effeminate. Though he does have a fairly broad upper body, his waist is so tiny!

Desopilar In reply to Daina [2008-04-20 00:42:49 +0000 UTC]

XD Makes it easier to shop for clothes. Everything is too big. Easily fixed with a needle and thread, and no returns needed. No need to save receits.

You should make a how-to-draw Marluxia one too. owo I always have trouble with Marly's complicated hair. xD

Daina In reply to pikafreak [2008-04-14 00:13:23 +0000 UTC]

Oooh! you're right on the angle-part! I also noticed lately, that his head kinda gets smaller from forehead to chin, either that, or his hair makes it appear that way
