Description Hey guys, this is my second Joker Sketch, hope y'all like this one. I darkened the shades but i think it still needs some more in some areas.

I used a Mongol No. 2 Pencil for this piece. plus tissues, and an eraser. lol

Thanks for checking this out!

way back i used to smudge the drawings , very messy and dirty ...
i even used my finger tips to blend the shaded area lol but i learned alot joining groups and comparing works in DA ,... so i would suggest you do the same.

This is great. The shadow under the nose could be a little darker, but everything else in this piece is great (especially the hair). You've captured the charismatic side of the Joker very well, I think.

Thank you so much, i agree that some parts need some darkening. But thanks for pointing that out. I appreciate it.

Heey master of pencil.

You've made the joker a lot more attractive than he is 8|

I think you did good with the hair by the way.

nice pic man! I agree with Fallencypt that more detail in the eyes will make this really stand out and give it a moodier look! nicely done. I like the texture you put into this and the hair looks great. and you kept the light source consistent on this one as well. I can see vast improvement on this one as well!! just a great job man!!

Fallencypt [2008-09-02 15:34:38 +0000 UTC]

WOa! you are more talented than I thought. You have improved so much from the last piece. The value changes increase, as well as the face anatomy accuracy!

I bet u hate drawing the hair too Feel the pain! argh!! But u still go for it! Salute!

Lets share with you something if u are looking forward to achieve more realistic sketch, here is some of my learning revealed, Bweeehold!

1. Keep the burger hot. Keep sketching things that u like. Those object or reference shall 100% match your taste of art! (very important) cause god has made different kind of artist, and you certainly have your own art-sense. Finding the truth of your art-sense with PASSION is the only way to bring u far.

2. Quality of the paper. If u want ur work to be very hi-resolution (detail in big area) then u have to look for special kind of paper- thinner fiber one. In Malaysia, they called it layout pad. Reeves brand is just fine. Or you probably want to draw it big. Either way will increase your capability to fill in more details.

3. Find your own set of Pencil tone. Sooner u will lust deeper dept of value. You will need your own range of pencil army. My preference HB, 2B, 3B, 6B Faber Castle. Don't get too many. Between them u just have to use more or less muscle. (If you going for vein charcoal ignore this one) Charcoal rely more on smudging skill alone.

4. Put more heart into middle tone variation. The complete white part and complete dark in a good picture is necessary, but it should stay minor. Use bendable to create highlight detail. But the main Highlight, u should use leave-it-white method.

5. Make sure u layered a piece of paper between ur sketching hand and the paper. Otherwise it would contribute lotz lotz of unnecessary smudge.

6. In a good picture, there must be a focal area. A focal area is the area that u put on more detailed toning and texture. On this piece, it would be great if u just made more detail in the eye. That would give the picture more spirit.

7. For the hair... find a way, or use microscope to carry out more toning changes. Without the subtle toning changes your hair will look graphic.

phew... I wish I can share more with u Jeramie but I will called it a day first. you are a talented artist. Keep moving on.

OMG! thank you so much "Fallencypt!!!" This is really inspiring! i will most certainly keep your tips in mind.

You were right bout the hair! i was getting all dizzy shading it , i hope it looks ok.

And for the pencils, unfortunately, i only have one for now(and the cheap one at that), haven't got the time and money to buy some quality pencils, but i will buy some probably next week.

Oh my, I'm stunned, i never expected my stuff would be any good. But I'm so glad you think I'm improving. I'll try my hardest in every piece i'll work on.

Thanks again sensei!

This looks awesome man! You really like the Joker, huh? Me too xD You should have seen my schoolbooks after I saw the Dark Knight; they were scribbled with the little Joker-symbol-face-thing xD

Anyway, good job on this! It's looking awesome, can't wait till it's finished
