Description Scrap. I swear, this site does my head in. Basically ive posted nothing for a month ... yeah? so ... hrm, i come back, starting to post stuff. and once a fucking gain, the place starts crashing left right and centre. Or is it just me experiencing it? is it liek "oh, hes trying to use the site, press the "disable oni's pc" button cos i swear ... -_-!

Uhm, yeah, as the title says - hair. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yup! I do this kinda shit all the time - the problem is, i do lots of lineart like this, but i dont really like uploading lineart on a regular basis. If i uploaded everything that i did, id be uploading 90% lineart and ... thats just not me. Although its arguable that it IS me, because i do loads of it (heh) but, im only doing it because im still in a heavy learning stage.

this is hair ... but for me, it was as much to do with the faces as the hair. Faces are ... something ive always struggled with, so, i do actually spend a lot of time trying to sort it all out in my head (replacing what i thought i knew about faces with reality XD. Holidays are good because ... they let me actually spend some time doing stuff - solid time. I remember specifically in Year3, my teacher saying that i was strongest in art, but that i should draw more humans (all i used to draw is cars, planes, stuff like that XD). I should have listened to them, but unfortunately when youre 7 years old, you dont really think too far ahead.

Mmmmm, all comments welcome and appreciated!

i have a problem drawing people too. if i try hard it can come out pretty decent, but people were never my favorite thing to draw. just monsters, demons, robots, and whatever else my imagination would dish out.

Those darn art teachers. Darn seven year oldness. Darn hair!
Hair is so difficult.
(It's nice to see "practice" stuff once in a while. It can be very instructive for those who see it!)

Oh no, DA hates you Hopefully it won't start to hate me too... My e-mail hates me already.
Anyway, great pic. It is very bright though..Did you have to use higher contrast? Hmm? I love that you can do so many different looking faces. All my faces look exactly same (male or female, it doesn't matter).

LoooL... I think it happens to you mate, it rarely crashes when I try to upload something! Maybe you should check with customer "services".

Anyway.. I feel like I am in a beauty salon with all this hair! hehe

really well done! I do lineart all the time, its all I ever do, I wish I could say I did more...need more resources. *sighs*

Other then that I love the ever so slight expression each holds to its unique likeness. I do like the distinguishable character of each face, you are doing fantastic! I have been drawing for a year and only draw people and I have a long way to go!!

Your stuff definitely inspires me to sketch on a more regular basis.....mmmmmm....work is getting dull....anyways, do keep up the amazing talent you have!

haha, 7 XD.

The 3/4 girl with the weird goggles ( i hope its a girl and i'm not making a huge mistake here) looks uncannily like a really poor likeness sketch i once did (but never showed ) from a lost in translation poster. similar nose angle and eyes, haha. Its weird looking at it.

My fave in this is the girl on the top row with the hair covering her eyes. splendid lips and nose

lol ... erm, i was being nasty? you said "shame" as in, it was a bad thing that it was so bright! XD so rather than ... you thinking that its bright cos i like it like that, i was explaining its because the lines are so light, i have to whack the contrast right up just so you can see them. thas all!
