Description I love faces, I could draw just heads, maybe heads plus necks, who needs more body parts x'D

This is contest prize for
He should looks like a villain, I don't know if I managed to show that but besides this one thing I am proud of it, I hope you like it, too!
I'm still using default brushes but this time it wasn't a round one but something with lots of dots so it's less soft I guess

This settles it. YOU MA'M ARE DEEMED CRAZY XDXDXD
That shadiiiing hooow?

I agree so much with drawing heads though, I love it so much;
and disagree a lot on hands.
I love having them, but drawing hands is just another form of making people go insane ^^

YES, I'M CRAZY, SO WHAT? XD
And really, this wasn't that difficult as it may looks, I had this reference encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/ima…
And it took me less time than donut gif xD
Yess, someone who understand my love for heads! XD you're right, hands don't want to be friends with us, I think especially man's hands hates me x'D

THE CRAZE IS UPON US X'D
In all seriousness, it's really fun meeting so many different outstanding people on DA

True, using reference material is always a good idea and helps out a lot,
but still damn, that's a lot of shading you did there and it looks really nice.

Man's hands are.... idk I have up on them XD they are somehow more
rectangle-ish, but still round, and have more definition.... aaaaaarrgh

Thanks thanks
You see! We have hands with us everytime, we know them in theory but they won't reveal secret how to draw them- OHHH, I had a great thought, I know now, hands are like camera, we draw/photo WITH them so we can't draw/photo THEM, that makes sense, I was a genius for a couple of seconds

It's good he makes that impression tho his scar is because of accident in childhood :3

You're welcome! ;D Ah, of course - the artist is always the most sceptical about own art XD But I agree, practice never hurts!

nahomira In reply to MyrielLachance [2018-03-10 09:14:36 +0000 UTC]

Yes but because we're sceptical we can work on our mistakes, right? I should also finally find my style. Every time I see a nice drawing I want to draw in it's author style, I was learning anime style, cartoon, realistic, disney, some 3D animations, and more I think, but I am still not sure which one is the best for me :c

MyrielLachance In reply to nahomira [2018-03-10 09:32:46 +0000 UTC]

True. Ah, don't worry too much about it. Of course it's understandable that you want to find your own style but it shouldn't just be about that. Maybe one day you'll find a style that sticks to you and that you're comfortable with. I think it's okay to be an artist that has many styles, some of them refined, some not. Of course it's not going to be a case of: 'oh, i recognize that style, it's from nahomira!' when you have a diverse artstyle. ^^' But I think that with enough patience, with enough practicing, you will find your own style ^^ just don't focus too much on it.

WOAH THIS LOOKS SO COOL! <3

I love the detail on the face, it really pops out nicely! The purple in the hair was a nice choice! and THAT SCAR! Β 


Here's some context for anyone that's confused:Β  I didn't have an OC, so for my contest prize, I made up the following character description for nahomira to draw:

Body:
- Taller than average, but not extremely tall
- A little bit slim
Face:
- Angular facial details
- Scar under right eye (silly accident from childhood)
- A face that makes the viewer think β€œmovie villain”
Clothing:
- The character likes to dress up
- Tends to wear dark, yet bold colors. For example, dark greens, blues, purples or reds.
- Clothing is covered in abstract patterns.
Hair:
- Slicked back and to the side
- Short to medium length
- Streak of color that matches the color of their clothing.
Personality:
- Often mistaken for a villain based on appearance
- Usually kind, though sometimes can be selfish
- A little out of touch with reality
- Often lost in thought

I was specific in some aspects of the character, yet purposefully vague in others. I wanted to see what Naho would make. I'm quite impressed with the results!!

As for naming this character... I might have to think about this for a while haha. Names are hard.

nahomira In reply to ptrgags [2018-03-10 08:57:10 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I agree names are hard, the bigger choice you have the harder it is to choose one xD
Thank you so much, I'm happy you like it!
About scar, first I couldn't get it to look right but then I thought that maybe not the shape is wrong but it's brightness and actually that was it because when I switched to black and white and then draw scar, it looked so much better. I think I learned something, yay
