Don’t look at me.
Portrait practice is a good excuse to stare intently at Mr. Hiddleston’s face for half an hour, even if you’ll always end up frustrated that you couldn’t capture perfection.
Drawing with an italic nib is weird.
This was a doodle page to retest my Pilot Plumix fountain pen, which I have just reviewed here.
14 minutes. Reference.
This was inked with a new pen. I reviewed said new pen here.
Spoilers: THIS PEN IS AMAZING AND COST $1.50. HOW.
Progress photos for this piece. It’s less exciting before I blow up all the colors in Photoshop, huh? <_<
I like compiling these progress things here, but will probably continue to post the individual shots to Twitter as I take them. :o
This is still the best Renner face.
Picked up some graphite the other day. It has been forever since I’ve used non-mechanical pencils.
I don’t think there’s any question that using sharpened graphite sticks is better if your final work is graphite (like the difference between tech pens and brush), but I only really use pencil to sketch in prep for inks and/or watercolor, so using mechanical pencils made more sense/is cleaner. Graphite is messy, and I have a love/hate thing going with messy. I dunno.
Proportions are totally off in the second one, but I like how these turned out for the most part.
He looks like a vampire, oops. Reference. ~40 minutes, I think.
It doesn’t look anything like the reference, but I kind of like how this turned out anyway?
Go figure that the one time I think a portrait actually looks like David Tennant, I wasn’t freakin’ trying to paint David Tennant. 8| I need to stop elongating faces, ugh.
