Sometimes You Are

Hi! I hope this question doesn't bother you, but if I may ask, what is your sketch process when drawing faces? I admire how you draw side profiles and angles!

Lots of love ❤️

Thank you! I feel like I've explained this before but can't seem to find it properly with the tutorial tag here so eh

I don't really have a process, sometimes I just start with an eye or something and build from it, but if I had to explain the thought process it's roughly like this:

I rely a lot on anatomy planes and using simple shapes to know how they deform with each angle before going into detail on things like eyes, etc. Cheekbones, chin angle, eye sockets, etc

Nobody wants to hear this but it's also heavily linked to some understanding of the musculoskeletal system underneath 🙂‍↕️

5K notes and i come out as trans to my parents (tehe unrealistic for a reason 😊😊😊)

(inspo from @madambellepepper lmk if u want me to take this down)

If I hit 1,000 followers by the end of the month, I will do a high Ama (Ask me anything) Video. Spread the word so I can rebuild my dumb gay empire!!!

This meme is inescapable on French insta so I'm posting it here for all to enjoy

This is probably more ADHD related, but does anyone have advice for days when you just cannot get your brain to focus? I have work to do, I can't keep getting up, staring at the wall, forgetting what I was doing literally while doing it etc etc 😭

My face is having uncontrollable spasms. Great. It hurts really, really, really bad.

I think part of why I have trouble explaining pain to the doctor is when they ask about the pain scale I always think “Well, if someone threw me down a flight of stairs right now or punched me a few times, it would definitely hurt a lot more” so I end up saying a low number. I was reading an article that said that “10” is the most commonly reported number and that is baffling to me. When I woke up from surgery with an 8" incision in my body and I could hardly even speak, I was in the most horrific pain of my life but I said “6” because I thought “Well, if you hit me in the stomach, it would be worse.”

artist to another, HOW DO YOU DRAW SODE PROFILES THEY R SO HARD RRGRGHRGHHH

HII CHOKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh well, i was struggling with them as well, but now i find them really fun to draw!

Here are some guides! Hope it will help you! Don’t be afraid to draw profiles even if they don’t come out well. Keep pushing your skill and draw new things! Thats how you learn

Had an impromptu chat with @ushi418 about fashion history the other day- thought I’d post it here as a quick ref for people!

the suffering never ends
