Ah, this tutorial is really helpful! I tried to draw hair so often, but I always fail.
Maybe IΒ΄m just too impatient ;].

Thanks for this tut.

Uhm yes... My newest drawing^^... But I donΒ΄t have another you could compare with, because I just upload drawings which I like^^. (Although I donΒ΄t like my newest drawing so much <_<...xD)

[link]

This is kinda embarassing, IΒ΄m still practising to draw realistic people^^!

Oh and if you have some tips (especially for drawing the hair) just leave a comment =]. Thanks^^.

Ah, do you really think so =O?! Thanks^^.

Your gallery is fascinating! You must have practised a lot^^. I want to improve myself, too. I draw nearly everyday ^^.

Ah, sorry. IΒ΄m kinda annoying^^, IΒ΄m talking too much ._.!

Obi-quiet In reply to BenFreaky [2009-06-23 20:31:03 +0000 UTC]

I draw every single day, sometimes for hours on end. I really need to make that hours a day EVERY day...

Wow, thatΒ΄s amazing! I often donΒ΄t have the time to draw, because of school. Sometimes I canΒ΄t draw for weeks!!... But I think itΒ΄s totally important to practise every day.

Professionals practice every day, Olympians practice every day, if I want to take on the world, I gotta do it every day, right? If I don't know what to draw, I go back to basics, and just sketch skeletons and bodies.

BenFreaky In reply to Obi-quiet [2009-06-24 20:53:17 +0000 UTC]

Yes, thatΒ΄s true. But I think when you practise too much, just because you want to improve yourself, then you could lose the fun of drawing^^. IΒ΄d like to say much more about this, but I canΒ΄t really verbalize it -.-. *german X_X*

Obi-quiet In reply to BenFreaky [2009-06-26 03:10:55 +0000 UTC]

True, but at the same time, if I just keep my pencil moving, then I find it never really becomes a chore.

Haha, yeah I know what you mean^^. But just recently IΒ΄m a bit frustrated, because nothing goes right o.Γ΄. Then I always stop drawing for a few hours or for one day... xD
I have a loooot of time to draw now ^-^, my summer vacations started yesterday XD!!

Well,sometimes it is good to take a break. Professional artists get around that by having warm up exercises they do every day.

I did it really quickly and didn't spend any real time on it.

X) eh well lol

Sharing techniques is always commendable, some people are for some reason very secretive about how they do things, which makes no sense to me whatsoever.

I don't suppose you could expand this tutorial on how to do hair pulled away from the face, or hair in braids? As is this is very helpful

It can be a pain sometimes , but once you establish a light source then it makes it much easier.

Hey, very nice. I've come to the conclusion that long hair is in many ways easier than short hair also. hehe but this helps quite a lot.
