No, as I said, it was only pen work. One of those cheap and crappy blue ink pens?! I like to make sketches with those!
I see that pic really had success^^ And just in case, the color is blue, it's the picture I took that makes it look purlple

Normally people draw the head shape first and then it's features, but I usually do the opposite. I don't think it can be said to be wrong, it is just the way I started doing and the way that now I'm more confortable of doing. After I drew her eyes nose and mouth, I draw the face shape, and finall the hair, always with a light touch on the pen. It's after that that I start adding details such as coloring the eyes and adding some shadow (though there's not much on this one). The hair really was a pain to do, though it's the procedure I take when doing it with pencil... But as the head was big and everything! To do hair like that you just got to be patient, really! One hair at a time, not coloring all that surface with one color tone... One by one always paying attention to the direction of course. In the end that's the result. And that's it!

Hey, so my thread's name is changed! Thanks Die Tod von Euch!

Ookami-chan! That crunched muzzle thingy (lol) did you mean something like 'the nose's too short' ? 'Cause if you did, you're right! I'll try to get it right next time I draw Makoto

This thing is taking too long to conclude, because I'm already getting tired of painting it! (this lazziness is unstoppable! eheh) Anyhow, I'm keeping it up with the slight problem that my black color pencil is like, very short and I really need a lot of it to paint Morita (the boy) I went to buy a new one, but couldn't find the color! My friend's birthday is today and I don't have this finished yet! I guess I'll just have to make the best I can 'till this evening, and I'll show him later what's already done!

As for you mE., I'll fill out your request as soon as I can!

Peace~

Thanks. The last time you showed me how too draw faces from the side view, it really helped me improve my drawings look a lot better now. I'll post new stuff in soon.
As for these they tuts they are helpful. Just one question about drawing super old people where do I put the wrinkles (if I add just around the mouth they look like old kids)?

**ore wA Tenshi** · 02-05-2007 12:07 PM

Thanks Dulx! And I most certainly will!
Thanks Ookami and mE., I'm glad those could help you!

Ok mE., here go some tips to draw old people... Hope it'll help as well...
Any other questions, just ask!

I'll be posting soon a portrait from Kyo (Dir en Grey vocalist). I started drawing it Saturday when I went to a J-rock event and bought a poster of the band. I leave the link to the picture so you can compare it later with my drawing.

Peace~

Thanks.
No more questions for now (I bet you have other things to do than draw tuts for mE ^_^).

Hmm. I know your portrait of Kyo is going to be awesome because your pics look photo realistic.

**ore wA Tenshi** · 02-06-2007 09:25 AM

So here goes Kyo's portrait, and the last pic I took from that wolf drawing... I won't be posting any more pictures till it's finished and scanned, so yeah, it may take a while!

....*dies from the detail on the first picture*

omg....your the best artist ever.....X____________X

**ore wA Tenshi** · 02-06-2007 08:29 PM

Thanks dulx, mE., Whispers (how have you been doing? long time no see

) and Ookami, really!

dulx, you don't need to be jealous! You're such a talented artist!
My original style is realism really. It has a year and some changes when I started watching and drawing anime stuff... Yet I don't really draw anime style; I rather mix up the styles, realism and cartoon, not letting any of them behind... If I stop practicing any of those I may lose the "touch". Anyways... it really was practice^^
Kyo's portrait was made with graphite apart from the eye on which I used color pencils. On Morita & Makoto's picture I'm also using color pencils... That's really the only method I use to color my stuff^^

Ookami that's too much lol xD But thank you!

Peace~

**Anjiru Ookami** · 02-07-2007 12:23 PM

NO! its not too much!!!! its not enough!!!! you are god!!!! *BOWS*

**ore wA Tenshi** · 02-07-2007 10:08 PM

Anyways, I just noticed I wrote 2006 on the portrait's date xD I'm really not O.K.! lol
