Re: Project Yuna!

It looks like you're off to a good start! :D

One thing to keep in mind is that artists use sketches and make guidelines when drawing. Sketching out guidelines will help you make sure your anatomy is proportional, and anatomy is really the heart and soul of portrait drawing. One of the other important skills is learning how to sketch so that you can quickly and easily make adjustments and reposition features. (Sketching is pretty cut and dry. Keep your strokes as light as possible and smooth. Make your lines even, not jaggy. Its hard at first but you get the hang of it pretty quick.)

Here's two tutorials that show the very basic lines of proportion of the human face. (Obviously every face is different, but they all average out to follow these ratios.)

This first tutorial gives some basic tips for drawing, and includes really clear images of those guidelines I mentioned. ;) Majnouna also has a lot of other great tutorials for more advanced artists.

And this tutorial shows how you go from those basic guidelines to a finished work.

Super helpful stuff. Thank you so, so much! I love all of this information on proportions. It's definitely something I have a hard time with, but only because I haven't quite done anything past wild guesses.

Thank you again!!
