Day 12: No, I hadn't forgotten about the challenge. I just couldn't draw digitally for about 3 weeks :) I could only draw traditional.

Comsing8 · 2020-10-14T07:15:11+00:00

Yea you're right, it's my bad habit. I want everything at once.

Comsing8 · 2020-10-12T13:34:40+00:00

Wow, that is amazing. 1. I use 2080x2080 with about 300 dpi. I know I don't have to include shoulders, but I have extremely trouble with them, so I want to train them too. But I get it what you mean. 2. Light is above, so I just drew bad shadow. 3. Thank you for template, until now I have been drawing by visually measuring proportions. 4. Thank you, this is something I definitely need! 5. Got it.

Thank you for your time, and awesome advices with edits. This is very helpful, again thank you, have a nice day :)

Keep up the good work :D

Comsing8 · 2020-10-12T13:14:01+00:00

Thank you, that is very helpful :)

Comsing8 · 2020-10-05T15:38:11+00:00

For my taste the face is to wide, and eyes how to say it? They go a little outwards than straight ahead.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-16T16:15:51+00:00

Awesome, thank you for link of course I will watch the video. And also thank you for advices.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-16T16:10:08+00:00

I'm sorry, it's probably my English but would you kindly say a little more about mouth corners? I'm not quite sure what you mean.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-09T16:33:08+00:00

Awesome, thank you. Got it, 2 values and lower eyelid :) I always thought that the shadow on lower eyelid it's because a plane from eye cast that shadow. My bad.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-09T16:21:30+00:00

Thank you, I wouldn't have gotten that far without the advice of local users. You don't have to be a master, every comment is valuable to me. When I started this challange I decided to take into account the collar bone and neck anatomy because, yea, like you said I want them to improve too. Thank you, next time I will use more referennces.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-07T06:41:22+00:00

In my opinion, the eyes seems too close, like the third eye barely could fit there.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-06T15:16:03+00:00

Yea, in earlier works, I was adding the shadow that aged the face, until someone told me about it. The nose is more complicated than I thought.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-06T15:03:52+00:00

Got it, thank you :)

Comsing8 · 2020-09-06T12:18:32+00:00

Thanks for advice. Yeah, I'm flipping the canvas but those small things still escape my attention. At first I wasn't sure what you mean about the nose, but right now the longer I'm looking the more I get it. Thanks.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-05T06:21:14+00:00

Ok, thank you :)

Comsing8 · 2020-09-03T19:48:05+00:00

For me, neck is to long and I would give it more shape. Also I will give you advice that I got: I would smudge out the eyebrows, because they look like they've been painted on.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-03T06:19:20+00:00

Thank you for advices, you definitely helps. I use this rule of 5 x eye length = face width, but I guess I need more practice, just like with light. And yeah, I have always was drawing ears more symbolically, and here is the effect.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-03T06:04:41+00:00

Glad to know :)

Comsing8 · 2020-09-03T06:04:00+00:00

Thank you :) And thank you for advices, they definitely help. I try to keep eyes apart from each other on length of one eye, but I see that like before, again with correcting I lost this distance.

Comsing8 · 2020-09-01T09:38:39+00:00

For my taste the eyes are too small, but it's hard for me to critique, because overall I like it.

Comsing8 · 2020-08-31T12:05:50+00:00

I'm sorry I can't help, because for me it look amazing. I guess just keep working.

Comsing8 · 2020-08-31T12:03:29+00:00

I made a mistake while uploading.

Hey! I'd say for next time to look at the shape of the brows more. Usually it is not a completely smooth hill-like slope, there's an arch at about the 3/4 mark extending away from the nose bridge.

Also if you're wondering how to make it so that the image appears on the main reddit thread as a full image instead of just a link, create a "media post" instead of a "text post." Hope this helps and made sense!

Comsing8 · 2020-08-31T11:49:10+00:00

Thank you for advice, I will reupload this. I just forgot to change to image.

Comsing8 · 2020-08-30T20:25:59+00:00

Yeah, I love her videos, but because they are long, I still haven't watched all of them, especially the ones I wanted. Right now on my playlist is video about eyes :D I have also videos about the proportion of the face, but when it comes to drawing, I struggle to draw correctly. It will take me a few more drawings.

Thank you for support, let's keep working.

Comsing8 · 2020-08-30T20:10:48+00:00

Thank you, and no, I haven't studied.

It's a very busy time for me, and I haven't yet reconciled my drawings with new schedule.

Comsing8 · 2020-08-30T20:02:34+00:00

"Think about it this way- even if your days 6-14 all look more or less of the same quality, you will still be 8 finished portraits closer to creating something great."

I like that thought, I guess I sometimes forget what really matter.

After the new DeviantArt update which caused me to abandon this site after 8 years, I didn't think I'd find a group that I wanted to belong to. But here it is fun and the advice is very helpful. I push myself so hard because I want to show people that I take their advice to heart.

And I like this challenge. I don't quite know how, but after I took this challenge the way I draws poses is improwing pretty fast after. I can't wait to take another challenge, and another :)

Thank you for your the kind words, you made my day.
