So, I have an hard time drawing the directions for an character, the eyes and the hairstyle. And everytime I try to draw an girl the hair looks off and the eyes looks sick but looks perfectly normal if i'm sketching a boy. I've been trying to solve this problem for 2 years already.

In different angles

Its going to be that way until you learn to draw it on big

austere sable Apr 23, 2024, 10:11 AM

#

If you draw weird big then you probably draw weird small

tough talon Apr 23, 2024, 10:11 AM

#

#

no

#

that doesn't happen

austere sable Apr 23, 2024, 10:11 AM

#

Just stop drawing weird and draw normally then

tough talon Apr 23, 2024, 10:12 AM

#

austere sable If you draw weird big then you probably draw weird small

Nah I had the same problem because of line thickness it makes it look weirder on big and also lines and stuff need a wayy bigger stroke which you have to learn by drawing big

austere sable Apr 23, 2024, 10:12 AM

#

Go pick a reference you like and use references

#

Then use drawing tools of larger width if your line width is too small?

learn to draw the body in parts

that's a pretty cute drawing. The reason why it looks "off" is your brain telling you something isn't what it is supposed to be. You can try to look if something is supposed to be that way by following what I've learned from Sam (aka Samdoesart), cover a certain part of the drawing and try to imagine how that is supposed to look like. And i know how boring it is, but try to watch some tutorials on art fundamentals, try to apply what ou've learned and then have fun ><
