Drew a screenshot from my game!

Dina enjoying her best life with her late husband's money.

This whole process was soo much fun! Basically what I did was divide my paper into different sections and then I divided my screenshot as well (in photoshop), after that I just drew what every section had in the ss.

I think it turned out great! I know it's not perfect but I don't care because it was fun.

Enjoy!

There's another one I didn't get to, but in general would we like more? if so pls feel free to ask questions in my inbox and I will try my best!

Basic head models

i think an important thing to learn, especially if you start out with drawing anime, is that faces don’t necessarily have to narrow from top to bottom

i like to think of wide top, wide middle, wide bottom, and rectangle-like as the 4 main face shapes

what you should keep in mind about them:

you’re only halfway done: the jawlines, the width-length ratio, the amount of fat in the cheeks, the intensity or subtlety of the face’s curves are all important components you still have to decide on after choosing the shape itself

none of these shapes are exclusively feminine or masculine, don’t hesitate drawing them on any gender

most people in real life have some variation of the wide middle type

if you are trying to draw real people, getting the shape of their face down is the first step
