musicgal3's attempts at drawing

[musicgal3]

This is where I'll be posting my 'CATS' drawings. I cannot draw...but I'm getting better! (Very slowly.) Even so, I’m very proud of what I have drawn so far, even if most of them can be improved. I would love some feedback!

The first one is the only actual picture of the video cast I've drawn so far, but I'm VERY proud of it. I copied it early last year from a picture I had stuck to one of my schoolbooks, and I really pleased with how it turned out. (Ignore the lines, I drew it on the closest paper I had, which happened to be lined.)



Then there are these that I’ve drawn over the last two weeks. They’re just make-up sketches. Some are not quite how I wanted them, but I’m happy nonetheless. Sorry about the blurred pictures. I might have to try to take some more later (my scanner doesn’t want to scan in colour, and I can’t scan photocopies this time because the colour isn’t coming out right on those, either. Grrrr. Stupid scanner.). If you would like to try any of these yourself and have any questions about colours, etc., just PM me. I’m afraid I don’t know much about make-up, so how I think it may have been done are purely guesses, but I’ll try to help…

These pictures came out somewhat larger than anticipated...oh, well, can't be bothered to go back and resize them at the moment, lol. Sorry if they take a while loading...

Tantomile – this is a different version from the one above, yet it’s from the same tour and was on the same person…

Mine:


Original character OR swing OR Cassandra…I really don’t know which, lol, it just popped into my head when I was trying to get to sleep.

Very promising! You've got the basic construction of the faces pretty accurate. A little more practice, and you'll be drawin' faces like a pro! When it comes to eye/nose/mouth placement, that's something I myself have trouble with. Try drawing lines on your faces to show you where the features go whie keeping them proportionate and even at the same time. Like I say with everyone else, it's easiest to practice with anime first

You're on your way! Keep drawing!

Thanks for the encouraging comments. I have tried drawing in an anime style, and it worked (I think), I'm still working on getting this sort of face right, but your comments were very helpful. I'll try what you suggested. Thanks.

Well the extent of my drawing is random eyes and doodles so I can't give you any tips. But I CAN say, that these drawing are really good.

Really? Awww, thanks. *hugs*

Teeehee, no worries
