I HATE DRAWING HUMAN FACESI HATE DRAWING HUMAN FACESI HATE DRAWING HUMAN FACESI HATE DRAWING HUMAN FACESI CAN LITERALLY DRAW ANYTHING ELSE JUST FINE... BUT WHEN IT COMES TO FACES??????????????? IT FEELS LIKE I'M FUCKING DRUNK OR SOMETHING
>>7859107Draw what you hate or you'll stagnate forever.Right now I hate drawing human faces in 3/4ths, looking up, looking down, and from behind at any angle. My best piece of art has a human face looking up and 3/4ths, and now I don't hate drawing faces at that angle as much.
>>7859107go fuck a dog god fucker
>>7859110Yeah... I had decided i would just keep grinding it even if my brain explodes.It's just that it's so fucking disheartening, i never felt like this with any other subject in art... sigh
Faces are tough. Our brains have been trained through evolution to recognize other human faces and if anything appears even slightly off it triggers the "this is wrong" response immediately. One tip that helps me is to imagine the skull that makes up the head/face that I'm drawing and making sure all of my features line up with how the actual skull structure/planes would have it. Of course this means you'll have to actually study the structure of the skull but I'm not sure how much of that you've dove into. Don't commit to any details until you're fairly confident you know where the nose, eyes, mouth, etc. all will land.
>>7859107Anon, can you draw human faces?
>>7859115Oh, i did study facial anatomy, i have a decent grasp of how the bones, muscles, articulations and perspective works... Honestly, i struggle mostly with achieving likeness.I did these >>7859114, but i had to design/modify some of the features 'cuz i just wasn't able to make it look like what is supposed to look like. Idk, i'm wierd.
>>7859121Barely, i did these. >>7859114I do paint them, also.
>>7859107why do you not like to draw faces? its a very valuable thing to be able to draw.what DO you like to draw is the real question.
>>7859114These aren't even that bad. Sure there's still things that could be improved, but you don't need to be freaking out. You've already crossed several hurdles a lot of beginners go through.
>>7859127Thank uuu!!! Just know that i'm still trying my best, your words won't be in vain!!!!!!!
>>7859126I like drawing human bodies, they're cool.
>>7859137They m..mock..
>>7859107What's the best guide for drawing aged faces?
>>7859183Young people has lots of healthy fat in their faces, as you get older the fat disappears which results in your skin getting wrinkles and turning saggy. This is it, pretty much... Just add skin wrinkles where the face fat used to be, the more you add, the older it looks.I'd recommend Scott Eaton Facial Anatomy course, it has everything you'll need to learn and it's the one i studied, but it's VEEEEEERY fucking boring if you have ADHD (and kinda long, but understandable).Or read this, it's actually very accurate.https://tips.clip-studio.com/en-us/articles/7068
>>7859192>>7859183Old fat people can be kinda tricky to draw, tho...But you can tell by the lack of fat under the eyes, which is causing some wrinkles.
I find realistic human faces pretty boring hence why i also suck at them and never bothered learning
>>7859201For real... I'm at least forcing myself to learn it so i can stylize anthro stuff...
>>7859107>>7859114Faces are tricky because that's naturally what we gravitate towards and judge the most harshly - so they have to be on point compared to everything else. A small error can stick out like a sore thumb, meanwhile an actual thumb on the hand can be mutilated as hell and people will just get the gist of what you were going for and accept it.
>>7859249Yeah, i'm learning this the hard way... Drawing animal faces is way easier in comparison, you just have to add the defining feature of the animal and that's it, it'll read as what it's supposed to be... If only people had the same face...
>>7859107stop being autistic and draw human faces
