Hello! Welcome to my blog, you're so, so welcome here.
It's nice to be posting my second portrait on here. Today, I'll be posting a pencil portrait of Yoongi Min. I even took progress pics this time. I'm planning to draw all seven members of the boy group I like simply because I want to decorate my room with them afterwards, so bear with me for now. I only have 5 more men to post about. Anyway, here's the portrait!
I started off with a very rough sketch of the face.
I then drew his hair and shoulders.
+very light coat of grey as his skin's base.
+more shadows on his skin, I layer out the shadows.
+blend that out and add more shadows
+and more shadows, but this time, I also darkened his eyes.
+shaded in his hair and added more details.
Ok. I came to this point and didn't like it at all, something was off, and I couldn't tell what it was. After staring at it for about 20 minutes, I decided his eyes were too far apart, so I redrew one. I also realized his irises were off.
+I fixed those issues.
Looks much better, right? But I still didn't like it. His smile wasn't right, so
+I erased his whole mouth and redrew it again a bit higher.
+Also lifted his smile line. Shaded his chin more.
+And added more shadows, and some highlights.
Much, much better. By here, I liked the outcome. Time to add his name and my signature! :)
After I post this I'll put him on my wall, with my other drawings. He's going where I put the x.
I'll post more about the sets of eyes, nose and lips on my wall, as well as the blue water colour portrait soon!
(Spoiler: the blue painting is painted with flower juice.)
Hope you enjoyed seeing the progress of my new portrait!
I really like the shading. Your mom is quite the legend to me. Its so cool to see that you're creative.
Thank you! I'm glad you support her:)
Amazing work! You make drawing seem so easy and possible!
I can’t draw so this is like magic to me.
Very nice drawing! In such a short time too!
@kaminchan - please meet my talented 15 year old Thai daughter, Ploi. I'd really appreciate it if you could help connect her to some cool Thai people on #hive as well. x Extra cheesecake for you when you visit. 😆
Lucky you! She is very artistic; very nice drawings to her credit! She’ll do very well on this platform as time goes by.
She could post on both Thai and English language, don’t forget to use ‘thai’ tag. Joining the weekly contest would be a good way to get to know other people. Do look up @thaiteam and @tookta. There’s a voting trail for #thai tag.
Thank you! It always helps when I'm drawing something I want to draw.. It motivates me! :)
