Journey ??
11mo
@silentmoonss
Forgot what number I was in when it came to counting my art journey but I have returned for another critique session and this time I have brought a stylized drawing from imagination( a bit of reference cuz I needed help with the eyes) I’m actually a bit happy with this one and went completely out of my comfort zone by attempting to shade I wasn’t really going to finish the other eye either but I tried and I actually liked the result. Has a bit of trouble with the nose I’ve been studying noses for 2 weeks now and I’m still struggling with the ball of the nose and how it’s positioned. Especially when we can’t see the nostrils. If anyone has some tips regarding noses and prior critiques on how I did with my drawing please kindly post some
It looks like you have jumped to detailing this one, without checking proportions and if features align. The right ear should be lower. Eyes are quite big. I understand you're going for a stylized look but that requires a bit more overall direction. Just making eyes big isn't enough.
There's also the fact that some plane transitions are very harsh (lips, the bridge of the nose) and some are smooth (the nose itself).
The eyes have a bit of a weird shape. The right one especially looks like its sogging.
Focus on the proportions and bigger shapes, before you move to detailing.
Anyways, you've put quite a bit of work into this and it shows. I think the nose looks great.
