I'm kind of liking this medium. I've actually been playing around with it for about a week now. If I knew anything at all about drawing programs online or drawing tablets or anything I might be tempted to invest further in this type of work...
Anywho, this is inspired by the Jelly Cam from @montereybayaquarium. Thanks for providing some moments of peaceful mindfulness in this bizarre time.
Kinda struggled with the chin/jawline today, but I am liking adding some light shading so it looks not so flat. Still undecided on the pupils, gonna keeping messing around with that.
So I have gwitch brainrot and spent a good portion of my night painstakingly drawing this on my phone. Well, tracing more than drawing really, but I'm actually quite happy with how I've done. So here's me posting immediately after finishing before I lose my nerve
Day 38
Day 20
Gonna have to figure out a good way to show the light vs dark hair. I've been kind of ignoring it cause it didn't show up super well in black/white, but now the contrast is more stark.
Day 29
Came out smiling more than the pic, and the glasses are a little wonky. If I can get these done earlier than I wanna try drawing something other than my face, but we'll see how that pans out
I think I need to take more pictures face-on because something about drawing them is throwing me off
Thought the hat would be more of a struggle, but it wasn't that bad getting it on paper. Did make myself look angry, just from the left side of my mouth I think (eyebrow furrows not helping there either, but I still like them generally)
