How do you draw noses?

I’m not sure what specific part you’re wondering about, so here’s a run-through of my process from sketching to painting!

1) The first thing I do is simplify the nose into a few basic shapes to get a prism-like block, like so:

2) I can now easily draw the prism shape in three-dimensional space depending on the angle and rotation of the head.

3) Using the guidelines/planes I can draw a proper nose in any angle! There aren’t many tricks or shortcuts for this step, unfortunately (other than practicing lots). I recommend using references, they’re always helpful :)

4) Really important to note: all noses vary greatly, especially from different ethnicities! A high-bridge “aristocratic” sort of nose or a ski-slope button nose might be accurate for some people, but definitely not everyone. Compare differences in size, width, a hooked or button nose tip, high or low nose bridge, and so on:

5) Then I paint! I have a skin tone tutorial here, if it helps. Take note of the lighting, skin tone, etc. Here are some things I keep in mind:

For pale skin tones, the nose sometimes has a redder colouration than the rest of the face because of increased blood flow.

The nose also usually has highlights (due to oil). These are located on the tip of the nose, the nostril groove, and where the base of the nose meets the flat area of skin around it!

Hope this helps! In the end, all stylistic choices are completely up to you. Art’s subjective, so feel free to draw any noses you want :)

Hi! I have a really hard time adding descriptions to my story and seem to only want to write dialog. Is there anyway to work around this?

Balancing Dialogue with Action and Narrative

While description is an important part of writing dialogue, when you say dialogue is all you want to write, what’s missing from your story isn’t description specifically, but action and narrative.  A good scene should have a balance between dialogue, action, and narrative. But what are they?

Action - contrary to what you might think, “action” doesn’t have to mean a car chase or an epic battle. “Action” just means something is happening–things are in motion. An action scene can be your protagonist at her job as a store clerk, stocking the soup aisle when a couple of friends come in to tell her about a party, or it could be your protagonist riding the bus to school. And yes, it can be a car chase or a battle, but it doesn’t have to be. Every scene should include some action.

Narrative - narrative is probably what you mean when you say your story is lacking “descriptions.” Narrative is when things are being explained by the narrator. This can be the narrator explaining back story, character thoughts or feelings, something that happened off-the-page, plot or setting elements–really anything that is being explained rather than playing out as an action or dialogue sequence. Every scene should include some narrative.

Dialogue - dialogue is obviously a conversation between two or more characters, but dialogue should also include description. In other words, you don’t want a dialogue sequence that looks like a tennis match of spoken words. You need to add action and description to make it more interesting. So, instead of:

“Do you know what time it is?”

“No, want me to check?”

“Sure, I guess.”

“Okay, it’s ten o’clock.”

(Which is very boring…) You would do this:

Sam sauntered into the room. “Do you know what time it is?”

“No,” Sarah said, glancing up from her needlework. “Want me to check?”

The truth of the matter was, Sam wasn’t sure he wanted Sarah to check the time. Was it better for him not to know? Was it true that a watched pot never boils? Letting out a frustrated groan, he shuffled to the window and parted the velvet curtains to peer out. Snow was still falling in apocalyptic fashion. The carriage would never make it through. They should be here by now!

“Sure, I guess. I mean, yes. Please check the time,” Sam said at last.

“Okay.” Sarah fished around in the deep pocket of her skirt until she found her pocket watch, which she pulled out by the chain. “It’s ten o’clock.”

Now that was a lot more interesting, wasn’t it? Plus it tells us a lot more than just back and forth dialogue. Here’s how all the things we discussed come into play:

Sam sauntered into the room. (action and description) “Do you know what time it is?”

“No,” Sarah said, glancing up from her needlework. (description) “Want me to check?”

The truth of the matter was, Sam wasn’t sure he wanted Sarah to check the time. Was it better for him not to know? Was it true that a watched pot never boils? Letting out a frustrated groan, he shuffled to the window and parted the velvet curtains to peer out. Snow was still falling in apocalyptic fashion. The carriage would never make it through. They should be here by now! (narrative)

“Sure, I guess. I mean, yes. Please check the time,” Sam said at last.

“Okay.” Sarah fished around in the deep pocket of her skirt until she found her pocket watch, which she pulled out by the chain.(action and description) “It’s ten o’clock.”

So, now that you know what all of these things are, how do you add them in? Well, there’s no special method. You just do it. It takes practice to do it well, but you’ll get there. For now, just try it. When you find yourself writing “tennis match” dialogue, figure out where you can add a little action, narrative, and description to flesh things out. And when you’re writing a scene, make sure you include narrative to explain what’s happening, action to move the story forward, and description to tell the reader about the characters and settings. :)

For future reference.

Did a miniguide of male anatomy for a friend.

A lot of people ask me if they can use my art as reference and I dont advice to do that. You will learn faster and better doing your own anatomy studies from real people not art from other people.

I hope this helps!

AY WATTPAD WRITERS!!! BACK UP ALL YOUR WORKS TO TUMBLR - WATTPAD SOLD THE SITE TO WEBTOONS AND APPARENTLY A LOT OF NSFW CONTENT IS BEING DELETED!!!!

ENTIRE ACCOUNTS ARE GOING MISSING WITHOUT WARNING

Random drawing I made last month

Hope this can help you guys :) 

PLEASE DONATE. The typhoon didn't hit me but it hit places near me and my province even though I live in the region where the typhoon hit(I'm so lucky and so grateful). Philippines is a very poor country with a corrupt fucking government. They will not do anything to help the people.

Hell, if you donate at least 15$+ (750 pesos for Filipinos) I'll draw anything for you to the best of my ability. Legit art of your oc, fandom or ABSOLUTELY ANYTHInG. Just please please donate. You have no idea how hard this hit so many lives. I'm begging

The Philippines just got hit by the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in history

Yesterday, November 1, 2020, Typhoon Rolly (international name Goni) hit the central part of Luzon, Philippines.

Like the tweet said, it is the most powerful tropical cyclone to hit landfall in recorded history. 

The typhoon has now passed, but the aftermath is bad. Houses destroyed, farmlands flooded, and many, many evacuees. If you would like to see what’s going on, check the hashtag #RollyPH on Twitter, there’s a lot, which brings me to the most important point

how you can help

You can donate to help relief operations. 

There are many donation drives currently being circulated on Twitter, and you can find them by searching the #ReliefPH hashtag, here are just a few that I’ve found that have an option to donate through PayPal.

And there are many many more. 

This is just the tip of the iceberg, a lot of people in my country are trying their absolute best to chip in and help those affected, but help from outside would definitely be something that could go a long way. 

If you can’t donate, maybe a reblog could bring this post to people who could. 

Thank you for reading. Stay safe and healthy, everybody.
