Many people's sketching features (character heads) foundation is relatively weak, whether it is drawing sketches, colored lead, watercolor and other characters, sketching five features are the foundation!
The facial features of the character play a very important role in the portrait of the character, and the accurate facial features can well show the spiritual temperament of the character.
When drawing the avatar, it is necessary to show the perspective relationship of the five senses, but also to show the perspective change of a single individual.
The following is a detailed explanation of the individual facial features:
eye
The eyes are the windows of the soul, the windows of people's emotional embodiment, and the focus of the plain face portrait.
The basic structure of the eye.
The eye consists of three parts: the orbit, the eyeball, and the eyelid.
The basic shape of the eye is a sphere, which is embedded in the eye socket as a whole, surrounded by a circular orbicularis muscle.
The eyeball is the main body of the eye, it is a transparent sphere, structurally divided into pupils, iris, bulbous conjunctiva (whites), etc.; orbit refers to the internal structure of the eye; eyelids are divided into upper and lower eyelids. In drawing, always remember that it is a sphere, and all changes must follow the body feel of the sphere, so that you can draw the eyes well. The eyebrows are located at the outer edge of the orbit at the arch of the eyebrow and are divided into eyebrows, arches, and tips. The brow is generally in the backlight surface under the light source, and it will be darker when processed; the brow arch is a bone point, which is more prominent, which is the focus of structural performance; the eyebrow tip is on the outer edge of the eyebrow. When drawing, it is necessary to mainly express the structure of the arch of the eyebrow, and cannot only stay in the shape of the eyebrow appearance.
How to draw the front eye:
The contours of the orbit at the front angle resemble irregular quadrilaterals, with the crystal part of the eyeball showing the most and the black eyeballs approaching the perfect circle. At this angle, the perspective of the left and right eyes is basically symmetrical, and the width distance between the left and right sides is also close to equal. It should be noted that sometimes it is affected by the appearance characteristics of the model or the slight movement of the head, and the left and right eyes are slightly different.
steps:
A First draw the eye frame shape.
B Find the three-line concrete shape.
C Follow the three lines to lay out the dark side color.
D Knead the dark side,
Under the premise of ensuring the shape of the dark side, the dark side color is more harmonious and unified.
E Close the dark side trilinear, deep into the dark side.
F Perfect the picture, go deep into the bright surface, draw the gray surface and highlights.
nose
The nose is in the center of the face, which is the most prominent part of the face, and it is also the part with the strongest sense of volume on the face, which is the object of emphasis. It is composed of nasal bone and nasal cartilage, the upper part is composed of nasal bone and nasal cartilage to form the bridge of the nose, and the lower part is the nose head and nasal wing. The shape of the nose varies from person to person, there is a high nose bridge, a low nose bridge, a sharp point, a thick one, and when drawing, it is necessary to start from the fundamental body structure to express the image characteristics of the character.
How to draw the nose on the front:
In the frontal view, the nose can be understood as a three-dimensional shape of a trapezoidal block surface, and the most varied is the part of the base of the nose composed of the wings and nostrils. Most people's nose wings approximate a trapezoidal feel at this angle. Note that although the shape of the two sides of the nose is relatively symmetrical at this angle, it is necessary to fully combine the actual characteristics of the model when drawing specifically, so as to avoid drawing the nose on the front side too symmetrically and losing vividness.
Frontal nose structure
A First draw the nose frame shape, the trilinear shape.
B lays out dark-sided tones.
C Knead the dark side shape.
D Penetrate into the dark side.
E Completion screen. Arted ash face japanese high light shape.
mouth
The mouth is as expressive as the eyes, whether it is a mouth in a static state or a state of motion, it can convey a lot of feelings and have a great effect on the characteristic performance of the characters.
When drawing, it is also necessary to pay attention to the different characteristics of different models, and the different mouth shapes are determined by the curvature of the jaws and teeth
Determined. People of different ages and genders also have different lip lines, and they can be lined according to the direction of the lip lines when performing.
Frontal mouth drawing method:
Before drawing, observe the basic characteristics of the drawing object, at this angle the contour line of the upper lip is similar to "M", the lower lip contour is similar to "W", they and the mouth crack are curves with certain undulations, and the size and intensity of the undulations vary from person to person.
The upper and lower contour lines of the mouth are basically symmetrical in the left and right perspective distances of the mouth cracks. No matter how the drawing angle of the mouth changes, the perspective of the mouth should be bounded by people, and the proportion of the size of the mouth and the two points above the upper lip protrusion should be drawn according to the law of near and far perspective.
A Use a long straight line to determine the approximate up, down, left, and right position of the mouth.
B draws the complete three lines.
C Flanking with a pen, laying out the dark side color.
D Knead the dark side.
E Shapes the dark side shape.
F Enrich the glossy surface and complete the picture.
ear
The entire outer contour of the ear is "C" shaped, the upper end is wide, the bottom is narrow, and the center is a concave bowl-shaped body, when expressing the ear, it is necessary to first understand the shape and structure of the ear, and pay attention to the interspersed combination of various parts. The ear is composed of the outer auricle, the inner pinna, the triangle socket, the ear screen, the pair ear screen, the earlobe, etc.
Front ear drawing method:
The front of the ear is clearly contoured and the overall shape is obliquely oval- When drawing, pay attention to the interspersed combination of various parts of the ear, and the shape of the front ear better reflects the smoothness of the line and the shape from line to surface.
A Draws the silhouette of the front ear.
C Lays out the dark side color.
E Shape the dark side.
