Description The second step of my Ben Barnes picture. Someone reminded me that I'm working on that one, too (you know who you are ), so I decided to show a new step of this one.

Until now I always thought hair is the most horrible thing to draw, but I've to change my mind: The chain-mail is much worse. I think I'll be insane the minute I'll finish it

This is only the upper half of the picture, so you can better see all the details (and I'm too lazy to scan the whole picture )

Size: of the upper half approx. 29 cm X 21 cm
duration: no idea
tools: HB to 8B pencils and lots of patience

Have fun!

Well, I guess people are happier if I put more work into my pictures than into my scans

Looks amazing! I totaly agree with the chain mail, It is realy the hardest part compared to the hair. I can know cause I made one Myself. You did a great job on the hair part. [link]
Good luck with it.

I love your drawings. Do you draw grids for proportions ? If not then what method do you use to get the proportions right ?

Svera In reply to TheDarkRayne [2010-04-06 18:11:09 +0000 UTC]

I don't use grids, I measure the proportions. I use the width of an eye to get the distance to the other eye, the nose and so on.

With many artists out there I think the same concerning my own art But it's all about practice. I'm never satisfied with my pictures and try to become better every day

you are SO amazing. but i know what you mean about chain mail. I drew a picture from the first Narnia movie of Peter and he was wearing chain mail a nd I about went mad, but Caspian's hair is a wicked pain too.

D; How did you manage to not get lost when drawing the little itty bitty chain links? or perhaps just give the illusion that you didn't???
please do tell o ^o

Sometimes I got lost I often counted the links to see what to draw next.

Hail Svera! Realism requires too much concentration on my half. Will here is the most recently I've gone all out.

I wore a hole in the paper around his eye trying to get it right.

I love Will! He's such a funny character!
I always wanted to do pictures as realistic as I can So you can say I'm basically very stubborn
