- put a paper under your drawing hand, so you don’t smudge anything - use a reference that is as large and detailed as possible (for example in this case: 2500 X 1600 pixel) - take your time trying out brands and pencils (I prefer Faber Castell)
So, this is my promised skin tutorial. To be honest it was weird to do, because I’ve never paid much attention at how I draw. Analyzing my steps was pretty interesting.
Most of my pictures aren’t that detailed like you can see here. I just did it to have a good example for my tutorial. How many details you put into the skin depends mostly on your reference.
Please be also aware that this is just my way of doing it. It can be right for you, too, but maybe for you a different way works better.
As always, if you have any further questions feel free to ask
Oooooh my gosh bless your soul for posting this! I've been looking around like crazy for a tutorial on drawing realistic skin texture and there's so few out there. Thank you!!
