Evolution of My Eye Style
Anime Eyes ♥
My love for animated films was the spark of my passion for drawing. I used to watch Baby Bratz and such and I'd draw Cloe with her curly blonde hair. Theeeen, I got introduced to the anime world~ I watched Detective Conan, Alice Academy, K-On! and all those old anime and found myself watching a Youtube tutorial on how to draw Mio from K-On! > u < Sooo when I had my first drawing tablet, my first drawings were of course in the only style I knew, anime!
Higher Resolution Anime Eyes > u <
I had better control of the pen pressure so I was able to make neater line art and nicer eyes :> Well, Anime has a special place in my heart so it's not surprising that anime style clung on me. But as I reached my teen years, I got addicted to Dota! I admired its art and the fan arts as well~ And just recently, I realized that I want to draw for games, rather than anime. Having completely different art styles, I had a hard time adjusting specially with the nose! Anime had cute dot as noses and huuuge eyes so when I tried realistic-ish art, it had huge eyes and no nose...
Attempts on Game-ish Art!> u <
When I realized I wanted a game-like style, I first tried to paint without line art...
More Practice with Game-ish Art~
After a lot of tips, tutorials, and practice, I managed to make my eyes look like these... Looking back, it's a huge step up from where I started! Buuut, I felt like it was still lacking so again, back to Youtube tutorials... And I'm really happy I did because I came across 2 videos that greatly helped me get the look I've always wanted \o/
Huge Turn!
Looking at it, I still can't believe I made this > u < It's soooo different from the style I got used to! It's softer, brighter, and more intense! This was how I've always wanted my eyes to look like! Soft like Shal E's yet intense like Ross's! Yeah, I just learned how to do this an hour ago so please bear with my excitement > u < I have so much to learn but I'll get there, eventually, hopefully! I'm so excited to make more faces with eyes like these but my hand hurts already hehehe
I've only used hard brushes for my drawings which is probably why it looked a lot more stiff than this one... The tutorials I've watched used softer brushes for the base then used harder brushes to define the corners of the eyes, etc. I love soft brushes now. > u <
PS, I'm sorry for the resolution of the drawings... They had different resolutions so those that were drawn in small canvasses turned out pixelated when enlarged :< Also, I put them together using MS Paint > u <
That's about it! I am one happy artist u
! It's full of amazing artists, both new and old, who are willing to share their experiences. I learned a lot from them, I hope you will too n_n
