Hello Guys!
Today I bring you another drawing of one of my favorite superheroes:
Wonder Woman
To make this drawing, I used charcoal pencils in most of the cases, since graphite is very annoying to illustrate dark areas.
Annoying that shines a lot and in some photos of the process it is noticeable in the areas where I used graphite.
The materials I used for this illustration were:
- A4 Opaline 180G.
- Charcoal Pencils.
- Mechanical Pencil.
- Brush.
- Graphite Powder.
- Card Embosser
- Moldable Eraser.
- White Gel Marker.
Process:
I had little problems to make the sketch, since faces are always complicated for me, however I got the look and started illustrating the skin of the face working with layers.
After layering the skin, I created shadows to give volume to her face, it really cost a lot to draw her mouth, it is the most complicated part of that image.
Although it did not look like the reference, I really liked how it was remaining so I decided to continue.
Although it is about realism and the ideal is that it is identical to the original, I really like it when things change a little since it feels like the essence of each artist.
To make the suit I used graphite powder and smoothed it with the brush, since it takes on a more uniform texture and is easier to illuminate later with the moldable eraser, thus simulating the texture of the armor.
To make the hair texture I used a tool that in my country is called Embosser, I don't know what it is called in other places but it can be used to write on invitation cards.
I marked strand by strand to generate the hair texture.
I hope you like my work, I will leave you the process in Speed Drawing which I recorded for my YouTube channel.
