So I found this interesting avatar contest hosted by , and decided to join in. It was tough but I came up with this and I think it's great. Check my entry post with the process/steps in bringing the picture to its cartoon form with a video of my drawing below.
This is the original picture of his I made
So, let's go.
Firstly, a piece of art can be done in any method or way depending on the artist with the pencil or art equipment.
Step 1
I started with the body, that is the neck line and the shoulders. I drew a faint line of both sides.
Step 2
I drew the face, staring from the jaw since the work was started with the body and all in thin lines.
Step 3
I drew the hair and then I had to shade it. To do that, I started with the thin line, then the thick lines.
Step 4
I drew the eyes, nose and mouth with the thin lines in order to get the exact picture. Then I put in the facial lines (where necessary)
Step 5
I had to thicken all lines now to get a clear picture and after then, I used the coloured pencil to paint and add beauty to the work.
Thanks to for having this contest! Looking forward for more, and maybe next time, I'll do a better one!
Thanks also to all who appreciate my work!
