      And here I add some filters and tones. I rather like it. I would definitely read a comic that had this kind of rendering.

        I feel like I was monopolizing the studio page so I thought I’d update here. I was trying the new photoshop app for iPad and was doodling a profile. Which then quickly made me realize I need to practice drawing from references or real life rather than from my head. I found a reference and produced this image in Procreate. (I just like their pencils so much better).

          I decided to revisit my sketch adding values and textures. I am well pleased.

            I am trying to draw more faces. This was originally from a reference and then I totally morphed it to this. I love this pic. She seems so sweet and innocent. Like Spring. Maybe Anne of Green Gables?
