References. Some tags are not listed on the link. To have a specific search, type in www.artists-references.tumblr.com/tagged/[name of what you're looking for] If you click on a reference you want and you want more, check what it is tagged after you clicked the post. Most likely there will be others tagged under that names. I will try to do 50 reference posts per day. I will try to be broad AND specific while tagging them. Please ask if you want more of a certain reference or please ask if I don't have a certain reference. Thank you! MY IDENTITY IS A MYSTERY.

Sorry this is so short! But, some tips: 

  • Try drawing from life. It helps so much. 
  • Eyelids are not flap, there’s a little lip between the eyeball and the eyelid. How much of it you can see depends on eye shape and the angle. 
  • Experiment with different shapes!
  • In some lights, eyelashes reflect on the eyeball. 
  • Eye lids have all different kinds of shape, so experiment with those, too. Same goes for wrinkles. 
  • Expressions affect the eyelids, too, so try looking up different expressions or taking pictures of yourself doing them and draw from those!

IT’S DONE

Okay so I’ve never done a tutorial before. Like.. Ever. So I hope this is somewhat helpful for y’all artsy people. I had fun making it, at least~

SO LET ME TELL YOU BEGINNER ARTISTS OR ARTISTS WHO WANT IMPROVEMENT

I am an active reference blog that will try to be posting 50, YES FIFTY, references per day.

I will take reference requests.

I will try to tag them BROADLY and SPECIFICALLY so you can look for them easier.

My goal is to help those find references quickly and find references which are difficult to find.

In the meantime, the fashion tag is basically clothing stuffs with perhaps a few pictures of actual fashion for references.

Another batch of anon and one none-anon asks xD.

messedwiththewrongwoman asked you:
I was just wondering if you can show us the settings on your brushes, and the main ones you use and what for?

The first one is the marker settings I have. The second one is what I usually use for my drawings/paintings.

Anonymous asked you:
How long does it usually take for you to complete a drawing (with colors, shading, lighting, the works)?

A few days give or take, depending on what I’m doing, how detailed it is, whether it has backgrounds or not, and how inspired I am when I’m drawing it. 

Anonymous asked you:
What is your opinion on a job as an animator? Since you’ve had some experience with it, I was just wondering what you thought about it… Do you think it would be a cool job, or a boring one?

Honestly, it depends on if you like animating or not. Personally I prefer painting backgrounds and stuff, but if people like animation, they’ll like the job enough. It can get pretty stressful due to deadlines and stuff, of course, and it also depends on how skilled you are. 

Anonymous asked you:
How long have you been drawing, if you can remember? and what got you into digital art? Thank you~ I love your work and I’m a DA as well.

I started digital painting back in 2007. I’ve always been doodling on books and stuff for as long as i can remember though. I’ve always wanted to be an artist :D. Thanks so much!

Anonymous asked you:
Your art is so beautiful! You have improved so much over the time I’ve been following your work as well. Truly an inspiration <3

Thank you!

Anonymous asked you:
Could you make some tutorials on different backgrounds, please? And if do could you handle the different elements on the backgrounds please? And also do you have a youtube channel? btw I really like your art x3

The thing with background is that it’s REALLY complicated, and you can’t just do parts at a time, like you can with anatomy. Everything’s related to each other and the most important thing is understanding perspective. I haven’t studied perspective indepth like I have anatomy, so I can’t be 100% sure of what i’m talking about yet. Maybe someday :). and thanks.

Anonymous asked you:
How do you make your lines so smooth?

I don’t know? steady hand and practice? xD

Anonymous asked you:
After a while of working on a piece, I get bored. If I stop working on it and come back to it, I don’t have the same motivation to finish it that I had when I started it. Is there a way to get over this boredom?

I don’t think i have a way for you, sorry! I can only think of starting the drawing over again. I tend to be able to mull over a drawing for weeks and weeks, so i don’t usually get bored. if i ever lose motivation, i just stop and do something else, and chances are i don’t go back to the drawing again hahaha;;;.

This is Jack Hamm’s entire section on folds, minus a page that was repetitive so I ditched it to fit the photoset limit. If you guys like, I’ll scan more of his stuff from time to time, I have been trying to get everyone on board with him forever!

To reiterate, these scans are from Jack Hamm’s Drawing The Head And Figure.
