Flawless Character Design by Yu Cheng Hong

Y u Cheng Hong is a master when it comes to character design, from the fine details to the colors. Everything is perfect, and faultless with each and every one of his paintings. He has created artwork for many MMORPG games and not only does he specialize in digital painting, he can 3D render characters, as well as animate them. But his paintings are my favorite. http://inspirationhut.net/inspiration/flawless-character-design-by-yu-cheng-hong/

Rajacenna Draws Celebrity Portraits

Rajacenna is an 18-year-old self-taught artist from the Netherlands who draws the most realistic portraits I have ever seen, using only pencils. I’m a big fan of realistic drawings, and I’ve previously featured amazing works like the pencil drawings of Paul Lung , the ballpoint pen portraits of Juan Francisco Casas , or Cristina Penescu’s detailed scratchboard masterpieces , but at only 18 years of age Rajacenna is in a league of her own. Born in 1993, she started modelling for various Dutch companies when she was only 4, and at 5 years old she made her first appearance on television. She starred in films, soap-operas and tv-series and at 12 she became the host of Kinderjournaal, the first Dutch web-tv for kids. She only took up drawing in 2009, and although she had never taken any art classes she produced some stunning pieces. http://www.odditycentral.com/pics/would-you-believe-these-were-drawn-by-an-18-year-old.html

Lackadaisy Construction

Some notes about construction drawing that may or may not be helpful. This is in response to some questions from my tumblr blog . There are notes about Expressions here, and an old sort of drawing tutorial here that cover some of the same material. I'd also recommend to anyone trying to learn how to draw this way (or any way) to check out Andrew Loomis books. They're old, but are still superior to most of the how-to-draw stuff you can find out there.

At the end, I will show a step by step of an ear drawing. Basic Forms The simplified volume of the ear is very much like a megaphone. This is easier to see from the back, where the concha is like the tubular part and the helix is the lip part of the megaphone.
