How to make a front face- Digital Art — IbisPaintX — but with a twist!!

In this article, I will explain and show how to make a front face

Results- app used is IbisPaintX

I think, for most of the people, that it is hard to do a front face. But step by step you will learn! I know, it might be the first time to draw front face, but in time, you will learn. Subscribe .

I think you might be wondering what the twist is! You will find out soon.

Step 1

First, you can start with the eyes. I mostly start doing the eyes, then I do the face. Of course, I started with a sketch. I used the pen called Dip Pen (Soft).

This is the sketch.

Step 2

Now, I lowered the opacity and added another layer. I remade the sketch.

And I added a nose too. Make sure the nose isn’t really in right or left placed. try to make it in the front. I made it like this.

Here, I made the chin and the mouth. Try to make the chin not to weird or too down.

Step 3

In this step, I added hair. True, hair is kind hard to make without an example… But you can just make some random lines and triangles around the head! But long ones. Not too long but not too short. Like this.

Yes, I did the hair short, but I wanted it to look like a girl with short hair:)

I did a sweater too. It looks cool on the character.

I added pupils too and eyebrows.

Step 4

Now, we have to color it! I will start with he skin and the hair.

I colored the pupils too but with blue this time! And the sweater

Now, I went to the sketch layer, added another layer and Clipped it. Then I colored it with a darker color than the sketch one. Like this.

Step 5- THE TWIST

Okay, this is the twist of the drawing! I did tears too! With a special pen. I will show you the code.

code, not mine.

I didn’t made this pen, but it is useful when you draw tears. I will show how I made.

It looks very messy, I know. But that’s the best I could do.

Step 6

The shading now! I tried to do the hair shading too. I will show in another article how to shade hair. It might be my next article. So, this is how I did the shading.

Step 7

The last step!! The background. I made it myself. I usually make myself the backgrounds. This is how it turned out!!

I hope you liked it!
