EDIT: Someday... someday, I'm going to do a better anime tutorial since this one is so ugly. D:

Okay, so I wanted to do this for a while, and I finally ended up doing it. It started off good and then I kind of just got lazy at the end. It took me while, nevertheless. I put it under the digital art category merely because I drew it in Photoshop CS2, but you can use this for traditional drawings tool. Some of the drawings I really don't like, but I'm not going to spend more time on it when it already took me a few hours to do. Also, if I add more information to the tutorial, it'll be WAY too long. Therefore, I hope it's helpful the way it is.

Aww, yeah. Scanners are pretty nice to have. You should try and see if you can get one in the near future.

Yeah, I've started to use them a lot more. This is an old tutorial, so that was how I drew before I began to use them.

That's okay! Mistakes help you learn. There are a lot of mistakes in this old tutorial, and I'm sure that if I were to make a new tutorial, I could correct them. Just keep practicing and don't give up. You already know that the eyes are too high, so next time, lower them. You're already improving by being able to see what is wrong.

Can you do this with Paint tool Sai?

ember-snow In reply to Masterdude21 [2011-12-07 04:00:02 +0000 UTC]

You mean if it's possible to draw this way in Paint Tool SAI? If so, then why not? Yeah, it's possible. If you mean that you'd like a video tutorial on this using Paint Tool SAI or some other tutorial variation, then I'm sorry, but I'm too busy right now with finals.

NikosanNako In reply to ??? [2011-12-04 19:11:19 +0000 UTC]

The only problem with my anime characters is that, I can never draw both eyes exactly the same. : (

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ember-snow In reply to NikosanNako [2011-12-05 01:17:00 +0000 UTC]

Me too! But both eyes shouldn't be exactly the same anyway, since there will be differences between both eyes (that they're mirrored, the shine is in different places, etc.). I just copied and pasted here because I was lazy, and if you want to do that with a frontal view of the face, then I can't complain since I did it too.
