For traditional artists:
- Draw head
- Erase head
- Draw another head that you don't like as much as the first one
- Draw the body
- Run out of space for the body
One of the drawing professors I pose for told his students it's better to start with the torso instead of the head to keep things in proportion. Advice I did not end up following to be honest lol
Then you resize the body,then you use the liquify tool,then you undo it,then you scrap everything and go to sleep,then the next day it kinda looks good but you don't have the energy,then you remake everything,then you forget to post it
What sucks is when I draw how I was trained to, and start with sketching basic shapes to lay out the whole composition first, and the head STILL comes out too big.
oh ho ho I just do that on accident WITHOUT resizing
for SOME reason I press harder when drawing the first circle for the head than the rest of the body (also I almost never do sketches to lineart, sometimes I tell myself I'll do it but end up still using the sketch as the final lines)
Every. Single. Time. I always think my drawings look good until I get them onto my iPad, and then I resize something just to see how it looks, and realize how bad it actually was. 😂
