[CM wip] Facial expressions is my favorite part to draw and where I spend the most time. That’s why most of my artwork consists of portraits or close-ups. I enjoy telling a story through visuals and character emotions (since I’m not great at writing sobs🥲) How about you? Care to share?🫣~ - ThreadSky

Ohh I am the same as well! I start my drawings with the facial expression because that's the strongest imagery I envision and if I don't visualize it right I usually give up on the rest of the drawing and need to restart again 😅 also hii always love your linework Ken!

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

It's so fun to draw! And oh god, that's so me, restarting the entire drawing but with the anatomy. It's the most infuriating part😭
HI HI!!🥹💛💛

brattywitch9.bsky.social•110 days ago

I enjoy drawing portraits for this reason too! I also believe the eyes make or break an anime/manga character. Yours looks awesome!

uhh-uhoh.bsky.social•109 days ago

While healing my relationship of art, I think what I like to draw is expression and gestures. I would ask myself as to what would this character do as of the moment or why/how would they react to the situation

And with an answer, I tend to put too much more work on myself 😭

uhh-uhoh.bsky.social•109 days ago

Also your WIP is so beautiful, I love how you apply subtle wrinkles on his face!! 😤

saltedguppy.bsky.social•110 days ago

im still experimenting with colors and composition—really wish to improve my storytelling and expressions 🥹 (plus fundamentals cough blood)—i really love how u draw everyone’s faces, literally can feel their emotions 🥺🫶

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

Colors can play a big role in expressing emotions in drawings too! I'm still struggling with coloring 😭. Each of us has areas in drawing that we need to improve. Let’s do our best! Thank you so much! Your drawing is amazing as well! (Your Caelus is so pretty🥺🫶)

saltedguppy.bsky.social•110 days ago

Beautiful work! I love starting with facial expressions too! Tho, I have a habit of starting with the face first and then having a hard time attaching a body. 🙃💪🦵🦶

tyrant-ula.bsky.social•110 days ago

Facial expressions are very fun!!! They’re slowly growing on me so they might be a favorite of mine too. I’ve been practicing and experimenting with them a lot more lately and its so fun!!

baewin.bsky.social•110 days ago

I like drawing PECS and SHOULDERS and MUSCLES!!!!

defragmentise.bsky.social•110 days ago

I feel like my faces are my strongest point but I also feel that I don't draw them expressive enough... what a conundrum haha. But I like drawing faces a lot, so I'd like to improve too

I'm not good with drawing stuff, but I sure excel in writing fanfictions. I just don't post them yet because I feel insecure about it. Maybe some time later, when I feel confident posting them. 😅

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

Oh! I can relate to that with drawing. I have a bunch that I'm not confident enough to share yet ugghh I hope you find the courage soon! Take your time !🥹

yellowbells57.bsky.social•110 days ago

Thank you, it means a lot to read that from you 🥰🥰

dalchi09.bsky.social•110 days ago

I can see you love to draw the facial expressions in your artwork! That's one of the reasons why I love your art so much ☺️🧡. I also think facial expression is such a strong point of art, and also SO difficult to catch and draw the right way.. I should keep practicing.🤓

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

Thank you so much, Dalo-nim!! 🥹🤍 Your drawing tells such a rich story with the incredible amount of detail you put into the environment! I love adding details to my drawings too, but it can definitely be a bit painful sometimes ughhh😭

savvizual.bsky.social•110 days ago

THIS IS SO COOOOLLL. The line work on the hair has me envious /pos Bravo

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

I spent about 15 to 20 minutes drawing his face btw😭
I just need to get it right🧎

luckycl0ver.bsky.social•110 days ago

I'm struggling with line art since my sketch is always so messy it leads to unconnected lines 😔 but I really love drawing expressions as well!! Though I hope to be as good as you one day because- wow. Amazing work

cfeather.bsky.social•110 days ago

me too!! faces are the most fun and interesting part to draw for me it's hard to stay motivated drawing a piece if i dont like how the face looks lol... i really like how expressively you draw yours!

cfeather.bsky.social•110 days ago

lately ive been trying to draw more fullbody compositions and its so difficult T T anatomy is my enemy... there's too much to work on, i'll probably be struggling with art until the end of time (although i suppose that isnt really a bad thing)

k3n999.bsky.social•110 days ago

Same here! I'm currently practicing drawing gestures and dynamic poses. The process is tough, but I know it'll be worth it in the end 😔✊
