does anyone know how i can do this!? Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Believe it or not, try looking at eyebrows!. When we are angry or making an effort, the center of the eyebrows go down!. When we are in pain or experiencing fear or stress, the outsides of the eyebrows go down!. Try doodling those, and you will see what I mean!. Once that is established, try doodling a face with the outside of the eyebrows down, and with the lips open to reveal gritted teeth!. You don't grit your teeth unless you are making an effort or coping with stress, so the whole face, in fact the whole body, plays into it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Well, to draw expressions that you don't know by heart, look in a mirror and draw it immediately!. Then, draw the rest of the body, and BAM! Your done!Www@QuestionHome@Com Get "The Artist's Complete Guide to Facial Expression," by Gary Faigin!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
