Hey guys! It's been a week since the last entry! Now this one will be a
Tutorial about Drawing Women hair! I'm going to show you some
basic shapes, where to
put the hair,
how hair works and
how to sketch in a easy way the
movement of hair. Let's do this!
For first step in this tutorial we will need to draw some faces, so we can start to work on this:
OK, there are our faces, front view and side view, now in the
second part we can see in
blue lines the marked area of
hair source. This is a guide about from where the hair comes from. so let´s continue with this:
So now in the
Third step we have to make some lines outside the head to mark where will be the limits of the hair
(Points 1, 2 and 3). Now in
point number 4 look at the arrow, this will be the source point of your hair, from this you can start drawing the limits of the hair as seen on the
Fourth Step. Always try to add lines starting from
point number 4, always depending on the place you've drawn it, it can give more realism to the hair, so we can start to add more lines and
detail the front part of the hair:
Now at the
Fifth step we must add a line where the front hair will be
(point 1) and like I said before, adding more lines in the hair direction
(point 2) will give more realism to it. In the
Sixth step we must add the lines to detail more the hair, always remember to guide yourself by the source point.
The number of lines is always up to you, but remember to detail the hair as most as you can to give it more realism.
And for finishing, let's take a look at some
Hair movement.
Always try to remember the
direction and the
forces of the wind, that's one of the things that affects the most when drawing hair comes out, it takes some practice to understand some
movements and
adding dynamism to the hair you're drawing. Always
take some references about hair, if you want to try something weird, do it but... it can sound a little bit boring, but
try to learn the most normal hair styles first, so you can use that to create your own and add more personality to your characters.
I hope you liked this tutorial! I'll be back with a new article the next week, so I'll be on
Social Media adding some cool things and some process about my related work! See you soon!
