Hi! Is There Any Chance That You'd Be Willing To Do A Tutorial On How To Draw Or Colour Noses? I Adore

Hi! Is there any chance that you'd be willing to do a tutorial on how to draw or colour noses? I adore the way you paint, and thought I'd ask since I can never do noses right. 😅

Hey there!

Noses can be as hard to draw as hands, I can see why one would struggle with them. So here’s a tutorial that will hopefully teach you a thing or two!

When I draw a nose from the front (which is 99% of the time) I like to start with the nostrils, because they are the most important and most visible part of the nose. Then I just make an outline of the shape by drawing the columella (bottom part of the nose between the nostrils), and the ala (side parts). I put some base color at the bottom of the nose and some lighter color at the bridge of the nose. Then I clean everything up and add some highlights at the tip of the nose and the sides of the ala, like shown.

For drawing a nose sideways you should think of the nose as 2 bubbles and a tube, it helps a lot. Then draw the nostrils and erase the lines of the circles that are not needed. In this drawing I assumed the light comes from above, so a shadow would form under the nose.

Here are some examples of the best noses that I’ve drawn:

Tip: when drawing a face it’s important to remember that the skin on the nose is a bit more pink/red than the rest of the skin!

Also, if you’re struggling a lot draw with a reference! Look up some pictures of noses and try to replicate the photo, that’s how I learned to draw noses.

Here are some cool videos to help you:

Tuesday Tips - EARS In storyboards, I often don’t put too much thinking into drawing ears. I mostly draw them as shapes. The only time I really need to know the ins and outs of ear anatomy is when I draw an over-the-shoulder shot. I never wanna draw attention to it, but a poorly drawn ear WILL stick out. Other than that, you can only simplify something adequately if you know it well. Maybe I’ll do another posts later on “cartooning” ears or modifying ears. Message me if you have requests. Norm

Hand Tutorial by Riley Horne

tutorial on how I draw side profiles !! :)

(this is just for a general no-perspective drawing!)

I've never drawn or done turtorials so I'm sorry if this is confusing!!! please let know if you have any questions, and I'm sorry if my hand writing is hard to read!

I gathered up some art tips I've learned over the years about figures and proportions for someone this morning- wanted to share in anyone else finds it useful!

Tuesday Tips - WATCH YOUR BACK! A reminder to not forget the large muscle groups in the back. They add structure and clearly influence the silhouette in different positions. Of course, I used a very muscular character to show more clearly those groups, but every body types will have those muscle groups underneath. -n
