@Cricketsparkz Like for my oc, he has specific eye shape and nose shape, curly hair and freckles and if i do those 4 yeah it kinda looks like him. So when drawing a character i get multiple references of the char and flip through them and draw. Big process of drawing is just looking @ stuff
@Cricketsparkz I feel you on that, what really helped me for character likeness ironically was working on my ocs more. Like i got superfocused on getting looking them right and i just started analysing what feature combinations for what characters/people make it looks like them
@itfszip Also having 1 "trash" sketchbook is great where you make quick sketches and just never look at them again until enough time has passed where you can laugh at yourself
@itfszip Lowkey i just draw the same thing again, like sketch out the same thing multiple times and i go back to basics, drawing 1 million cubes. Looking back at older work with a critical eye also makes me go huh yeah i do linework better now, i sketch faster etc etc..
