Yeah, at first I didn't see anything but empty space, then I zoomed in. Very realistic! And the eyes!

I know! I love the eyes! I want to draw and paint like this, but I'm still getting used to my Wacom tablet, so it will be a while.

Hah, me too! Though I've had my Intuos Pen & Touch for... almost a year?! Wow, time flies. At least I've just learned how to draw more realistic hair!

Did you learn through YouTube videos, or just by looking at pictures? I'm trying to find a good place I can learn from.

Mostly I practised a lot, looked through some guides and maybe three videos. Here's a good one: youtu.be/p1jrRsdPHLg.

Thanks for the vid :) And it's that dreaded word, again... "practice". One of the most hated, but necessary word, that artists need.

Yup. I remember how I used to draw ponies, I've still got an old notebook. God, I was terrible! Okay, maybe not as bad as some of my friends, but that's probably because I was looking at reference pictures while drawing. Also, I can't draw humans at all. I really need to practise drawing them more.

Lol, my drawing notebooks are full of really crappy attempts at humans, ponies and backgrounds. I am decent with humans and a little better at drawing ponies. I need a lot of work, and I'm always having to use references.
