It's Been a While! (Tsu's Sketchbook)

Try looking at different peoples' noses? Whether upturned, more triangular, hooked, etc.

Not sure what you mean with the celebrity thing?

I do have an issue with noses...I just don't find them at all appealing hahaa so whenever I try to draw a different one like a bulbous one, I hate it and try to morph it into a smooth nose I can stand to look at. I'll take some time to study some more unique facial features ^^ Thanks for the advice

Just a point to be made. Faces aren't perfectly symmetrical. Even ignoring differences in lighting, hair, clothing, etc, facial features and expressions differ on one side vs the other.

Oh I see!

Well, thank you for that ^^ I'll keep trying

I've been really staring at noses lately haha

Here's a small piece. Tried my hand at a larger, rounder nose with a fuller face

The sketch for it

Finished bust


And something totally different because I've really been getting into doing more cartoony works

[Tsuhara_Kinozuk]

Starting some nose studies

[Tsuhara_Kinozuk]

Just practicing some different lighting (this is just with my finger on a memo app on my phone)

Giving this thread some activity

Sketched up an idea for a crown of horns essentially

Colored it really quick and I like the color scheme I used a lot

[Tsuhara_Kinozuk]

I'm gonna bump this thread with a quick piece I just did and am pretty proud of
