Artist's Comments

I have wanted to re-sketch this guy since the first pic I did of him was my original template for how I imagined Yuuzhan Vong to look.
I tried incorporating a mixture of a couple of styles, new and old, into this piece.

Still unfinished as of yet and I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to for her wonderful tute on how to sketch hair. It's always been a bit of a stickler for me, and I know this isn't the best example ( I imagined his hair to be quite straw-like) but there is one strand or two in there I thought worked out nicely ;)

Edit: I messed about with this pic a bit more this morning so i've extended his forehead a bit more, as per suggestion ( thankyou!). I've also added some more hair to the back of his head and cleaned this up in PS.

Awesome redraw, ~blue~ !! I love the detailing and contrasts in this--wonderful definition of the facial planes. And I am sooo flattered and gratified that the tutorial helped--the hair looks absolutely great! Yet another :+fav: here! :D

The hair's nice, but if you don't mind me pointing it out, I think that his forehead should slope higher

Very nice! Wow you really worked into those details. The eyes are wonderful. but then you always do nice eyes. I also like the texture in the brow ridge and the hollows of the cheeks!

Thanks very much :hug: The eyes were actually the part I was thinking of altering among other things. Though im probably gonna do that digitally before comitting to paper.

No mind at all :) I also thought this, I tend to sketch them with a little more of a humanized skull to them, but it's also worth testing out in digital. Thanks!
