More Ariel...

I watched The Little Mermaid again recently and wanted to try my hand at drawing Ariel again. I think I'm getting more consistent at matching her facial proportions. Practice practice practice!!

Original sketch dump #03

 A bit of pose drawing and some expressions a bit later. Took some inspiration from the TV show I was half watching simultaneously, to practice capturing the essence of a pose quickly.

Just experimenting with a bit of squash and stretch in the face.

Finally some original drawings without any ref pictures. I've only included the ones I didn't think were atrocious, and there are a couple in here I'm really happy with.


I started experimenting a bit with eye shapes, but eventually started doing whole faces and poses as well. This session highlighted how far I still am from where I want to be, since these expressions still weren't coming to me all that naturally. Need to keep practicing and get out and find more inspiration especially!! I definitely to broaden my range of what I draw too.


One step at a time!

Rapunzel

More expressions from Disney expression sheets... this time Rapunzel. I'm happy with a larger percentage of them than my previous ones, so I guess I'm getting slightly better at drawing with this style. Woo progress!

Mother Gothell

Facial expressions of Mother Gothell from Disney's "Tangled", from an expression sheet found on the web. Not so happy with these, except for the middle left one. Still need a lot of practice with eye placement, especially with tilted heads.

Aladdin & Ariel

Aladdin

Wanted to practice drawing Disney characters to get a good sense of how they're constructed, and also because they capture great expressions without a whole lot of detail. Found some expressions sheets online of Aladdin and Ariel and copied them as best I could. Some I'm happy with, most I'm not. Still good practice.
