Here are some of my favorite tutorials on realistic drawing!

Journal Tips


:iconimaginee: =imaginee
Linda Huber, aka, imaginee, has created some of my favorite pencil art on dA.

Check out her journal for some fantastic tips on drawing!

:iconaramismarron: ~aramismarron
Jose Carlos G. Mendozo is another incredibly talented pencil artist on dA. Although I'm not a fan of Christina, you can't deny that he has created some amazing portraits of her and others.

His journal also has some great tips on drawing you should check out!

Video Hair Tutorials


:iconpat-mcmichael: ~pat-mcmichael
Pat McMichael has a way of making portraits that are all his own. While they look like the person he is drawing, you also know immediately that it is a Pat McMichael drawing.



He has a couple of videos that are extremely helpful:

How he uses an "eraser pencil" to create light strands of hair: [link]

But yeah, you're right, Nicolien's tutorials are REALLY good, they are well worth a professional drawing book.

I know that we are worlds apart
so all I can offer to you are words
honest ones, words from my heart
to close the gap between our worlds
