ColoredPencilPortraitTutorial

Here it is, like I promised! My first tutorial. (I don't count the graphite pencil portrait one cause it's not good and it's not even finished. I'll scrap it -_-)

Anyway, this tutorial shows how I drew this: [link]

The stock image used as a reference: [link] by ~akai-hinoiri

It's just the way I did it, it doesn't mean it's the best way but a lot of people were interested in seeing a tutorial about it so I decided to make it.

This is also a contest entry for #Traditional-Artists's tutorial contest

I just hope I didn't write too much, but there are also a lot of pictures. Sorry if some of them aren't the best quality, I couldn't scan the drawing all the time. My scanner is A4 and the drawing is around A3 so it would take a lot of time to stitch the parts together all the time.

At first I thought about making the background of the tutorial white with some bubble brushes in the background but then I figured using the dA color scheme would suit it better

I hope you'll find it useful and please ask if you have any question!

P.S. The title wouldn't fit otherwise so I had to type it without spaces.


Edit: My tutorial has been translated to Russian. You can check it out here: [link] You need to register to be able to see it, but if you are Russian you should really do it, it's a great forum with lots of helpful stuff.
Edit 2: The translation to Russian can also be found here: [link] And you don't need a registration for this one.
