The above was the description I got to work on for Creating Emmanuel.
I must say.. Working on this project has been very very helpful in my drawing as I've gotten better at drawing figures and faces from scratch. I'm a lot more confident in my ability to create faces now than I was before
If you want to see my progress on this project especially with drawing the first character "LOLA". Please click this link - https://peakd.com/hive-174301/@stephennevets/character-creation-for-run-exe-creating-lola-2
I started by drawing out his his head from basic shapes.. A circle and an inverted triangle underneath.. Then I started structuring from there.. Drawing him wasn't so hard as I'm totally used to creating guys drawings.
I resolved to giving him this packed up dreads but instead my friend wanted an "Alex Iwobi" kind of dread so I had to tweak his face along with his nose and made his eyes a bit sunken.
This was the result I got and it has been accepted..
Thanks for stopping by.
