Hello people, this is my new portrait drawing with ball point pens. I am using more and more red color in my drawings now because i think its looking pretty nice.
Combining colors are actually pretty difficult in this kind of drawings.
Those blues on top of lips and below looks kinda werid.

Here are some process shots:

Is there a screen in the graphic tablet you are using? Or are you using a graphics tablet connected to a computer? So are you looking at the computer while drawing on the graphics tablet? Isn't that difficult? I used a friend's graphics tablet yesterday, but it was very difficult. It is difficult to look at the computer screen while drawing something on the graphics tablet. How are you doing? @masummim50

hi, i have both actually. at the beginning like everybody else i bought a non display tablet. That was about three or more years ago.
After i got a little better and saved up some money i bought the cheapest display tablet possible.
I use them both now. and yes, its very hard to draw on non display tablet but if you practice enough you should feel more comfortable. There are some rules like how to hold the tablet and pen.
Check those out. might help

Thank you. It was a good, revealing answer.

you are welcome

Beautiful colors, nice portrait. 👍

Uhh, love it ! :) However, in the final image i suggest to use some crop and whitebalance to make colors even closer to the real drawing. (Even if every screen is different, with some good option u can closing to it)

thank you for the suggestion. i whiten the drawings a little bit and increase brightness and sharpen, because with good light the drawing looks like the first picture. my mobile camera is not very good actually and the picture quality that the camera takes is quite low as you can see.
