I tried to copy different male models from 10men magazine
Looking at pretty boys and the conventional male helped me
draw just a little.
An attempt at Taylor Lautner. A slight obsession with the Twilight
books and films were a great influence for me choosing my male muses.
Rpatz is the conventional manly man, his face is very angular, perfect for
drawing, and a great similarity to architecture.
Being obsessed with illustration over the summer, and with the tons of practice I had I thought illustrating male faces would be a breeze. I was wrong. there are so any differences between the male and female anatomy, and even though us women carry a lot more lumps and bumps the males flat contours have proved more difficult to draw. Using a fine pencil, barely touching the paper creates perfect delicate lines, beautiful and soft exactly what is needed to create a pretty female face. But a man's face. A male face has angular features, hard and structured. The same features can't be created with the same fine pencil. But I will not be beat. Practice makes perfect as they say.
