Skulls, Noses and Lips and a great painting process all done by Griffinfly!

The skull model is a google sketch up model you can grab from 3d warehouse.
If you do the skull studies I would suggest throwing some eyes into the skull for an added bonus and it gives an awesome creepy personality to the skull. It’s something I picked up from my kickass teacher Erik Gist.
If you are having trouble reading the words click on the high res image, and then copy the image location, and open another tab, paste in the url bar, and wala! If you still are having trouble I’ll link to the deviantart:

Anon asked for some advice about eyes, and I… may have gone a bit overboard, ahahaha. I hope it turned out at least a little worthwhile!
This is a great guide! I’d like to make one small note though—when drawing the pupil in profile in a realistic style, it should be slightly recessed in the iris.
But sometimes it just works to have the pupil right next to the cornea in a cartoony style, so it’s up to you for whatever you’re going for.
Sharing another tutorial for those interested. :) (I know this isn’t about the female form, but I get a lot of requests for resources on drawing people in general, so I thought for those who might be interested, I’d share it in case they haven’t seen it reblogged yet. :) )
