Question

Answer 1

Understanding perspective is probably the most important aspect of this area. The tip of the finger starts large and gradually shrinks smaller in size going down the finger to the hand and past the arm to the body of the subject. Basically just draw a circle on the middle of the paper then draw another circle slightly a bit smaller in scale moved slightly upward to make the edge of the knuckle and then behind that, draw a three fingered fist (use your imagination on the scale) on the tip of the finger draw a horizontal crescent line and parralel it (shaped like a chewed off fingernail) and the perspective gives it a fingernail look. Forget the arm basically scale the body of the subject down to make it look like the arm is hidden behind the fist. You may be able to fit in a partial elbow though. Do your usual shading and there you go. Any questions, just go ahead and email me at nocturnalman@graphic-designer and I will send u a jpeg sample.

Answer 2

this is a simple exercixe in perspective drawing. The nearest object to you is the largest, the most distant is the smallest. Simply one point perspective.Select your horizon and a point on that line. In the foreground draw a square which will represent the hand. now draw back to the horizon the four corners of the square so they converge at your selected point. This cone like shape is the structure for the arm. In the top right corner of the square draw a smaller square - this is the tip of the finger. By drawing around these structures you can create an arm, sleeve, etc. which will appear to recede and give the appearance of pointing.Somewhere along that cone shape you can introduce an arm, shoulder,head etc. Keep thinking all the time that you are drawing a shape that contains the hand, arm, etc. With practice you will succeed.

first this is easy you have to break down the components of the theme, get you self a fairly large picture of the poster, uncle SAM wants you, this is a war poster and it has the best pointing finger in history. the size this image to be a cut out and hold it at arms length at the person that you wish to draw. find the hand proportion in relationship to your wants to see how much of the person behind the hand, now say you have the hand on paper at this point then study with the cut out of the hand in full size how it show what you want to see of the image of the person behind it, good luck

Answer 4

The best advice I can give you is this. ONLY DRAW WHAT YOU SEE!!! NOT WHAT YOU KNOW IS THERE! I am an artist and once you get over that you will draw much better.

Answer 5

Use of foreshortening. You must spend time actually looking at whatever it is you want to draw. Most people rush to put pencil to paper too quickly, when what they really need to do is look, look and look!

Answer 6

(),,,,,() ---Ears ( o o ) ---Face o( _)o ---Body/Arms O,,,,O---Legs My bunny is kinda weird looking... Ignore the little commas between the ears and legs, it wouldn't space evenly so I put them there.

Answer 7
