If you haven't yet worked it out, this weekly thread involves everything to do with the FACE or HEAD. Getting the face or head features is one of the most important skills to learn as an artist, especially as a figuretive or character artist. Basicly you mess up, and its totaly noticable. Theres nothing worse than creating a great piece of art, except all the character faces look dead or lifeless.
So here's the plan, each week I'll give you a project that involves a face or head, this could be anything from basic line structure to full colour images, realistic human face to animated hamsters, stone bust to famous faces such as charlie chaplin or sweeny todd. Basicly everything goes, and it may not be just one image, some projects may include multiple faces, similer to the spartan thread.
Also becouse this is very very new thread, if people wish to participate by adding some ideas, your more than welcome to comment and of course to crit, and depending on how things progress, there may also become a pole added.
Project 2- INTOXICATION
Rules
1. Create a face of a well known type of fantasy character, basicly any humanoid type character from a fantasy world (eg- orc, elf, dwarf, human, sorcerer, etc..)
2. You must show character under some kind of intoxication (drunk, drugs, poisoned,etc..)
3. Head and face only, hands are only aloud if it helps with expression.
4. No other items must be used, so no beer glasses, or smoking devices.
4. Have fun :)
