Not me by SoupiBuddi

I really want an epic leather jacket like the people have in the Matrix or Jotaro from jjba because that'd be cool

I, end up drawing people who have the same hairstyle and color and facial features as me because it's easy, because I'm the only person near me that I can pose and study so now it's my default human unfortunately

I could look up images sure, but I like to draw average looking people and everyone on like pintrest is like a supermodel or edited to look like one ;-;

dude i love this pose you look like you just came out of matrix movie haha, i love jotoro's jacket its so cooll, but idk how i feel about his hats.. they always are like.. half hat half his hair?? or maybe the hat forms around his back hair? idk

i understand that model thing too, i just end up drawing myself as defalt for clothes things or whatever i need to say cause its easier then finding a super model cause their all not average. ive been drawing alot of old men traditionally cause its fun

@VampireRat
Thank you, I was practicing poses and composition but also definitely just wanted to draw an epic outfit B)
I've always imagined Jotaro's hat is glued on to his head somehow lol, or maybe the hats have hair glued to the hat because fashion

Yeah same, I've been wanting to think about my fashion more and also practice drawing different clothes, maybe trying to draw my actual body type and color palete (Like hair and skin undertones) rather than refrencing a random person is better-

-because I get a better idea of how I might look.

I hardly ever draw older people, or people of different races and ethnicities, generally every person I draw looks the same lol, I really need to have more variety in humans

yeahhh i think its somewhat scary drawing other races and culture cause you're less aware of cause its easy to get wrong, but also its more fun too, cause its not just a white fellow or young beautiful person and its not always the same thing i watch videos or look up tips on drawing ethnic facial structures alot and sometimes make up different ones like aliens of some sort, it can be really fun tbh

Cool drawing!!
I can DEFINITELY relate to the difficulties of finding normal looking, non-super model reference photos ;-;

@VampireRat
Yeah I agree, I think the thing a lot of people get wrong with drawing other races when they're used to drawing just white people is that some other races have different proportions and bone structure, especially in the face, and also some differences in muscle structure too
(I watch a lot of anatomy/medical videos on yt haha)
