SEXY SKULL


somewhere under an hour. done in ebony [with, unfortunately, no eraser to be found]

i think the part i enjoy drawing the most from the human skull are the teeth. good thing there's a lot of them! the back area of the skull was also quite enjoyable to define due to how free-flowing the shadows were in the reference i used. they're almost like quick brush strokes. bones are a fun subject to draw in general, though. they're one of my favorite things to study.

i think i ended up squashing the general form a little bit .. i think i have a tendency to do that often when i do studies. hopefully i'll drop this habit in the future!
