More manga style stuff today, 90% from imagination; just looked at a couple of 'How to Draw Manga' PDF's to get some proportions and measurements.

Just warming up.

Trying out some hair blending; successful in some parts, messy in others. The hair shines don't have much pop, I think the gradation from white to dark is too spaced out.

Scanned this one at each stage since I was worried my hand would slip and I'd screw it up.

Turned out ok for a first attempt at a full manga figure from imagination.

I felt strangely melancholic after the life drawing session, wasn't that happy with my drawings but usually that doesn't bother me - maybe I'm a bit burnt out, over tired or something. I'm pretty happy with how my pen and marker stuff is going though; can only get better from here!
