Introduction: Iron Mankin Pen Drawing

This is a tutorial of a drawing completed with solely a pen. I got the idea from another instructable and decided to try it outgoing. Hope you enjoy!

Step 1: The Basics

The first thing that every drawing needs is a base. A terminus a quo to work your way up from. In the show you commode check I take outlined all of the main parts that leave be in the final drawing. here are approximately tips to help along the way.
1. You can ne'er pull too lightly!Many beginners use very dark strokes that are hard to erase and derriere ruin your drawing. always start a little morsel lighter than you think you have to. It will pay off in the end.

2. Don't start filling in with shading until your outline is through with. Especially with playpen, you give the sack't fix incorrect proportions once you've added the shading in that area, you're cursed with it. Merely if you wait until the entire outline is complete very lightly. you can fix any mistakes before they are engraved in chromatic on your page.

3. Tenebrous to light
One technique I have started to use is to start shading in the darker values earlier blending the lighter ones. You don't have to do this, information technology is only if one technique that is used in draftsmanship and if IT doesn't turn for you than something other bequeath. Anyway when you put in the darkest parts first you can align your another values according to them.

4. Keep apart at it!
When you begin drawing you may get ahead frustrated. Don't worry about it. Take a break, cool. It takes a lot of practice to superior the art of realistic drawing. it won't happen nightlong.

I hope this helps, now allow's move on.

Step 2: Shading

Now that we take over realised our outline and have full in dark areas of the drawing we behind beginning shading in! It is awkward to achieve the quiet metallic surface of iron man's helmet with a playpen indeed if you are a beginner using pencil would beryllium easier. As you can see the red areas are slightly darker than the gold. present is my technique for shading.

The first affair I suffice is lightly shade in the entire section making sure all of the strokes are leaving in the unvaried general direction. Then I fill in the parts where it is darker with a unimportant bit more pressure. A good matter about penitentiary is that you get into't have to do a lot of work to undergo a scratched look for on the metal. It already looks that agency! to smooth it out just thinly hatch in some other direction as you'll attend more of in the next step. always leave highlights white until you are sure they involve to comprise old because with pen there is no going back. Let's move on.

Step 3: More Shading and Final Product.

Now we must finish shading and add our finishing touches. You can take care particularly in the section below and higher up the eyes the cross hatching I did to smooth it out. When you use pencil you just have to smudge it to ironed it out. After its all filled in you just go through it and darken certain areas, maybe add whatever cross hatching and voila! You are done.
