Description I FINALLY got a consistant look for Ernie, so I did a quick little turnaround. His hair is a bit ambiguous, as it turns in space kinda like how Mickey Mouse's ears don't make sense? Yeah. It's kinda like that. XD

consistency is an art all of its own, and it is one I have trouble mastering.

Love that back 3/4 view! The way that little curl/spike from the profile follows as a solid shape--gold. I have such problem's with guy hair consistency. Great to see a really clear example of how that should work.

Thanks so much! I love back 3/4 views XD for some reason they're fun, and I dunno. Yeah I waas having hair consistancy issues with Ernie in all my latest pieces, so I figured I'd draw up a consistant reference. Though it still isn't quite consistant in this XD Cuz I always draw his hair at the same angle regardless of face angle; like Mickey Mouse ears

lol this would have helped me a lot about 24 hours ago when i was doing that meme. i was going to draw ernie but for the life of me i couldn't get his hair correct.

its that awkward curve it does out in the front. i don't like constantly drawing in side angles, because i find them to easy, but when you try and tackle that hair-do at a 3/4ths angle looking up or down, and your not used to it, lol good luck.

Like I said, the points of his hair are always in view. You mentioned Mickey Mouse's ears.

By that, I meant that it always shows up no matter where is head is positioned.

Aw, thanks. I use guidelines to make sure all the elements align n.n It helps doing it on Photoshop or Open Canvas or any program with layers n.n

psychoplumbers In reply to ThirdPotato [2010-01-30 20:10:23 +0000 UTC]

No problem
You can put the guidelines on a layer and the borders and the other things on more layers.
When I have to draw something on Photoshop I have the original sketch layer and then I add border, colour, yadda yadda on other layers. Sometimes I think I use too many layers though my pics turn out quite well approximately 75% of the time...
Your icon is cute *w*
