Drawing Faces with Symmetry Tool in Procreate

1. Drawing Faces with Symmetry Tool in Procreate: Hey, what's up, guys? Welcome back. My name is Dave Reed, aka drug-free Dave, you may know me from Instagram or YouTube or I do a lot of 2D and 3D tutorials. I'm glad that you're here joining me in Brooklyn, New York. I have a really fun class today. This is a 2D drawing class. It's all about the symmetry tool. So if you've never used the symmetry tool, It's very fun. There's so much you can do with it. You can actually use the symmetry tool to do like Mandela's and things like that. So the symmetry tool is very useful. And today we're going to do faces. We're gonna do a more male masculine type face. We're gonna do more feminine typeface. And then we're just gonna do a fun whatever mask, which is what I really, really enjoy doing. Just like, kinda like out there, weird, fun, crazy masks. You can do all of that. And I really like African masks too. So some of my inspiration does come from when I studied African mask and I love going to the museum and I'll just take pictures of things and then I'll just come home and draw them. The thing about symmetry, obviously, everything is going to be symmetrical. So it does take some getting used to, but once you do get used to it and once you get used to join that way and thinking that way, creating that way, it's a lot of fun. And the best part about it is it forces you to sort of think outside the box. So you're not gonna be thinking about drawing characters the same way that you always do. Because you'll let, you let the technology do a lot of the work for you. So yeah, I think it's a lot of fun and I think that you'll really enjoy once we could go in and once you kinda see the endless possibilities that you can do with the symmetry tool. So I'm gonna be using the iPad Pro 2021 procreate, which I love using Procreate as my favorite drawing app. So that's what we're going to use. But if you're using another application, as long as it has symmetry, then you can follow and you can do the same things that I'm doing. Also be sure to download my free brushes with this class. That's only if you're using Procreate my Disney style brushes, they are included. I'll include it, my finished images too, if you want to look at those and see how they are, Just make sure you download those in the class resources. But I think that's enough for the intro video. Let's move on to the next video. This will be the class project. I'll see you there. 2. Class Project: Okay guys, welcome to the class project. For this class, I just want you to create three or four through four phases are masks. We're gonna do three different phases. We're going to do male, feminine. We're just gonna do a fun whatever mask. And I'm gonna do some work, some extra things at the ends of class just so you can have a bunch of examples of different things in different ways that you can make facial features and things like that. But mainly for the class project, I just wanted to see what you do. I want to see your work. You can follow me along to the t, but of course, you can change things and you can make it as big or as little. E can have big nose, little nose, big ears. You can make horns. You can have, you can have anything you want. So just go crazy. Don't feel that you have to follow everything to the t. Of course, this artwork is for you. So I want you to be happy with it. I want you to love it and I want you to have fun designing and creating using the symmetry tool. I'd love to see your work here and also if you just play around with it after you're done with class, I'd love to see that, to please post it to the class so everyone can see it. Because I love to see your work. I think that's about it for the class project. Of course, this is a, this, this is a fun class, this is a creative class. And I want you to make sure that you're being as creative as you want, because there's no right and there's no wrong. And if you need any help or assistance, be sure to reach out to me. I'm always here to help. I'm happy to help. All right, so let's move on to the next video. This will be getting started. And we're also going to draw in this next one. We're going to start drawing. But I think video number three is always going to be getting started. Maybe I should change the name. I don't know. I don't know. I should read you that. Okay. So let's move on to the next video, getting started. Alright, so let's move on to the next video, Getting Started. 3. Getting Started: Alright, getting started. So first things first, make sure that you download the extras that I've added with the class. You just want to go to Project Resources and then you'll see it here under resources, it won't be Hero, it'll be some other things including the background. Make sure you download the background that way you can just export it, right to procreate. And I will show you what that looks like. So let's say you downloaded the background and it shows up here and your images, you just tap on that. Disregard the lion, he won't be there. And you press this and this one is checked to make sure you go to Procreate. So cent Procreate, go back to Home Screen, open Procreate. And then it will be on the top-left. So then you can tap it. And now you have your canvas is here. It's the same size as mine, three thousand, three thousand pixels. As you can see, easy-peasy. So the next thing, if you, if you're already in Procreate and you just want to import it, you just go to the wrench and then you go Add, insert a photo. Then you can insert a photo. And now we have two of the same thing. Okay? And also feel free to work in white. I'm just using this because There's less glare on the camera screen, so it's not so blown out. So it doesn't look like this because that's a little too bright. But feel free to use white if you like. So we're going to use, oh, I forgot about this thing. Let me get rid of him. Let me get rid of him. Okay, so now we have our blank canvas and we can start making some really cool stuff with symmetry. So let's go back to the wrench. And now we want to go to Canvas. And we wouldn't be able to use symmetry on this canvas. So symmetry is through the drawing guide. You turn on Drawing Guide. You might see a grid or something like that. That's fine. Once you turn that on, go to Edit Drawing Guide. Now we go to symmetry. I don t think this makes a difference. This is just the opacity of the lines. You can't see it. I usually have it around 50 thickness. Same thing just makes it thicker. I usually have it around 50 is fine. And that's it. So this is our symmetry. And I think can you change the color? I think you could change the color of the line to just keep mine on black or dark? I guess dark blue. So then just hit Done. And now you see you'll have your line here, you hit done. And you'll see this faint line in the middle of your screen. Let me just make my darker actually thickness. Turn the opacity up. And I think that's good. Oops. Get dark. There we go. I like, I like black. I like to be able to see the symmetry line. Alright, so layer-2 assisted. So when you make a new layer C, it doesn't say assisted. So if it doesn't say Assisted, then it'll, it won't be symmetry. If it says Assisted, then it'll be symmetry. We don't want to draw on the background layer. So you can go ahead and lock this layer. That's fine because we never want to draw on the background. So now this layer, tap on this layer, tap on it, drawing assist, and now it says assisted. So now you have your symmetry. Okay, so now that we have that, we can start on faces. And this takes a little bit of getting used to. But once you kinda get the hang of it, it's really fun. And it looks really, your images look really premium because they're very clean and everything is very matching. So as much as you have to be careful that things look to matching, matching and maybe like eyes are a little far apart and things like that. It's also a look, it's also a style. So just keep that in mind when you're drawing. I'm going to keep it in mind while I'm drawing. And let's see how many times I have to undo when I'm trying to get my this first face. So I'm going to use Disney sketch light because that's just a fun brush that I love to sketch with. And this one is also downloaded in the resources, my Disney style brushes. Let's do them like a wider, more masculine face first. So I like to come off the top like this. Come down. And then maybe even come out a little bit more. And then like that. So we'll do something like that. So it's essentially just one line coming out. Little bit of a curve doesn't have to be straight. And then a little bit of a curve here for his sort of bigger, bigger chin. So now we have to figure out where we want the eyes to go, which is probably the most important. Aspect. These, if the eyes look weird and the whole thing looks weird. So I like to do the ears around here. So let's say this is the halfway point of the head. I like to do the eyes a little bit further up than the halfway point. So if this is the halfway point, I'm gonna do a little bit further up. And just pretty straight line doesn't have to be super, super straight. And now I'm just going to make some, make an arch. So that's gonna be like the eye socket area, pretty much. Alright, So the nose. So for the nose, I'm actually going to start way up here for the bridge of the nose. Almost like not in the middle of this wedge. A little bit over towards the middle. So route right here. I'm going to make a line coming down, almost touching the middle line and then it's going to come out. And then it's going to come down like that. So now let's make another line coming off of this curve. So it's going to come up with this curve. Then it can be, Let's will make it, will make it round. Then a little bit of a nostril type thing in there. That's interesting. Maybe I want to do it. I just did so many of these noses. You can also come from above. Do something like that. Let's see what else can we do? Come out a little bit more than come down like that. So there's lots of different ways. There's lots of different nodes is that you can do, you can actually make the nose really wide to, you can make the nose really wide. Like so. I like to do this little line coming over. That sort of gives it the bottom part of the nose. A little love. So there's tons and tons and tons of noses that you can do. So just pick whichever one you want. I'm gonna go with. I'm gonna go with a thinner nose. So I'm gonna come down and I'm going to make the nostrils. Okay. Maybe something like that. And I always do this line that I go when I go across like that. The reason I do this line here, it sort of shows the underside of the nose. So let's make, if I make some dark nostrils here. And then I take Disney brush and then I just darken this under here. So that's like the underside of the nose. So that's why I do that little line there. Because if you're gonna make a nose, there's really no lines in our load. In our nose, it's all shadows which all shapes. There's no hard lines. So when I make this line is just to show the separation between the front part of the nose and the underside of the nose, which always just gives it a little, a little extra. Okay, so for eyes, we have our little eye sockets here. I'm going to use this line. I'm going to make a curved line right above it. Sort of sort of going down into it. There's thousands of shapes of eyes. If you want to do a different shape, go forward. I'm just going to do is sort of a simple almond shaped by. And notice I make the top really thick. I usually do the wing tip thing, but I want to try to keep this face masculine. It's hard for me. I love doing that little. I'm so used to doing cute characters. So here are the eyes. Just be careful you don't make them too, too close together. Just undo and just redo them until they look, until they look good. But of course, faces have all different lengths in-between the in-between the eyes and bigger eyes and bigger shapes. So there's no really wrong way to do it. So let's make another little line here. Okay, I think that looks pretty good. 4. Wider Face 2: So now for the mouth. So we're going to start from this line. And I'm gonna do it right in the middle. It doesn't have too much chin room, so he's going to have a sort of a smaller mouth. So one way to do the lips, you can go up a little bit. And then down, then up again. And then we're gonna come up top. And we'll meet a little bit of a curve and we'll meet right at that center line. And then we're going to make a darker bit here. Sometimes I do go over to the other side, even though it's a, even though it's symmetry, my brain still thinks I need to go back over to either side. It happens. So now for the lip, Let's start down here and then just do a line. Sort of going across. It makes it made his lips fairly big. In the middle, we're going to do another darker pass. Just tricks I learned. An mouth. When you're drawing mouse. Darker here and the corners and increases and then darker in the very middle. Okay? So I think symmetry works too. So I mean, liquefy. If you go to adjustments and go to liquefy, I'm pretty sure that you can liquefy and it will move both of them like let's say I wanted to the nostrils to be a bit wider, which I like that a little bit better. You can do that. And also let's say you wanted to change the lips. You can use you can use the little ribbon here. Free hand. You can select it that way. Once you can tap it or leave it. You go back to adjustments, go to liquefy, and just adjust your brush. And then you can, you can sort of mess with that too. You know, something just like minor changes. Liquify is great for that. I use liquefy all the time. And here are my options, but you can mess around with the options until it's right for you. I love liquefy. Okay, so let's get out of here. So back to Disney sketch light, our regular brush. Okay, so let's just make, let's just give him some eyes. Okay, so now he's got some eyes. And notice that I I sort of but the eyes a little bit towards the middle. You don't, you never want to put eyes and in the center and the center of the eyeball, you always want to air more towards the end where it's not too much because then they look kinda funny, but just err towards going in rather than going out, because then it looks really, really weird. Okay, So now for eyebrows, we're going to try to use this line here and just make one line up, one line over, one line down. And then we're just going to frame that out a little bit. So something like that. For eyebrows, ears. I usually like to start my ear right where the eye is. So I'm just going to come up. I feel like he would have more boxy ears, curb around down and then come out like that. Make a little thing like that inside. This line comes up, sort of goes towards this back, this back line. And then we're right in the middle of this line comes down. So I do all my ears this way. I just kinda like that shape. Just it works for me. Okay. So I think that's pretty good. I suppose we should give him some hair. So let's do this. Let's make an estimate. A harder line going across here. Something like this. Sort of like a little hairline that everyone has. Maybe we'll give them a beer too. So how do we want to make his hair? One thing I like to do the hair is usually never that symmetrical. So we can do a symmetrical hair like let's say we give them like let's say you do something like this. So you can do symmetrical and it kinda works. But usually I'll just go back to the layer, tap it, and take off drawing assist. And that way you can sort of like just be more free-flowing with the hair. I just think it'll look a little bit more natural if you're more fruit free flowing with the hair. And it's not symmetrical because hair is rarely ever symmetrical unless it's like part of down the front. And last thing, let's just finish this guy really quick. Eye sockets. I like to sort of bring a light line sort of underneath. Just sort of just sort of matching this line. I like to bring this out. Just to sort of open up that eye socket. If you want, you can go ahead and erase these lines. You don't really need those lines in there. And I appreciate it turns symmetry back on to do those lines underneath. Well, that's okay. Alright, So I think we're looking good. We can I'll go ahead and turn drawing assist back on. I guess it's good for you to go back and forth so you Remember where it is because sometimes it's hard to keep track of. I will just erase these. Okay. So that's pretty much like the male face. You can always adjust it. Like maybe he needs a little bit more chin, something like that. Or even I feel like this guy would be good. I erase this and I didn't make it so, so boxy at the bottom. So I think now it looks a little bit better just to polish this off. Before we move on to a different face. Let's go to our brushes and go to Disney brush to make it as big as we can. And if you're nervous about this, you can always do it on a layer underneath. Just add another layer underneath our hero layer. Tap it, makes your drawing assist is on. But remember, the hair isn't, the hair doesn't need Drawing Assist, so let's turn it back off. The hair is its own thing. So let's color in the hair. And the way that Disney brushes, if you don't, if you don't take it off the screen, then it will be even. If you do lift it up, it'll get darker. So that looks good. Maybe we can do a little bit of, uh, oops, let's turn drawing assist on. So we'll tap on the layer drawing assist. And we'll just color in the back of this year like this. And we'll color in the inside of this eye socket. Because that's like underneath their eyes where it's a little it's a little darker. We've already colored underneath the nose. Maybe we can make it a little darker just for fun. Maybe we'll do a little bit of this. And then we'll cover in the upper lip. And maybe we'll do the upper lip twice. Let's do one pass underneath. Here we go. I forgot about the eyebrows and let's do the eyebrows. Eyebrows can be very, very dark. So we can do multiple runs across the eyebrows. And if you want to do some extra, you can go around the eye. But that looks kinda weird. But it might look good if you add a line around it. But let's make it smaller. And let's just do a shadow from the eye lid on the eyeball. I always do this in all of my drawings. Shadow in there. And let's take erase. Let's turn Let's turn drawing assist off. So we'll turn it off. We'll go back to erase and we can use Disney butter at around 17. And let's just, let's go back to this main layer. And we'll turn drawing assist off. So now it's off on all the layers. And that way we can just do these little pups with the eraser. And another option is if you want to be really fancy with it, you can choose white layer above. And we use Disney butter again. So now we're using white. You can just kinda draw in a little pop of light like that, depending on how fancy you want to get. You can also just make a little dot or something like that. I think I like the erase more. Let's try it out. I like I think I like the erase. So that is our male face. And It's hard to draw these without using symmetry. It is very difficult to draw faces, and it's also very difficult. I feel like symmetry makes it easy to make bigger noses and bigger lips, and just keep everything symmetrical so you can concentrate on the proportions and doing different proportions and doing cool and interesting proportions. So this was the male face. I think the next one we'll do like a bit of a softer face, a bit of a more feminine face. So that's it for this one. The, we'll move on to that one next. And I'm excited about it. This one turned out good. Alright, I'll see you guys in the next video. 5. Feminine Face: Okay, so let's do a more feminine face. And I just want to show you exactly what I do with my files as I'm working. Because I realized this might be useful as well. So we'll bring back our, the last pace that we worked on. I added a new layer. So these are the, this is the last place I worked on. And I didn't merge them because I might want to change this. Once I'm finished with the drawing, I always wind up changing things and adjusting things. So I like to keep them separate. So what I like to do is write swipe on both of them so they're both blue. And then group them. And then I'll name them male, male face. So now we have a group that I can just minimize or hide. So now I hit plus and we can name this feminine face. We have this, but remember, the first thing that we need to do is turn on drawing assist. And remembering you can turn it on here. Drawing Assist, it stays on, the Toggle remains on here. So literally it's just turning it on within the layer. So now for the more feminine face, we'll just sort of keep it rounder and will maybe make the bottom part of the jaw a little bit thinner. So we'll go back up to Disney sketch light. So for here, let's start out with more of a rounder shape. Just started out with more of a rounder face. And then we can go maybe straight down. And for the bottom, we want to make just a nice oval. So very simple. It's just like a simple oval with the top being a little rounder, like wider than than, you know, the chin. So I think that looks pretty good to start. And of course, like I was saying, you can make it a little bit, you can make it even wider. You know, you can make a wider face. I'm more of a heart-shaped face. So many different kinds of faces, so feel free to have fun with that. Okay, so now EIS was going to do the same thing. Let's imagine that this is the center. So I want to do it a little bit above center. And I'll just do my straightest line. That was like not straight at all. So we'll do a straightest line. And then we'll do our little arch. So that will show us, that'll give us a guide as to where the eyes are. Okay, so these eyes, I think I'm going to last time I did the nose first, I think I'm going to do the eyes first. I'm going to make sure that they're out there wide enough. And I'm going to do a similar type of eye, but I'm gonna make it maybe a little bigger and a little thinner. Like this. Make sure that top one is nice and thick because I can do my nice little wing tips that I like to do. Maybe we'll come up a little bit higher on that line. So slow to undo sometimes. Let's make a little line here, and let's make another one here. So something like that. So now for the nose, we'll start up here again and we're just going to go straight towards the middle line. Then will come out. And we'll do a little nose like that. Which I don't really like. Let's see, let's make a note is that I make a knows that I like I kinda like that knows Let's put some nostrils on. So same thing like we did before. I'm just gonna kinda come out sort of like that. And this time let's just erase these. To erase this. Just so we have just straight nose. So dark and under here. That'll be like the nostril area. And you know, I do my line that meets up. This shows the under part of the nose. It's my favorite, my favorite part of the nose to draw, by the way, if you didn't know, Let's darken this up. Darken up those like the eye, the eyelashes underneath as well. Okay. So it's looking okay. So far. So let's give her some let's give her some, some, some bigger lips. So let's start here about halfway. And I'm just gonna go straight with a little bit of a bend in it like that. And I think I'm just going to add just going to come up and make it almost a dome, almost a half dome. So remember the other things I was telling you with the lips? Darker in the middle and then darker in these like little creases. Now for the bottom. Same thing. But we'll make it come in right before that little darker crease. And we'll start it will start to curve the lip, the leptin. Okay. It almost looks like, it almost looks like a mask, like an African mask because those master Beautiful. So we're gonna do, I think we'll do a mask after this. We'll just do something for fun. It might be a little creepy, but we'll see. Okay, So this is looking good. Let me go ahead and just make this a little more powerful. Okay, So now what do we wanna do next? So I think the shape of the face is looking pretty good. So I'm just making darker lines just to sort of solidify it up a little bit. And we can make the eyebrows. So let's see, maybe we want to, maybe we want to bring this up. So bring that up a little bit. Let's erase this, erase this. Maybe they don't go that far over. They just go up a little bit. We'll keep it interesting. And now we'll make the eyebrows. So let's come up like that. And we'll follow this will follow this bridge line. Then we'll just sharply just come off like that. Same thing on the bottom. We're just going to use that line that we made earlier as a guide. And we can do something like that. So that could work. And you would color them in. That could work. But let's do some other examples. Let's do some other types of eyebrows. So maybe, maybe we'll make openings in the wrong brush. Let's go back to decent sketch light. So maybe we'll do one like this. This is more putting a little more angle in it like that. And then from here, you just come off in a curve. Let's see how that looks. We'll just do a quick color in here. See which one looks better. I like that better. But she might even need some thicker eyebrows. So maybe let's see what happens if I do some lower eyebrows. And the more you do eyebrows, the more you'll just get that shape. I do my eyebrows really, really quickly because I do mostly the same shape which is coming up, going over and then coming down. And then I sort of follow that on the other side. So I think I like these the best. I'll color them in with. What is this? Disney brush. Sometimes I forget my brushes even though I made them. 6. Feminine Face 2: So I'll color them in. I think it looks pretty cool. I'll go back to Disney sketch light. And let's do some ears. So we'll make the ears tad bit lower than the, than the edge of the eye, will make them softer and rounder. So a little bit more round on top and then just sort of coming in close like that on the bottom. Not, not so much of a rounder bottom. Same thing we do the little squiggle here. This line sort of comes off and the soft and goes towards that back line. This one, this one curves around like so I love that shape. Alright, This looks good. Just looking, looking very nice. Okay, so let's go ahead and color this in and then we'll do the hair. Notice on living dangerously. There's one thing that I did forget to do, which is obviously not essential, but I like to make this bottom, this bottom part. I like to do that. So I'm actually going to erase this line, erase this line. Hopefully you can see that clearly. I'm just erasing some of these some of these sketch marks. She doesn't need a line across her forehead or across the bridge of her nose or along the edge of her eyes. So that looks good. So we'll go back to Disney brush. And I'm making it 50%. So I dropped Disney brush, the opacity just to color in this part. Alright, that looks good. Bring it back up for the lip, the upper lip. And I'll do another pass and the upper lip, just one below the lower lip, and maybe one here too. So now we're going to color in the bottom part of the nose. So look at that a couple of times. Make sure that's nice and dark. Maybe one over the top to live dangerously. So we'll make this a little bit of a shadow in the ear. Looking good, looking good. Maybe a little bit of shadow on the bridge of the nose. And maybe a little bit of a shadow here, even. And eyes. So do we want, let's make the eyes, Let's keep them, will keep your eyes straight. Let's go to Disney sketch light, not Disney and going to know why, how I chose that. Nice around. We'll give her a little bit bigger eyes and we did the guy. And then maybe we'll do a line around them. Something like that. Okay, so now let's do the same thing like we did with the hair. So I'll tap it would turn off drawing assist and what kind of haired we want her to have. So let's start from here. We will start from inside, inside the ear and come up, I think can come over and then come in. Hey, let's try it. So we'll come up, come over. And maybe we'll bring this back around. And then here, maybe we'll start right here at this edge. Come out and bring this down. Maybe meet up like that. And maybe we can do to continue just another few pops just to sort of make it look like the hair is moving. We're doing something. And then we'll come down here like that and we'll make some straight lines coming down just to sort of match up the hair and maybe we'll even do a nick. I feel like she would have a very thin neck. So again, there's a million different ways that you can do the hair, play around with it. If you wanted to do something with symmetry, you can do that. Let's do another hairstyle for her. Maybe, maybe we wanted to bangs. So for bangs, Let's turn back on Drawing Assist. And let's just make a straight line here. And we'll make the bangs sort of like that. And maybe we can do something like this. We'll do something like this. You know, there's so many different, there's so many different things you can do. And it just becomes, becomes fun at some point in time. I enjoy it and maybe we'll turn drawing assist off. And you can actually, What about this? What if you go across even what we've drawn? Something like that. Something like that. I think it looks pretty interesting. We turn drawing assist back on. So I'm making neck will make it straight down. So something like this. I could've made her ears smaller. There's a lot of things to adjust. But again, I'm just kinda showing some some samples, some examples of what you can do. Whoops, turn Drawing Assist backoff. And if this has hair, then we erase all of that detail. And then we can erase this line two. Then we can leave drawing assist off. And then we can bring the hair. Something like that. Alright. That was fun too. And again, like it's definitely like, it's definitely a look. And the more you develop and the more you get used to how to get certain looks using symmetry, then you can do all sorts of different characters with all sorts of different facial features. And it's a good way to practice that's outside of the box and I think is really, really fun. So that's the more feminine face, a little bit more of a round Earth interface. I think I'm gonna do a mask and x now this one will just be more of just for fun off the cuff. And let's see what we get. So I'll see you guys in the next video. 7. Mask: Okay, so let's do a mask typeface. And I don t know what I'm gonna do for the mask, so we're just going to fill it out. But there's endless possibilities. And let's see if we can make something really cool. So new layer drawing assist is on, it says assisted. And now I'm going to use Disney sketch light to sort of make this mask type type shape. So I'll make this a little bigger. Okay, So let's think I want to make like sort of like a shield. That's why I want to think of the face starting out sort of like a shield. Okay, So far so good. All right. So Let's see for the eyes, I wanna do, I'm going to pretty much do the same as I would do with the face, is just this is very angular. So that sort of gives it a mask type look. So let's start with that eyeline. Make it here. And we'll do this arch for the, for the eyes. Now since it's a, since it's a mask, you can really, really go extreme. So I'm going to go really extreme. Make the eyes very long. Something like that. Okay, So we're going to come down with the nose bridge. So I'm going to start up here. We'll come down towards the middle. And we want the bottom of the nose to be. So let's maybe come out and will come down and then will. So just like a shape like that. So let's try that again just so you can see what I did. Sometimes I do things sort of fast because I like to really kind of get in the flow. Let's try that again. So I came down and I'm going to come out to a point. Then I'm going to come down. Then I'm gonna come back up. And maybe we'll come down and then meet at that middle point. So it's a little different, but I still like it. So we'll make that one line to have the under part of the nose. Maybe we'll make another line here. Just to kinda give the nose a little more of an interesting detail. I don't know. Alright, I think this is looking good. So let's see, what else do we want to do? So let's start here. Let's go up a little bit from the center point down, and then maybe up. Let's make this really dark here. Now let's come down to the middle. And I might need to make this mask a little bigger. Well, let's see. Maybe I'll just come off like this. Come down like that. Let's keep it the way it is. Let's give it the way it is for now. Okay, so let's do another lip type shape. Does it need a lip? Maybe it doesn't need a lip. I think I like this. And if we want to put some teeth in there, you can do some teeth like that. For the eyes. With the eyes smaller. Where we can put the eyes like on the k, we can have them like that. Or honestly, we could also just have them like dark. Because if it's a mask, then maybe we'll make it so that it's hollow behind it. We could even do the same thing for the mouth. Okay, so, so maybe we'll put some ornaments here for his sort of like how Lions, lions have it come out like that. That's a cool shape. I do that with like lions and cats and stuff like that they stay tend to have this little round. And I just think it looks really, really cool. Okay, so maybe it will come up like this and we can do an eyebrow. So maybe something like that. And notice how I press a little bit harder so that the brush gets a little bit thicker there and even more thicker, even more thick. So I think that looks pretty good. So let's erase all of these sketch lines, loops, make the brush a little bit smaller. I think I'm just using graffiti G brush. Let's just erase this line. Will erase this one, this one. We don't really need it. Okay? So we just sort of clean it up a little bit. Alright, so let's make, so we'll make that line there. You can play around with this. You don't have to actually follow what I'm doing. Because a lot of this has just, a lot of this is just making shapes and making, making lines. And just, just sort of having fun with it. You can, you can practice. Maybe you want to put like a diamond here or a diamond type shape. And I think I want a diamond diamond desk. It's more like an arrowhead, actually. Something like that. Okay. Do I want to do anything else over here? Maybe maybe just a little mark like that. And maybe maybe something like that. That looks pretty nice. So let's make another line coming out here, like so. And let's do like a nice little curly like ram horns. So it will come off. I'm just make like a swirl and then bring it back in. Let's do some little round pops. Then maybe some smaller ones. Then maybe we'll make a little loop at the bottom. Almost like it's like it's a decoration or something. And maybe it will make some darker some darker pops in-between In-between those I don't know why. I don't know what they are. But that's the beauty of doing stuff like this. You can just kinda have fun with it. So now let's take Disney brush and wherever, whatever kind of knows you made, maybe color in the bottom of the nose. And maybe color in here. And maybe we can color in maybe this line. Maybe this. And then maybe these little ram horns, rounded, puffy kings who could be as HER2. So something like that. As you can see, there's endless possibilities. And it really opens you up to just doing some really, really cool stuff. So I hope that you had fun doing this and learning how to use symmetry and learning the tips and tricks with symmetry. Just work, work at it and make a bunch of faces. Because it can really, really help you to think outside the box, especially when you're stuck, when you're trying to draw a character and it's just not coming out, right. Try this, do like a square shape face. Do like a triangle shape, face to a heart-shaped face. Do an oval shape phase two bigger noses, smaller noses, bigger eyes, smaller eyes slanted. You can slant them the other way. Do different expressions. Do a mixture of symmetry and then not symmetry? And you will continue to get better because it'll just open up your mind. Alright, before I get too deep. So let's call this one. I will see you guys in the next video. 8. More Examples & Tips: This is just a little bit extra. I feel like I just want to change this. Because like I said, every time I finished anything that's like I want to like reduce tough kind of mouth where I want to make we've been darken up this. And what else is there anything else that I wanted to do? I don't know how at some point in time it started to become like a more feminine face. Which is interesting because I really wasn't trying to go for that. But I guess it is what it is. It's kind of interesting. I'm going to select this. And then I'm going to undo that. I really liked that. I really like those, those lips. But I want to undo because I don't think I took a screenshot or anything of the one that I actually finished with and lips. So since I didn't take a screenshot, I think I need to recreate recreate that face. See you and just never stops. Didn't literally never stops. Take g brush. If it's a mask, we can color it all in dark. And then we can take the eraser with, let's see. Let's take the eraser with Disney brush. And we'll create a better brush than that. Let's use Sketch master to. So we use the eraser and do some cool stuff on there is so much stuff you can do. Okay, so I was going to enter it there, but I do want to do one more with a different type of eyes. Just because. So let's make a, another round, the round face, which is round. And then coming to a point source of an oval but more like a point. So something like that. And let's say we want to do some different kinds of eyes. So I'm going to start out here and I'm just going to start with that, that line that I use for the eyes, sort of like that. So let's, let's just pencil in a circle. So let's say we want the eyes wider. So now I'm just going to use that circle as a guide and create the dark, the dark line that I always do on the top. And can darken this up to n. Let's draw this, let's draw the eyeballs. And notice again, It's very close to this part of the, you know, the inside of the eye. You don't want them to be in the middle. Okay. So let's do a nose. Feel like she would have fairly small nose. So maybe we want to just make a little bit darker on the underside. And let's see if we can get her smiling a little bit. I might have to erase a little bit of leaves, Disney butter. Make it a little bit straighter. Like that. Maybe we want these, maybe we want that the bridge of the nose to just come up and then wrap around. And then a line underneath like I always do. So wrapping around like that will do this line here that I always do. And then maybe another one up here. And then we can do the eyebrow. Same sort of shapes. All this is pretty much the same as the other one. For the more masculine face, I just make them thicker. But I just wanted to show you quickly. You can do eyes that are, that are opened, that are opened wider. If you wanted to do like a different expression, Let's use G brush. If you wanted to do like, you know, you could do an expression like this to something like that. Can give her like a rounder nose, Something like that. So he did wider eyes. What if we wanted to do can do something like this? You want to make them closed. Can just do something like that. You know, something with closed eyes. Super, super small nose. I can just call them kind of diamond D. Pig nose. A lot of space underneath the nose. All of these little things really, really affect the look of your character. So yeah, just keep practicing. Practice to fund the eyes maybe a little close together on that one. But that's okay. You get the idea. There's a lot you can do. Let's see if we can make them a little bit further around. I don't want to end on image with eyes super, super close together. You don't even have to do this hole. You can see if you wanted to skip this. Just make this round. Do that too. And it gets really fun when you can just go faster and faster and faster. And this will not be symmetry, but you can make the eyes, if I wanted to make them smaller. And I'll just have to find the middle. Middle point. Nash, Nash looks like a clown. Alright. So I just wanted to show you some more stuff because like I said, I can just keep going forever. Alright. Appreciate all you guys. 9. Thank You!: Alright, We did it. Welcome to the end of class. I hope that you had a fun time creating with the symmetry tool. I really, really love using the symmetry tool and I get carried away using the symmetry tool just forces me to think in a different way. And it actually sort of helps me with my 3D work too. Because when I work in 3D, I'm using symmetry all the time. It's the same thing with 2D. It just kinda makes your work easier. And then when you can just turn it off and if you want to make certain things asymmetrical, then it's no brainer. So I hope that you enjoyed it. And I hope that you keep playing around with the symmetry tool and making things and change the, you can change some of the options in the symmetry tool so that it'll be like going out like four ways instead of just two. Like it won't just be two-halves, there'll be more. There's so much with the symmetry tool that I just want to take it step-by-step. And if you want, let me know. Maybe I'll do like a class using some more options with the symmetry tool. But today I just wanted to focus on faces. There's a lot of stuff going on with faces and symmetry. So I could go on forever, but then the class will take forever. I don't know. Anyway, It's always a pleasure. I really, really enjoy teaching and I'm really glad that you guys like taking these classes because I really, really enjoy. I really like teaching you. And I really loved seeing what you make and just inspiring. That's what inspire, inspiring other people, actually inspires me to do more, to make more, to do more classes, and to just keep teaching. And it's grown to be something that I loved to do. So thank you so much for being here and spending your time with me. I really appreciate it. Even with my cheesy and chosen outros, that I don't really, I don't write these by the way. Obviously. I just like going off the cuff. All of this stuff is stuff that I'm passionate about. So I feel like I don't know, I just want it to be authentic. So anyway, again, I'll just say thank you. And as always, keep drawing, keep sculpting. I'll see you all in the next video. I'll add my socials after this. And usually I yap about it, but I'll just add them after this. Feel free to go find me on social media, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, all that stuff. We will continue the conversation there. Alright, peace.
