 |  How to Draw Trent Reznor, Nine Inch Nails |  |
STEP 1.
Sketching must be done with a pencil that can be easily erased , preferably an HB. Pay attention to the very first image , that's the most important , if you get it right the details are really easy to fill in later .
STEP 2.
Toning is very important in portraits ( also some other stuff but it doesn't matter). Giving a face the proper tone is essential if you want to make it look real and not details , as some of you may think. The process of toning should not be rushed , use pencils that progressively range from HB to 8B. Slowly smudge the surface before going for another pencil. By the way, his left eye isn't important, it's going to be black anyway.
STEP 3.
For the hair I used a 2B and an 8B. As you can see I drew the hair covering part of his face AFTER I made the entire face,plus I toned some more.
STEP 4.
Drawing realistic clothing can be done in more multiple ways. One of them is toning the whole thing and then darkening and highlighting certain areas . I didn't do that, what I did was starting directly with the dark areas, leaving white spaces which will later be covered with tones of gray. Either way you chose to do it it's fine, I can't say that one is easier than the other .
STEP 5.
Use black, blacker than the blackest black . Here you can also see the technique I used for clothing , on that strip thingy. See how I started with the black part ?
STEP 6.
Finish the rest of his jacket and you're almost done . The background was really easy to make. What I did was take a ball of cotton and small knife . I used the knife to make graphite powder , grinding it against my pencil . Then I used the ball of cotton to smudge the graphite powder over the surface . After that I used an eraser with a sharp edge to make that model on the dark surface. You can erase with ease . Be careful not to use too much powder near the face or hair, if you do then it won't stand out from the background. Of course I edited the last image in order to look like the actual drawing, scanners really like to ruin your drawings.Post a comment

Wow Dusk, the background came out amazing! Infact, the whole thing did XD Love it.
This is Dusk's tutorial, not Dawn's. If you want to talk to Dawn post on her profile or PM her. BTW, the black backround gets fixed if you re-load the page a few times.
