Drawing My Friend ~ Mixed Media ~ Step By Step ~ Part One

So, after two years of my friend asking for me to draw her -- I finally decided to draw her for Eid 2017 for a gift.
Here's the process I took to draw her, if it look stale - its because I havent drawn at this point in about few months to a year on a real person.

At this point, I was feeling iffy about the face and the proportions to the real picture. But, somehow I made it worked !!


Started to ink a little at this point, and started working on the shirt.


The most time consuming part of this entire drawing was cross hatching the shirt/sweater to match a distinct pattern. Usually I'm not good with pattern or drawing fabric. But... gave it a shot !

So far, its working out at this point and I'm really loving how its coming out.

I will post the rest of the steps later.

Thank you !
