    You asked for opinions so here’s a couple of tips for ballpoint portraiture realism that I’ve learnt as a freelance portrait artist using only ballpoints (I have been doing this for over 5 years now):
    try to avoid hard outlines, particularly for features other than eyes/eyelids, nostrils and eyebrow hairs;
    your best friend for realism is fine cross hatching and layering and alternating the directions of this; start off with a light foundation and build upwards because pen cannot be undone, this also creates a softness that allows you to blend easily between shade and highlights;
    to avoid unwanted clumps of ink, keep a scrap piece of paper or even regular tissue and roll off your pen after each time you take your hand away from the page for more than a couple of seconds; this prevents the ink gathering at the ball and producing a splodge (for want of a better word) when you touch the pen down again, this is particularly important for when you’re working on highlights and lighter areas and also hair.
    If you’ve read all of this, I hope it’s useful to you 😄 have a nice day!

      Serious question, how long does one of these drawings take for your ball point portraits?
      Is there anywhere online you can recommend to be able to learn this style of drawing?

    • @CaptainBucky
      @CaptainBucky 4 года назад +71

      Michael Carlton My portraits can take anywhere up to 4 weeks to complete because of their size, for me this also depends on the hair length/style/type, skin (as darker skin colours take more layers to build up) and also any clothing/accessories that are being worn.
      I would recommend just having a look around RUclips and observe the techniques of artists, there are also many good ballpoint artists on Instagram (@/oscarukonu and @/samiadagher are amazing examples to observe) 😄👍

    • @fish_butcher2255
      @fish_butcher2255 4 года назад +17

      also carefully using slightly damped cottonswap with fine eaven crosshatching you can get beautyful blending and smoother look! My self i use really hard pencil to sctech and not do any line work with ballpoint pen, just hard shadows where its needed. Patience and layering is the key ;

The same could be said for a number of other videos where he admits to being out of his element, but almost always produces amazing results within a short period of time. That is a result of artistic talent combined with the skill he has from the mediums he does excel at.

      I'm gonna be that guy and say while the left eye is fine, the right eye isn't positioned correctly. I instantly noticed this because the eyes in a portrait are one of the most important features you have to get right, because more often than not that's where most peoples eyes go to first. That's not to say it isn't a good portrait, since it is amazing that this was done with a ballpoint pen, but there is room for improvement.

      the right eye is drooped down a bit, which is not... really... okay, at all, the eyes are the things that you need to get right, theyre the first things you look at on a portrait, eyes are something that you need to get down pat, otherwise the drawing won't look right, i do this weird thing where i use a ruler to get eye size and spacing right, but it works, if you dont wanna do that it's fine, there are many ways to make sure your eyes look symmetrical and detailed, so please use them, otherwise its gonna muck up your work

    The hardest thing about capturing realism, especially for someone who is mostly an illustrator, is the tendency to concentrate too much on the edges of the subjects. In reality, nothing has a distinct edge, especially a biological/organic structure. Rather, they curve away from or towards the viewer, and are never a hard edge with as much contrast as we have an inclination to draw them with. This is hard to capture in a realistic way with many mediums.

    • @asimian8500
      @asimian8500 3 года назад +7

      The edges we see are a byproduct of the image processing our brains perform to identify objects from the background. It's a neat little trick...algorithm inside of our brains.
      From an optical perspective, our eyes have a focal length of about 50mm with optical distortions. Our brains perform error correction and processing to fix this. We also have two eyes which are actually too close to create real stereoscopic view, but our brains use the ever slight differences and processing to create our binocular view. I could go on and on, but the key to realistic art on a 2D surface is to fool our brains into believing it has 3D depth and it isn't a flat image. Of course, in some cases you want a flat image in the case of illustration.

    Cool story: when I went to school we had to do an ink-drawing of a painting for homework. I didn't know she meant for us to use actual ink and a brush, but because we didn't have it, I used a ball pen instead, because it's technically also ink and I knew they couldn't give me a bad grade for it.
    When I turned it in, the teacher, who was like a down-to-earth artist type, praised my creative take on the assignment and I honestly still feel proud about it.

      I don’t know if I would call most of this realism. The first is too stylized, the second is an alright attempt, but the third is almost cartoonish(OBVIOUSLY an exaggeration, but still....). I will say, the less realistic style of the first definitely made it better.

      he's literally a professional artist, most people didn't spend more than half of their lives drawing, painting and animating. In all honestly, no, realism isn't something he's InCrEdiBle at. But he's willing to try and practice and challenge himself and that's where his strength's at. A finished artwork is better than an unfinished masterpiece.

      It might not be the best but I love all his realism drawings

    I love how even doing the hardest of challenges he still can draw better than anything I can do

    JAZZA! You should buy and old DSI and play with the included “Flipnote” app! It’d be awesome to unlock a distant memory in a lot of your viewers and add your own jazza spin to it!

    Am I the only one amazed at how he can draw a whole drawing with a ballpoint pen when I can barley get through a sentence without it running out of ink

    I think the one sketch with the man was really nice!! Jazza did well on every sketch, but I gotta say the portrait one was my favorite

    me: is that landscape in the first illustration from that one time jazza tried to recreate a bob ross painting with only the audio?

    Drawing with pens are just the best. You get an experience of complete pain trying to erase something that obviously cant be erased and happiness when you realize it can be slightly blended and improvise instead.

      We see people's best things, Jazza is practicing for years. I don't think your art is bad, you might need to practice more

    "This is not my strong suit" *proceeds to produce amazing drawings*
    Jazza has more talent in his little finger than most people have in their entire body
