Awesome sketch... you got any tips for doing lips? I'm starting up drawing again and just remembered how much I suck at drawing lips :(

Glad you like the drawing :-) It's all Daniel :-)
Is there a certain look you're going for when you draw lips? I just try to remember where the light hits it so it looks soft like they are on big guys hehe... unless you're drawing superheroes, and their lips don't have much detail LOL!!!

Haha... nah, i'm going for life drawings like yours, so yeah... soft ones on big guys is about right *grin*... I always tend to get them too defined, or with too hard a line...

hehe...if you're using graphite, try to find the soft side of the graphite pencil (2B or softer - some sides tend to be pithy) and do small circular motions to emulate a smokey sfumato look) Do it lightly and gradually get harder as you draw the lips. Try not to draw lines but form the object. Wish I could show you what I mean...
