Come with me friends, on my TEDIOUS AF magical journey into drawing hairstyles! This journey may appear brief in photo, but I have been struggling on this for more than THREE WEEKS.
Now, I have some very minute experience with hexing hair with bmps instead of linez/ballz.
Cloudtails and my thunderbun are an example of this. (seriously what's with me and weather named hairstyles?) But they both have predominantly linez bases style, the only drawn bits are the buns.
When I rejoined Milk, I made it a personal goal to learn how to do a complete hairstyle out of bmps.
AND BOY HAS IT BEEN AN ADVENTURE.
I went WAY TOO POOFY at first. Sometimes less is more, and that's a lesson I really struggled with.
Then I attempted to trim down the poof, and kept chopping the babyz head off in the process. (ouch, drawn on hair is SHARP.)
FINALLY I had something I liked, but it looked so so awkward from every angle. Unless the baby was facing you it looked atrocious.
SO right around this time, the magnificent and talented ɾiley 👾 bestowed her secret formula to non-floaty hair to us via her tutorial, and I decided to give it another go. Unfortunately it still had some movement issues.
But I was on the right track!
Just when I thought I'd NEVER get it right, I did. I cut the large pieces of curl into smaller ones, and it flows SO MUCH BETTER.
Ok I know what you guys came for and it isn't the outtakes.
May I present you my new, fancy DRAWN hairstyle?
As you can see, the movement is a lot more smooth. A SINGLE curl likes to float away when the baby isn't facing you, but once you plop some hair accessories on, you can't even tell.
DID I MENTION HAIR ACCESSORIES. I plopped Riley's unicorn code (have I said thank you enough times Riley? You are a hexing god), and rustled up a flower crown onto this unnamed sweetie and...
I am smitten. I initially hexed her for the cruise auction, but I think she already found a home with me. After all, I've been working on her for more than three weeks.
SO Here we have reached the end of this journey.
Now it's here, can someone help me name it? :3 Right now I'm toying with "The Mane Event" but idk yet.
