Just for fun, I also wanted to draw a little reaction face with a victory sign, so I tried that. Ended up quite cool, I find!
It's weird to think that this challenge is almost over... and that I've made it so far already. I really thought I'd give up less than a week into it. Now I'm here, sketching humans largely from my own imagination. How cool is that?

Wait a second, I'm one day away from finishing the challenge???

She has red-brown hair in a ponytail and is wearing blue jeans with shoulder straps, and there is a green scrunchie on her left wrist as well. In the bottom right is a pencil sketch of a right hand, looking at the palm. The fingers are slightly spread out."

Genuinely, I just added the header for this section and realised that today is day 27... of 28. I really thought day 28 would be on Friday. This is wild.
Anyway, I had some more fun with colours today! In a very cheerful move, I drew a girl with a big smile holding up a victory sign. I saw this technique for drawing a teeth-showing smile somewhere a week or two ago and wanted to try it – worked out well! I also wanted to try and draw a face head-on, because all of my previous ones have been drawn at an angle. I think that went quite well too!
Only thing I'm not entirely happy with is the hair after colouring. It just looks kind of odd and not as light as it did in the draft sketch. I even tried erasing and redrawing it a bit after colouring, which unfortunately left some pretty visible artifacts. In fact, I can't quite decide whether I like the draft sketch more or the final result.

Although I do like the popping blue jeans and the green scrunchie as a detail – really want to draw more accessories so that my characters look more interesting.
I'm overall very happy with this! Seeing the sketch come to life made me smile irl too. Even the hand turned out decently well. Even the hand!!
I decided to keep it short for today, as I had a long day at work (for which I got up late lol), though I did try to draw a bigger hand as well, just as practice. It turned out okay. Not as good as I would have liked, which is why I didn't end up tracing it with the fineliner, but I didn't want to erase it either because it's practice and I shouldn't erase things like that.
Day 27 done. I guess this means I'll have to draw that 'big' drawing tomorrow. I've been thinking about it for a while, and it's really not *that* special, but I am still slightly concerned whether I'll be able to perform. Definitely looking forward to tomorrow, one way or another!
