David's ear - Part I

Next part up is the ear. This is one of the easiest facial features to draw and it went pretty quick to get the results seen here: 

Basically the ear consists of two ovals. One big on the top and one small on the bottom. The trick is to get the proportions of these ovals correct. You size the width/height of each oval against the entire length of the ear to make sure that the proportions are correct. It is also important to capture the direction of the oval so it looks like the model. After the initial construction work you start working on the details which was a lot of fun. Left to do is to add more layer of tone so that ear looks more realistic…enhance the contrast between areas.
