Great technique. I'm a pencil / ink portrait artist myself. Awesome job! And those who have a problem with keeping them the same size, measure the width with your pencil. Also shading with a tourtullion makes all the difference. It's paper rolled to a point for shading bliss.

I actually use ballpoint for my drawings too :D...it really looks like you may use the same kind of shading I do, but I have MUCH higher contrasts on my pictures with a lot of skin folds and detail :P
how are you shading? I looked up what you said about circlism but all I found was pictures drawn using circles and crap about some religion concisting of being lazy to achieve things in life >.> but anyways, really how are you doing that?
@randomasiangeek try takeing mesurments of the first eye on the paper thedistance from the edges the length of the eye the width, or you could do it the easy way and scan the eye to your computer flip it so its oposite in something like the paint program then trace it on the paper in pencil and go from there with the shading.
like so many other videos i have seen, i leave a positive comment. your drawing is skillful. However you need to recognise your limits with an eye. its all about breaking certain boundries with your skill. for example you drawing an eye... the eye itself is great, however. people want to see full body drawings. many will not wish to see the eye alone, no matter how amazing the eye may be. humans have low attention span. an eye is not interesting enough, you're nearly there... keep it up.
@sammybarnet Eyes are beautiful. You can add the wildest colours, the wildest patterns and much more. What you are implying is that the drawer has to do more than they wish just to please someone? As soon as you pick up a drawing tool, and as soon as you take a piece of paper, your imagination is running wild. It's your own little world put onto a simple piece of paper. Drawing isn't about 'breaking certain boundries with your skill,' it's about how YOU see your drawing and how YOU prefer it.
There is lots of ways to shade with a ballpoint pen.. I personally use crosshatching, and a very, very light touch.. Its all about the practice.. When you have "mastered" the art of drawing with a ballpoint, its an amazing tool.. check out my channel to see the biggest and most detailed ballpoint pen drawing you will probably ever see. Its taken my 10 months so far, working on it allmost every day.
really...guys...so what he outlined it in pencil first...thats the most common thing to do...the true skill is in the shading with the pen...really good job...its somewhat stylized but i really like it...and art doesnt necessarily mean you draw with pencil first...there are plenty of artists who just wing it...there are also other drawing media that are just as forgiving as graphite...like charcoal, conte crayon, colored pencil...lots of others an artist might start with...art doesnt have laws
i dont see a pencil drawing. i dont think he had a pencil version i think he did this free hand with a ballpoint like he said. and it doesnt matter what ball point you use. it can be cheep or expensive. the shading technique is done by practicing alot. it takes a while to build up a nice smooth gradient.
@ninjazmedia there's definitely a pencil sketch there already. but i do agree with you that the shading is remarkable and would take hours of practice to master.. im not trying to discredit the artist but the template is definitely there.
I FREAKIN LOVE THIS SONG!! i just randomly made my day..i was not expecting a video like this to have a song i actually like on it.cool eye too. best shadin(my opinion)was when u shaded the eye color part...idk wat its calld
so what if he traced the rough guide? the finished product is a clean image.. even though the eyebrow area is all wrong. the shapes on the left would not be found.. and the brow is too low. good effort though.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
tracer tracer everybody he is a tracer hes tricking you to think he didnt but he just got it out of the how to draw books and a good artist whouldnt have to trace if magicley u did
Where did it say anything about tracing, anyway? In the beginning it said he "did an outline in pencil," if that's to what you are referring. Outlining ≠ tracing.
Great video. I myself love to work with ballpoint pen. The only drawback, besides the unerasable lines, is that in the base tones, ink shines harder than graphite :O
it's kinda like a pencil with a ball point pen the harder you press the darker the lines if you barely touch the paper with the pen the lighter the line
Did you crosshatch?
