Backwards Lune Jump

A compilation of stuff I know about drawing Asian faces and Asian culture! I feel like many “How-To-Draw” tutorials often default to European faces and are not really helpful when drawing people of other races. So I thought I’d put this together in case anyone is interested! Feel free to share this guide and shoot me questions if you have any! I’m by no means an expert, I just know a few things from drawing experience and from my own cultural background. 

Cool.

It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Saving for future reference.

Just because I cannot fully appreciate it, doesn't mean she can't.
