In this exclusive real-time tutorial, you’ll begin Part 1 of a hyperrealistic portrait focused on curly white hair, textured skin, and detailed eyes. The lesson starts with building a smooth graphite powder background, then transitions into experimenting with different techniques for white curly hair — using graphite powders, 5B–9B pencils, jelly roll pens, and kneaded erasers to balance depth and highlights. You’ll see how mistakes in early hair layers can be corrected and refined into clean contrast between black and white strands. Moving forward, the forehead and skin areas are developed with layered shading, dotting, and careful highlights using Mono Zero and jelly roll pens for a shiny, realistic texture. Finally, the eye is constructed with indentation lines for eyebrows, smooth shading around wrinkles, eyelashes, and sclera tones, combined with sharp highlights to bring the area to life.
