Matt Smith (Daemon) Portrait – House of the Dragon
In this exclusive realtime tutorial, we’ll draw a hyper-realistic portrait of Matt Smith on A3 drawing pad paper with an 11×14 inch area, focusing on background gradients, soft skin textures, and layered hair detailing. Using graphite powders, B to 9B pencils, kneaded erasers, and the Mono Zero eraser, you’ll learn how to build smooth transitions, carve out fine white hairlines, and create realistic skin texture with both subtle and sharp highlights. The lesson also covers the eyes, nose, lips, and clothing with careful shading, blending, and contrast adjustments to achieve depth and lifelike detail. References are included in the Materials section.
