~ Hello there, Dysah! The way you draw the Amicitias is one in a million. You capture there gentleness and the warm of their hearts in a wonderful way. (I’m still in love with the reference you made about Gladio’s eyes as warm galaxies. Molten stars indeed!) Excuse the random question but do you have any tips to draw a nice and elegant Clarus Amicitia? Thank you.

dysah:

Hello~! ✿ ;v;b Thank you so much~! I love the Amicitias (too much if that’s even possible) and I’m always so happy to see others enjoying my drawings of them!!! *cough!* I mean, yea! I can’t look at Gladio’s eyes (or anything really :P) for too long, I’ll get lost for eons in them!

Oh man! These hoes are hard to draw, but here goes nothing! 

LONG POST AHEAD

Make sure to keep in mind the basic (yet by no means absolute) proportions of the face:

Construct the face using whatever shapes you prefer:

I draw more edges for Clarus than for Gladio (BECAUSE GLADIO IS SOFT!!). His head shape is more defined because his hair is really short (I had hair like that once :P) I think “strong bone structure (jaw, brow bones, cheekbones) but delicate features, cos he aged you know (eyes, wrinkles, facial hair).” 

Always use reference for your studies! I stuck super close to the reference for this post. Also since there isn’t much of Clarus just get Gil Darnell images for reference. Liek dis:   (Look at that happy Clarus!! I m-mean Gil!! :P)

Ok NOW he Clarus~! xP

Also, I think they all have hooded eyes, but Clarus’ corners are a little different (also his eyelid hood is more pronounced because of gravity and age):

I honestly hope this helps.
