May the Fourth Be with You

Hi everyone!
This is my first year to celebrate May the Fourth, and I have been really excited for it for a while now. Although I am not going anywhere today, to celebrate, I am going to share some of my newest Star Wars drawings along with some other things.;)
I made this drawing of Rey during the weekend, but never colored it. I knew I wanted it to be featured in this post, so I finished it yesterday and I am so happy I did!:D 
I made this drawing of an Imperial Guard and I love it!:D The shading was so much fun, even though it was a little nerve racking that I would mess something up.;D
 
That concludes my newest drawings, but I am not done with this post yet!:)
I thought it would be fun to share some cool Star Wars things that are going on recently, so here are three awesome Star Wars things that you guys should definitely all check out to celebrate The Fourth!:D

Disney has made a "Told by Emojis" Star Wars: The Force Awakens story video that is just too, too cute! If you want to check it out, here's the link- LINKEDY LINK LINK. To be honest, I've watched it three times.;D
(NOT my photo, all credit to American Girl Doll Artist.:D)
Over at Small Dolls in a Big World, AGDA is making the most epic Star Wars story. If you want to check it out, here's the link- LINKEDY LINK LINK. I am anxiously awaiting Part Nine. AH, so good.XD

One of my new favorite blogs is Anakin and His Angel, a blog all about Star Wars! It's run by my best friend's sister, Jen, and she posts a ton of awesome things.:) If you like Star Wars, check it out. It's amazing and totally clean.:D

Now that's all I have for this post, I hope you enjoyed!:D
May the Fourth Be with You...

In Celebration of THE Most Exciting Day Ever

Hi everyone!
If you have no idea what today is, then you are not aware that TODAY IS THE DAY THAT THE FORCE AWAKENS COMES OUT ON DVD WITH DELETED SCENES, AN HOUR LONG DOCUMENTARY ON THE MAKING OF THE MOVIE, AND POSSIBLY BLOOPERS (I have no idea.)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that I got that scream rant out, I am celebrating with two all new TFA drawings!:D
Rey and BB-8! Her outfit was so fun to draw!:) 
This was just a different angle on the drawing.;)
And now this drawing I did of Kylo Ren looking at the Darth Vader mask... He was so fun to shade, like I can't even.XD
 
I just can not wait to buy the movie today and watch it!:D 
With my Kylo Ren/The First Order blanket and Build-A-Bear. Oh yeah.XD
Are you buying the movie?:) Which drawing was your favorite?:)

P.S. With how much I post about Star Wars on here, I think I should have made the blog's name be- Drawn to Writing and Star Wars.XD

How to Draw Rey - A Tutorial

Hi everyone! I am here with my tutorial!:D
If you are recreating this I have two things to say. Here is the picture I used as a guide if you want it for yourself.:)
And next, very important, DRAW VERY LIGHTLY! I didn't draw this perfectly at the beginning, so at the end I had to erase some things.;) So that being said, draw lightly so that no permanent marks mar your finished drawing.:)
(Drawing lightly is something I have yet to master...XD)

Okay, let's start the tutorial!:D
 
I started off with a light circle for her head. A circle is always a good start for making your head, but make sure it's light because it won't be staying for the finished product.:) 
Next I added little bumps for her cheek bones. 
Now add downward lines to the bumps that are going inwards slightly for her jaw. 
From the ends of those lines I drew the bottom of her jaw and chin, making sure that her chin is round and realistic. If you need a little help, you can look at the picture and use that as a guide.
I used a ruler to make sure her cheekbones and jaw points are straight. Then, also using the ruler, I put a light line down the center of her face to make sure her face stays centered.:) 
Here's what it looks like.:) 
Next I added her hair, which is basically a big bump on her head with all of these little bumps on her temples. (I know things look sort of cock-eyed, but I think my camera was tilted.XD) 
For her curls just make little waves.:D I also added ears, the top of the ears should be where the circle ends in her hair.:)
Next I added her eyes after I erased the circle of her head. You may want to make your Rey's left eye be slightly farther to the left. 
I added half circles inside her eyes. 
Next I drew the shine to her eyes, mini ovals.:) 
Continuing with her eyes, I drew the bottom of her eyebrows, making the right one slightly tilted and the other one straight with a small, barely noticeable curve at the end for the arch of her eyebrow, because it's natural even if her eyebrow is scrunched straight.:) 
I finished the top of her eyebrows, as you can see.:) 
I drew her pupils.
After that, I drew her eye creases and super light tiny squint-y lines under her eyes.:) 
Connecting to her eyebrows, I drew the bridge of her nose. 
Her nose was really hard for me, but although it may look sort of funny without anything else, it works in the long run.:) You can make her nose by starting with two squashed circles for her nose holes, with only a little bit of space in between. Then you draw the curves of the outside of her nose.:) 
Starting her mouth, you draw a line that tilts downwards at both of the ends. Then a thin top lip, and a long "D" shaped bottom lip.:) 
This is where I had made a mistake. I had made her chin a little too long, so I erased it, but it ended up being slightly too short. Oh, well.;P 
I drew her neck, then her shoulders, adding the bumps of her wrap. I then made her shirt's neckline- a "V" and then that little indent.;) 
She also has her collar bones, which are super simple to draw, and her rounded "V" at the bottom of them. I put a short line on her neck to add a touch of her neck tendons.;) 
Then I drew the tab on her shirt neck line, finished her wrap, arms and chest.:) 
And TA-DA!;) Rey is finished! Oh wait- 
Add her little lines in her hair.;)
And then it's all done! I hope you liked the tutorial, although it might not be the best.:)

I'm almost done with my Glazed drawing, so that should be ready to be posted soon!:D
