25 Expressions: The Hues by =alex-heberling

Turns out it didn’t take very long at all!

WHAT HAVE I DONE?! Click through to download for maximum scrutiny. <3

My love for charts is a little scary sometimes. But this is a helpful tool for me!

Having all the girls laid out like this helps me compare and contrast expressions. I think I did a pretty good job of not giving every girl the same expression for every prompt across the board.

There are certainly improvements I can make, but I’m pretty proud of the work I’ve done. :D

25 expressions for Andrea. She surprised me with some of these… She’s easily the most emotive of the Hues.

For my newer followers, I’m working on the development of my dream project, The Hues.  It’s a comic series about a group of survivors of an alien invasion apocalypse that discover they have magical powers and can save the world.

Post Apocalyptic Magical Girls, fuck yeah.

So from time to time, I post my sketches and concept art.  I’ve been doing this facial expression worksheet for each of the 7 girls who are the main characters.

I’m shooting to launch the comic this summer!  You can look at the rest of my Hues art either in my art tag, The Hues tag, or in my Deviantart gallery. :D

Sami, Hannah, and Andy are the first three girls we’re going to meet in The Hues.

I will inevitably get things like “Burger King Kids’ Club” shouted at me for my character designs for this comic, but IDGAF.  I hope that every girl will be able to see some part of themselves in my comic. :x

25 faces for Salime!  Her face lengthened out a bit as I went through the faces, I like it alot.  It certainly went a bit faster that Audrey’s faces.  I think I’m going to do Hannah next.

25 faces for Audrey.  I’m starting to get the hang of her face, thankfully!  The faces towards the bottom of the sheet are starting to loosen up and feel familiar to me, but I still have to draw her again about a thousand more times, I think.
