Summary
This video offers valuable techniques for drawing realistic eyebrows. It emphasizes the importance of creating lines that start thin, grow thicker in the middle, and taper off again at the ends, achieved by adjusting hand pressure. To enhance realism, it encourages drawing in various directions—left to right, upward, and downward—and using overlapping lines instead of parallel ones. Additionally, the video recommends varying the thickness of line work, particularly using thinner lines for the head of the eyebrow, to mimic the natural look of eyebrow hairs.
