Step 1 -

With grey pencil llines, I draw simple guidelines to help me sketch quickly and confidently and to get the proportion right.

A large circle is drawn for the top and a V shape below for the jawline.

Two large sockets for the eye spaces and one small oval socket for the nose. The mouth is only bare teeth.

Step 2 -

I paint in this skull with transparent shades of brown using the airbrush tool. The eyes and nose need to look hollow - for which I paint in blacks on the lower and top edges. i shade in highlights for the cheek bones and forehead and chin.

Step 3 -

Paint in the black background with the paint bucket tool. Then with a dark brown pencil line, give the whole picture a clear outline.
