Art Attack: How to Draw with Neil Buchanan Book: “FINISHING DETAILS” with Instructions

Here's how to draw: “hands”, “clothes”, and “glasses” from pages 18-19 of “Art Attack: How to Draw with Neil Buchanan” book by Dorling Kindersley/DK (“Finishing Details”).

You will need:

*paper and *pen.

1. “HANDS”

1. A lot of people find it difficult to draw hands. It's a common problem. For example, a lot of people draw hands facing forward and flat, like here. The hands just don't look quite right ...

2. ... because nobody stands like this!

3. It's more like this. The boy's hands look more like claws from the front. You can't even see all of his fingers.

4. So try the ‘claw’ tip! Draw the thumbs on the inside, near the body. Draw the other fingers from the side, and curved. You don't need to show them all.

Draw a ‘claw’ hand for someone facing forwards

5. Of course, not everyone stands facing the front! If you're drawing someone sideways on, then put in all of their fingers, and make the thumb point the way the person is facing.

Draw a full hand with fingers for someone facing sideways

Now you try! Practice!

Step-by-Step Video:

2. “CLOTHES”

The fabric looks flat

1. Add details to clothes to stop outfits looking flat. For Example, let's make this bride and groom, and the boy peeking at them, more interesting.

2. Add a tie and detail to the groom's suit, to make him look formal. Put a crease down his trousers to make them smarter, too.

Draw lightly over the bride's face to give her a veil

3. Make the boy a bit scruffier. For an untidy look, break up the lines and edges. Add some creases in his top, and in his jeans, where he's been sitting down. Don't forget his shoelaces!

Add flowing lines so the bride's dress material seems to drape

Now you try! Practice!

Step-by-Step Video:

3. “GLASSES”

To draw glasses, draw the bridge of the glasses onto the bridge of the nose. Draw frames around the eyes.

Add the arms of the glasses. Put two lines in the opposite corners of each frame, to make them look like glass!

The highlight makes the glasses look more realistic

For sunglasses draw frames as normal, but add a little highlight in the top corner, then colour the rest in with a dark pen.


Now you try! Practice!

PHIL: " ... a route marker on it and proceed to the marked cashier where they will give them their next clue."

FIND: a Marked Car in the Mall of Asia parking lot

PHIL: " ... the city of Bocaue in the Bulacan region, when they get there, they'll have to proceed to ..."

PROCEED TO: Bocaue Public Market

PHIL: " ... the Bocaue Public Market where their next clue awaits them."

ROADBLOCK: “Who sells?”

PHIL: "In this Roadblock, requires one team member must sell a soy delicacy used during morning snacktimes called: ‘taho’. They must learn and prepare taho, and sell it around the market. They must earn ₱200 when selling taho, before receiving their next clue."

PHIL: "If they didn't get up to ₱200 by 12pm closing time, they will receive a 30-minute penalty."

PROCEED TO: Philippine Arena

PHIL: "Teams must drive themselves to the Philippine Arena and search the grounds for their next clue."

ROADBLOCK: “Who deserves an Oscar?”

PHIL: "In 1887, José Rizal’s novel: ‘Noli Me Tángere’ was published ..."

PHIL: " ... This Roadblock requires one team member must portray one of the characters of ‘Noli Me Tángere’ inside the Phillippine Arena. One team member must choose one of the characters from ‘Noli Me Tángere’ and perform a scene in English from the story, using the book they bought, the team member must find a marked page to memorize and recite the lines to the stage director who will hand over the next clue (An Old ₱10 Banknote). If not they'll try again."

TASK: Figure Out the Next Location from an Old ₱10 Bill

PHIL: "Teams must figure out that back of an old ₱10 banknote ..."

PHIL: "... is leading them to the Pit Stop at: ..."

PIT STOP: Barasoain Church

PHIL: "... Barasoain Church located in Malolos City. Built in 1888 and it's the location for the first Philippine Congress in 1898, and it will now serve as the Pit Stop for this leg of the Race; the last team to check in here ..."

PHIL: "... will be eliminated."

GUEST PIT STOP GREETER: Judy Ann Santos

JUDY ANN SANTOS: "Welcome to Malolos, Philippines!"

PHIL KEOGHAN: "[teams' name]. You're team number one!"

PHIL: "As the winners for this leg of the race, you have won an additional $25,000. However, ..."

PHIL: "... you're still racing!"

"TO BE CONTINUED ..."

BEHIND-THE-SCENES:

Well, we didn't have a starting line in Hawaii state for the whole series of TAR, so why not have it as a starting line with the returning location from S14: “King Kamehameha Golf Club” in Waikapu (finish line)?

Since Phil (Keoghan) responded, appreciated, and liked my tweet suggestion on Twitter for Barasoain Church as a Pit Stop, the reason why I really want TAR: USA to visit Barasoain Church as a Pit Stop in the Bulacan region is ...

... way back 2011, I watched a reality TV series competition called "Junior Masterchef: Pinoy Edition" (aired on ABS-CBN) where young cooks (kids) visit Barasoain Church to do a team challenge, that's why I want TAR: US to visit there (and Judy Ann Santos as Pit Stop greeter in a chef costume).

The reason why I want to put a “Taho” as a Roadblock task, well it's my favorite morning snack because taho sells in the morning.

The 2nd Roadblock task scene (Noli Me Tangere/“Who deserves an Oscar?” task) is actually from the teleseyre on GMA 7 called: ...

... “Maria Clara at Ibarra”.
