I always really admired animators and even taken classes in the field. It was more work than I was anticipating, but it really did help me as an illustrator. Anyways, this was based on the Expression sheet sketches by Alexander Snow. I feel as illustrators, we tend to just default to “sexy” or “cute” facial expressions, but we don’t often push ourselves to displaying the full range of facial expressions, including the derpy ones. Planning to use this as a kind of emotion reference for myself, but will try to deviate to more of my own style.
