so, im just gonna explain the colors that i used in that work
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
medium: oil pastel - brand: buncho
paper: just a white printer paper (you can use other paper as well)
skin:
i started using some light orange and brown mixed...leave some space for the white...then added some white and pink to the cheeks and some other part as well...just remember to do it part by part...starting from the forehead, cheeks, nose and last the chin.. after that, i redefine all the structure using dark brown.. then, splatter again some white to all the parts to get the better highlight.. (note: don't start on the eyes and mustache yet without finishing all the skin/face cuz the black color will ruin your work!!)
lip:
i usually love to use light purple and pink for the base and added some white to highlight it...then i defined it using red watercolor pencil...last some light orange to match with his skin color
eyes and mustache:
very simple
head band and hat:
for the headband, i mixed red, orange, light purple and pink...then, added some white for a little highlight...the pattern on it is done using black and purple watercolor pencil....ok, the trickiest part for me is the hat
hair:
this is the last thing i do bcuz it has so much black, and black is the easiest color to mess up with other lighter color and make your drawing UGLY
background and touch up:
simply using black watercolor pencil for the background and touch up
