Some quick refs I drew up for myself to help my brain get out of that “same old, same old” when sketching. I love making sure my OC’s have unique faces, but I often forget that people rarely wear their hair the same way every single day (especially very fashionable people like Aurelia here), so these were done in the hopes that I’d get out of that rut.
It’s equally fun to see how hair softens or hardens the very same features of a face too!

Aurelia (OC) belongs to me
