Some other studies

So much for doing this EVERY DAY. :P Oh well, I'm still workin' at it! Just a couple of works for now. Online references are always good, so I used some. All slow works of progress. One day I WILL create a full-fledged character! ...Well I mean, I have already BUT I will REALLY make her look nice. Or him...or whatever.

Another Try! (nudity)

Another version of that female pose that I snagged from the Gesture Drawing Tool. Except for the eye and head height, amongst other parts, that's an improvement right thar! Hopefully I can get better, because that took a good while to study! Still, it's valuable to study and take my time. Phew!

A pic (nudity)

Shame on me! I've lagged for a time with my practice! Last one I did was with pen, so THIS time I'm gonna use pencil again. It's really better that way, in case I make mistakes. So...here's the pen version of a model pic I used from Pixelovely's Gesture Drawing Tools app! The head's too big, and the balance is off, but this is progress from what I used to do!

I wonder...

First time trying to transform a male head to a female's head. I'm making a bit o' progress! Hmmm...I see a difference, that's a start!


Oh yeeeeah...my computer's been fixed! Whooo! Think I'll do more of these in pencil for a while.

The Withdrawal Is Too Much

I MISS MY COMPUTER!! Not just for Internet surfing or digital art, but when I do sketches and a couple acrylic paintings, I can easily upload the pics! ...Well, thankfully I'm blessed with an alternate computer for now. So I shall deal with it fine. :D Gives me more time to do art and procrastinate. :P

Here are a couple pics of men's heads, and some off idea. Oh, and a sketch observing a girl in a coffee shop. :D

Faces of the day

The end of Remembrance Day, but who really stops remembering the purpose of this blessed day?

Aside from catching the time (all those ones!), I also drew a few faces in the night. I tell you, it's tough to draw on angles, but as you work at it, you start understanding things just a bit more each time. :D I understand more about the jaw and chin, and how tilting your head back mightn't be much if you do it, but if you DRAW it?? Phoo!!

Bad Freedom

Heh...well, I tried a couple freeform heads, seeing how much I remembered and how much I worked on as far as refining. I worked on a LITTLE fixing up (much less lopsided, but the one on the right is a little...funny-jawed), but I remembered a good deal of what I need to do for construction. I just need to get the shading right! It's about me wrapping my head around both form and shading...

First Come, First Face

I have plenty to do to draw a full body without the bobble-head look. My big (and current) trek is working on heads, in fact! I'll do it slowly, steadily, but I'll DO THIS!! Here are some pics from over some weeks, and the last two are from the past two days. I've been getting awesome help from a mentor, and I've been using a Loomis book, Drawing the Head and Hands.



Planes...they do help!!


Some faces. They look VERY creepy.


Man, shading from a lower light source is tough!

More tries with the heads in front view. I'm doing this with imagination, sooo fun!

Did these ones today. I took my time, but still, I need more to get it right! Getting there, though!
