More heads. These two foreshortened ones really helped me realize a lot of the perspective issues I've had are that because We're starting with a circle when drawing the head, I've been treating the curves of the front of the face as if they are also a circle when they are more elliptical in nature. Especially in these types of poses. Not as stoked about the male, but I feel like the next attempt really shows I'm applying and fixing things based on that knowledge. I also realize that I'm needing to pay attention to the receding perspective on the mouth as well in initial construction. Tried to push the hair value farther today. The references definitely helped me make these connections as I sit and ask why and figure it out.

Just a very messy layout sketch for my 3 point Perspective assignment that I'll be cleaning up this week.

and my final assignment for Photoshop 2. Box art is by me from earlier this year.

3 point perspective wall for the Perspective 2 Class. I think its pretty much done.

Thank you @mau.wamp @LesleyCarol! I'm thinking I'll have to rotate these perspective drawings into my regular work. It was really challenging and I think I can push it even further in the future. learned so much. Excited to get this final Perspective 2 assignment handled.

Also wanting to drop my progress on the head practice I've been doing daily. They aren't all perfect but I'm super proud of a good number of these.

@nori thank you!

And that 4 point perspective illustration. Since my anatomy knowledge is lacking I really just tried to emulate what Marc shows on the video and plan on continuing to practice this daily in a much simplified line art version in place of doing the 2d perspective exercise that I have been doing every day after my gestures. Once I finish all anatomy classes I plan to revisit this project to do a portfolio piece as suggested. Using a reference and a grid you can probably really game it and make something AMAZING. Cant wait to try it out.

After staring at my 3 pt perspective assignment, I realized I made some mistakes to the left side of the piece. For some reason I was relying on the pre-created perspective lines as the be all end all guides for things I should have been designing. I decided to take another crack at 3 point perspective and use them more as suggestions while sketching and I'm so glad I did. It let me sketch out an idea for something that normally isn't in my comfort zone and I'm pretty pleased with what i got done while streaming tonight. While this isn't finished, it's really allowed me to get a better grasp of what I need to be paying attention to (i hope).

@OpaqueApple Thank you! I was eager to start something else today but I decided to polish that airship up instead!

Probably the biggest challenge yet is learning completely new software. I have no 3D digital sculpting experience going into this, but it's one of the courses I am the most excited about!

Every day I do a full render of a head after gestures as some of you know. This morning I pushed things further. Really just like how this "practice" piece came out and wanted to share it.
