Yes, I think your are right;, the more you do the better you get. I've never drawn a building this way, using two vanihisng points; I'll try more environment pictures to study and improve : ).

Drawing Goku was fun, Maybe I'll try another DBZ character .
Thank you !!

It sounds better like this

Thank you @gregorya , Marc's challenges helps me to improve, I'll try to do more in the following weeks

Opening Term 2 with new stuff to learn; I'm keeping on going doing my best to improve my skills.

TERM 2
Week 1 and a half Photoshop and Self portrait

These two weeks I tried to mix excercises from the first and the second week, but I was able to finish only the assignments for the first one (The ones related with photoshop for production); I also keep doing some pen control excercises especially with circles.

Feelings:

• I felt relieved on changing the kind of exercises these days. By doing the Photoshop assignments I did some review of graphic design fundamentals and some Photoshop tools I hadn't used for a while. It is important to keep in mind the basics. I felt a little rusty designing a cover again.
• To keep my routine to improve my pen control and abstraction skills, I took volumes excercises recommended by Marc on week two. These kind of shapes get less harder to do each time.
• I felt strange drawing me myself watching in the mirror; It's the first time I did so. It was interesting and challenging.
• I tried to finish a character and an environment study, but are still work in progress; I'll share the studies later.

I found challenging sometimes to keep motivated on falling in a routine of exercises. I see that It's important to change from time to time the routine and improvise some days.

Hope you are all good !!. Thank you!!!

Thank you @daceronine , I had a good time remembering how to use digital tools. For self-portrait, I moved a big mirror at home and put it next to my laptop and tried to keep the same position (drawing position was the most confortable ); anyway, It felt strange, I never tried it before.

Hello again everyone!. Long second week for me that seemed a month but still keep on going for sure.

TERM 2
Week 2 Anatomy 1 and Photoshop

Last weeks I focused so much on practicing volumes and tried to get familiar with face structure that Marc explained on the video class.

Feelings:

• For me is hard accomplish the assignments and It's becoming easier to get stuck because of that, maybe I should pay more attention to my weekly practice.
• Practicing volumes and overlapping helps a lot to improve your skills.
• It's fun to draw faces but I'm getting used to making sketches without finalizing linearts; I guess I should solve this.
• In transition exercises I found the three tools useful (smudge, soft and hard brush) so I guess I should practice with the three of them in my drawings. For me It's easier to use the soft brush but I guess that it depends of the case.
• I keep doing character studies. I'll try to keep on doing this

Hello again everyone!. Long summer...long weeks with no posting : /, but still working on

TERM 2
Week 3 Anatomy 1 and Portrait

It is true that last weeks I continued practicing but I get stucked on the same week 3 topic: heads, so I didn't move on the course.

Feelings:

• Despite I get stucked I kept practicing volumes and overlapping to improve my skills.
• At least I don't think my work is getting any worse.
• I found harder to create faces from my imagination rather than copy (well, I guess It is normal)
• Still strugling with proportions and hard for me to apply it on drawing faces.
• Still making sketches without finalizing linearts.
• It is true that summer and work itself made me to slow me down in the process, but I was regular on practicing.

Honestly, I feel sometimes that suggestions on the weekly study may be bored. I'll try to these excercises with some other related to it.

Pen Control Exercises

Face parts

Faces from imagination

Hope you enjoied the summer ! Thank you!!!
