Hello guys!
Long time no post! If I'm being honest, it's been a combination of being busy and completely forgetting that the forum existed ahah. Anyway, I hope to be more consistent from now on.

Let's see... I've made so much art since I was last here. I completed mine and 0BecomingX's comic Superpose Soldier, so here's a link to that. It's over 100 panels and I'm honestly still feeling a little burnt out over it ahah. https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/superpose-soldier-h/list?title_no=428513&page=1

I did 25 pieces of artwork for people on Art Fight in July and the start of August. Here are a few of my faves

Here's a couple of quick landscape studies which I did a while back too.

And finally some measured figure drawings for Term 1!

Onto perspective next! I'm both excited and nervous because I feel like perspective is very easy to mess up and I'm really not very experienced, but I'll only become experienced if I actually do it!! So, get ready for some bad, but hopefully improving figure drawings ahaha

Thank you so much! Yeah, you're right about the ear. It does look a tad small xD
I know the censoring is really minimal, but I censored more of it earlier on in the painting and it made the shading around it looks really odd and out of place. I figured that we're all adults here or at least old-ish teens who are mature enough to not get offended by something like that ahah. Like I'm sure nearly every one of us has seen a naked dude before while doing a figure drawing. I'm actually not sure of the censoring policy on the cubebrush forums if I'm honest. Perhaps I need to look into that!

I forgot that I had to do a summer project for an in person art course I'm taking this year, so I'm sort of scrambling to create pieces for it. That's why there hasn't been any updates on the assignments!
Anyway, I thought I could still incorporate the term one classes, especially perspective 1 into my work! For this project, I have to do 9 postcard sized pieces of artwork based around the theme of utopia. Unfortunately doing digital art means that it's quite easy to get carried away with the details, so they're taking ages.. oops! The story behind the postcards is a girl and her friends going on a spaceship to a utopia planet. She is sending postcards back to her mum documenting the trip! When I print them out, I'll write stuff on the back of them in relation to the story too!

Postcard one is supposed to look like a postcard you'd buy in a gift shop!

Postcard 2 is canonically supposed to be a photograph of the main character when she first put her spacesuit on. Of course, for the spacesuit design I was inspired by Evangelion's plugsuits. I wanted to try a more anime type style which was fun! Not something I'd usually go for ^^

I finished the 3rd postcard! It's not very good. I'm awful at backgrounds aha. I'm trying my best though! Maybe one day I'll be really good at backgrounds.. but not today heheh

I haven't done gesture drawings in way too long, so here's 64 30 second gestures which I did in one go as punishment ahah.

Thank you so, so much! You honestly have no idea how much that means to me. I'm always worried that my style is too generic, but you've filled me with confidence

Did 64 more 30 second gestures

Today I did 60 second gestures, so I did half the amount of poses. I'm not sure if this technique is too messy? Do you think this technique is beneficial to my learning or should I switch back to the 30 second 'stick figure' gestures? I also found that I often had 15-30 seconds left so I might try to do this technique with 45 seconds.

I finished the 4th postcard! I really hate it but I've gotta move on otherwise I won't have all 9 done by the night of the 6th lmao.

Ahhh it's getting dangerously close to the 7th!
I adjusted postcard 4 a little and I finished postcard 5! I need to speed up with these ahah

V2 of postcard 4

Postcard 5!

Yay, I finished postcard 6!
In the very basic story of the post cards, the main girl has had a caricature made of her. I've never made a caricature before, but I tried my best
