omg @chrisarogers thanks!! Now it's really better hahaha
I did not realize that from this point of view we can see a big portion of the bottom of the tube. I really really appreciate that 
That's no problem at all, it was quite fun to show some critique, I've never really done it before.
I've just noticed something else too, the pipe connects to the wall in a cube shape whereas the pipe is a cylinder. Try making the pip a cylinder all the way through and it should finish off the whole look.
Glad I could help 
@chrisarogers I tried and after a half an hour it seems a little bit better, but I won't swear it hahaha
What do you think?
I think that from the next week I will work on solid shapes until this will be a distant memory hahah 
I have said it already but a big heartfelt thanks 
@chrisarogers and now I noticed that the juncions could be even more rounded as you told me, that is just a nightmare hahah I think that I will throw the towel now
Hey Chiara, please don't throw that towel in just yet, go one more round. Okay so from what I can see you are seeing the pipe as 2D rather than 3D as you draw it, which is perfectly normal without the 3D training, so let's try something else.
Instead of going straight into curves, which is difficult in itself, lets think of the pipe as a cube. I have a series of images at the end of this post to illustrate what i mean but hes how I went about it;
- Find Perspective.
- Create the surrounding boundary of the pipe cube in perspective.
- Create the intersections required.
- Break the intersections up to find the centre.
- Draw a circle in those intersections, using the edges of the squares are a boundary for the circle.
- Refine the outer most line of the pipe with the intersections.
I really hope the way I have done this makes sense, I think it would have worked better with a video but we shall see.
@chrisarogers I can't believe it, I will make you a statue hahah maybe in ZBrush
You put so much effort to help me, I don't really have words, thank you so much Now I understood better how it works. I will do pages and pages with this to master it hahah
So Apart from the perspective ( that remain a big deal haha ) I resumed with a complete exercise the nude figure drawing and this is how it turned out.
(Thanks @karnav for inspiring me in the design of volumes 
)
Haha, a statue is not necessary... unless it helps with those zbrush skills 
However I do really like the idea of those pages and pages of work
Really liked the way the figure drawing turned out! Such clean lines. Congrats 😬👍
Great figure drawing, chiara!
I like how you just used gesture lines for the 30s attempt. Your line quality gives it a cool flow!
The idea and execution of your perspective assignment is also very clean and the shading looks (from my point of view as a beginner) pretty accurate!
Correct me if I am wrong, but I always thought that cast shadows (as with your bed and the little cupboard) "should" be drawn as harder shadows... Or does that actually depend on the light source...
I'd like to hear your thoughts on this!
Keep up the great work!
Mau
Hi @mau.wamp!
First of all thank you for your kind words, I really appreciated that .
Second I have to say that I haven't studied cast shadows yet so maybe my opinion is not really correct 
I agree with you about the fact that this tipe of shadow is really hard but in this case (I put below my reference) I think that there is another dim light source from behind, tell me if you agree.
Maybe in my drawing I could have avoid it to have more attencion from the principal light source. Tell me what you think!
Have a good creative day
Today I started with a revision of figure drawing, even if I'm not feeling to have an improvement I have to say that I'm becoming more confident with this topic.
Than I worked on the assignement of photoshop 2 creating a character and the front side of the game box.
I thought about a 2D game with vector landscapes. The idea was about this alien animal that is escaping in the woods (effugit means escape in latin) because men want to catch him, pretty simple hahah I have more ideas to implement but I want to keep it simple for now.
I didn't decide the color palette yet, the black and white is not the final result (even if I like it )
I would really appreciate what do you think about the idea and the drawing itself, if is something that could work or not.
Thanks in advance 
Have a great day!!
Your figure drawings look really good, the shape and line choices are good and make it feel like a solid figure. My only critique is with the gestures, some of the lines look a bit hesitant and the proportions are a bit off. Looking at your past work though you have definitely improved and I struggled with those things a lot too (there are still times that I struggle with them).
Your game sounds good and the art looks nice. I think the animal could be a bit darker to stand out a bit more and the text doesn't seem to match the mood of the rest of the art. I like the animal design, it has a very feline look to it that could lend itself to a lot of clever mechanics.
@MattD Thank you for your advices! Yes I'm still struggling with gesture drawing even if it's better and better with practice, but I have to work a lot with it I try to use S and C lines but I still hesitate, maybe I'm not so sure if what I'm doing is wright or wrong
I really appreciate also the comment of the other work, I'll try to implement some changes and then I'll repost it
Love your way to draw the gesture drawings For the little criature I only have one thing to say. In a first seen to you drawing i just feel that the light we're the eyes xD After a second look I figured out that is some kind of light in the front. In general, I love your idea!
Maybe I am wrong with the light/eyes, it is not my intention!!! xD
Hi @mbarrasa16 thank you for the compliment! 
My intention with this character was to draw a gem in his front but you're right, it seems like an eye hahah I have to develop it better And for the lightning I used the same layer styles for both characters and I let the light come from above, but it seems a little bit glowing so it's not clear where the light source is hahah
I will try to fix it, thanks a lot for the advice
Hi everybody
Today I want to post some of my gesture drawing because I like how it's turning out, even if I struggle with 1 min session because I do too many lines, I think that it's a luck of confidence. Any advice is appreciate
Than I started yesterday the anatomy 1 lesson and I want to show you some facial features. I'm really happy about the ears but I know that it's the simplest feature The nose is more difficult, I still struggle in shading complex objects but I will have to practice, practice and practice hahah
Sorry the quality of the last one is orrible 
hahah
Last but not least I want to thank all the people that helped me with the character and the 2D game project, all the comments are really helpful also because it's a early stage.
Have a good day!
Hi! Today I've done my first portrait (self portrait ) after finishing the relative session. I was so nervous about it, I was constantly thinking that I will have failed but after that I am pretty happy about that! Tell me what you think
