Crowlip - Art School Journey

[Crowlip]

Thank you for your insight! I am always happy to receive comments and feedback, I'm still on the early stages of my journey so I find them very helpful and encouraging.

Regarding the exercises with straight lines, I think I also put a lot more focus on getting them straight rather than controlling the start and the end. I'll try to keep it in mind because my line work is still sloppy and overshooting may be a bad habit that I'm falling into without even realizing.

Some male and female body proportions practice. This was very helpful because the proportions of the body is something that I always struggle with in my gesture drawings and such, so having a clear and simple reference like this is amazing for me.

There's still points where I feel like I could draw details differently, but it's probably the natural variance of the human body mixed with my own personal preferences. For this exercise though, I tried to stick to the guidelines.

Character study time! A portrait this time, to change things a bit and focus more on the face.

I'm quite happy with this one, although I'm noticing that my lines are often times pretty shaky, mostly on the curved lines. Maybe I need some exercises to correct that?

Also, credits to sewingbear on Tumblr for the fanart I used as reference!

Hi! Today I have a few exercises of perspective, experimenting with structures and patterns in 1 & 2 point perspective. It was pretty fun to do these, though it was a bit annoying to try and get everything perfectly aligned. Good practice nonetheless!
