Gregory - Art School Journey

[gregorya]

Thank you @patrycja.lerch.
Arttrober day 22 Is Belldandy from Oh My Goddess! Day 23 is Rust. So I drew her in a rustic cabin. It has been a long day.

Arttrober day 24 is Agis and Inktober day 24 is Expedition. Here's Aigis from Persona 3 about to embark on an expedition. I would like to know why she can fire bullets from her fingertips.

Attrober day 26 is Starlight from The Boys, and Inktober day 25 is Scarecrow. The idea is that Starlight joined the Justice League and is fighting DC villains like Scarecrow. She defeated him and made him into a literal scarecrow.

Thank you @mitsuki-youko.
Arttrober Day 25 is Shampoo from Ranma 1/2 and Inktober Day 26 is Camera. Here she is holding a camera.

Day 27 of Arttrober is Reina from Tekken 8 and Inktober day 27 is Road. Here she is relaxing on her motorcycle after a drive on the road.

Nice to see you pushing yourself with all this work. There is some noticeable improvement as the pieces continue.

[gregorya]

Thank you @daceronine I'm glad I'm improving with this challenge.
Day 28 of Arttrober is Panty and Stocking, and Day 28 of Inktober is Jumbo. Here's Panty and Stocking from the series Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt, eating jumbo donuts. I struggled with the jumbo prompt until I came up with jumbo donuts.

man you work hard I had trouble keeping up with Inktober but you are blasting through it

[gregorya]

Thank you @uggievang. I've been doing this for a while now.
Arttrober day 29 is Gambit from X-Men and Inktober day 29 is Navigator. I drew Gambit in a navigator outfit.

[gregorya]

Arttrober Day 30 is Elena from the Street Fighter series. Inktober Day 30 is Violin, so I decided to draw her playing a violin.

[patrycja.lerch]

It looks great!

[gregorya]

Thank you @patrycja.lerch.
Arttrober day 31 was a personal choice, so I chose Marcille Donato from Delicious In Dungeon. Inktober Day 31 is Landmark.

I wanted to draw her and some of the army she leads later in the series. That was an interesting landmark event. This was an ambitious idea I wanted to draw for the end of Inktober and Arttrober. Happy Halloween.

[patrycja.lerch]

It looks amazing! All of your art/inktober works are great and there is a lot of improvement

[gregorya]

Thank you @patrycja.lerch. It was a pretty fun challenge.
I remember this image from @Inkpendude from a Draw This In Your Style of this demon chef girl from another artist named Skullflesh. I was freaky looking but interesting. So I decided to make my version:

I made the severed heads float by her. They're like her assistants. Either her fallen friends' or enemies' souls she captured.
I gave her a pot she wears on her back. Her Cleaver is more like an axe, and her fork is like a trident.
Here's the original:

I'm currently doing two challenges. The first one is the Learn to Draw in 30 Days challenge from Marc Brunet, so I can practice digital drawings.

And the next one is his 30-day face-drawing challenge. I think I'm making some progress.

[patrycja.lerch]

Nice work! Going from paper to screen was pain. Good luck and have fun!

[gregorya]

Thank you, @patrycja.lerch
In the study guide, I needed to draw 5 or 10 studies face studies of characters.
Here are some facial studies of 5 Characters from anime and comics.
Lady Nagnat and Dabi from My Hero Academia. Mithrum from Delicious in Dungeon. Ganta Igarashi from Deadman Wonderland. And lastly, Wall Might from Wall Might: First Term.

Here are the references:

Oy, you keep grinding and improving! That sounds like a good challenge to get some practice in. Looking forward to seeing more updates on it. It'll be interesting to see a before and after from the challenges as well.

[gregorya]

Thank you @daceronine. I'm thinking of posting them weekly since the images look pretty small.
Here are some more drawings from week 2 of the drawing challenge. It was pretty fun learning to draw shapes cut in half, but cutting them into thirds was a little more challenging. It's pretty good so far.

Here are the face drawings for days 12- 17. Drawing a face from just a square in a three-quarter view on days 14 and 15 was a bit challenging. It took three attempts on the 15th day, but I think I got it right on day 16. I found out that there's a 30-day face drawing template. I wonder if I should just use that one.
