Gregory - Art School Journey

[kalienator]

Those are super fun references to study. I like what you did with the tongues.

[patrycja.lerch]

Great work! Redraw piece looks interesting

[mitsuki-youko]

ooh thes studies look so good! esp the weird togune ones!

[gregorya]

Thank you @kalienator, @patrycja.lerch, and @mitsuki-youko. The tounges were fun to draw with the studies.

I started some easy art lessons from Trent Kanguia recently.
Here's a simple barrel and a chest.

Here are some I worked on. Shpere's and shapes.

[gregorya]

I drew more spheres. Most of them are from imagination, and the others are from references.

Here's some more progress on my Ides of March sketch.

I had trouble drawing this digitally, so I drew it traditionally instead

[gregorya]

I made a farmhouse from a 2-point perspective. I learned a little more about rendering traditionally. It was pretty interesting.

[gregorya]

I did a work in progress-on the picture.

I was watching Common Side Effects and I wanted to draw the DEA Agents Capano and Harrington when they were dancing to Senora by Harry Belafonte. I drew it from a different angle and shaded it.

[gregorya]

I did some face studies for the assignment. These are characters from shows I watched and manga I read.
Akira Tendo and Beatrix Armhauser from Zom 100: Bucketlist Of The Dead, Shin with his mask on from Dorohedoro, The Mad Hatter from Alice in Borderland, and Okurun transformed from Dandadan.
I have 6 more left to draw.

[kalienator]

Nice studies! I really like your 2 point perspective farm house and the DEA Agents you drew from an alternate angle. Do you prefer to draw traditionally or digitally?

[gregorya]

Thank you, @kalienator. I usually draw traditionally and a little digitally. I'm still learning more about drawing digitally. I'm trying to do a mix of both.

I had an idea of a dragon maid with an axe. And another rough idea of a scout. I just did a few ideas. I might refine them later. Which one do you like?

[gregorya]

Here are some more head studies:
Aira Shiratori from Dandadan, Shin and Noi without their masks from Dorohedoro, the smiling statue/ God Statue from Solo Leveling, and Tomie from Tomie.
From what I can gather, I still need to work on line weight. I think I have 3 more left.

[gregorya]

Here's the last of my face studies.
Momo Ayase from Dandadan,
Marshall Cuso from Common Side Effects,
and Alan Wake from Alan Wake.

There's not much to post. I have gesture drawings for 30 seconds each and another one minute each.

[Nosnibor]

I like the style of your gesture drawings, I find them appealing to look at. Did you look at any resources outside of the lectures for them? I found this video very useful (it is 1 hour long though):

[gregorya]

Thank you, @Nosnibor. I did look for some resources for gesture drawings from Marc, Proko, and Reiq. I have Michael's book as well, but I didn't know he had a course on Proko's website. Thank you for the Link.
I did a face study combining 2 pictures I found.

I saw this movie, Sisu, and wanted to draw the main character as he was on the cover. It's a pretty entertaining movie.

[gregorya]

Here are some faces from Imagination.

Here are some 5-minute gesture drawings. Some clothed, others nude. I haven't done this in a while, so I focused on the pose and anatomy.

For this one, it was the poses.

[gregorya]

Here are some more 5 Minute gesture drawings.
I also drew some more faces from imagination.

[gregorya]

One of the weekly study guides is studying 10 pictures from real photos, so I have done four face studies so far.

I did some more 5-minute gesture drawings.

For most of the gesture drawings, I had time to focus on the anatomy and shade them.

An hour of drawings, each 5 minutes.

[gregorya]

Here are the Last Of the face studies 5-10.

[gregorya]

I did a mermaid sketch. It's a work in progress.
