Getting back into the swing of things after a little break for the holidays. 
Here's my first post for Term 2. I actually did 2 pages of these, but unfortunately lost the file for the first page. On a positive note, i'm starting to feel more comfortable drawing these forms freehand.
Practicing head rotation drawings. I referenced a book called Special Training Animation for these. It helped to block in a grey circle base as a guide. 
More head studies. I find the extreme rotations and keeping the proportions correct with perspective challenging. I tried keeping the circles on the sides of the heads in the middle row here, but I think I prefer the lob off method I was using for those angles in the sheet I did yesterday since I don't think the the circles wouldn't technically be visible from that straight on view. I got the practice sheet from youtube.
The head studies are pretty great. The anatomy studies as well. The head rotations and lines make it pretty 3-dimensional.
I didn't have a ton of time today so I did a little bit of gradient blending practice.
Some ear studies with some quick shading. I also tried to apply a few contour lines to show the forms.
Great Studies so far. Keep it up.
Trying to break down the structure of the nose with some draw overs. I also tried coloring the different sections in with a different color.
Nice work mate!
keep at it
Breaking down the nose studies by drawing over them is a great idea.
My progress has been a bit slow lately and I hope I can get more study time in this week. Here are some more nose studies. Structure rough in + some shading.
I'm trying to think of everything as a 3D volume these days and think about the contour lines going across the form when I sketch.
Yeah, it was pretty helpful. I think I will also do it for the mouth before I attempt to draw those.

Some lip studies. I could have spent time and done more realistic rendering but didn't feel like it was worth it so I just quickly laid in some values under the line art again while zoomed out. Things were busy again this week with work so I didn't make as much progress with my studies as I would have liked. I guess eyes are next.

I have been playing a lot of Infinity Nikki lately and for the box cover, I decided to make a new treatment for the Infinity Nikki logo and imagine what a physical box for the game might look like if they sold physical copies of it. I staged the whole thing in a marketing banner design and photoshopped different imagery together to make it look nicer.
The lip studies look good. The Infinity Nikki box looks adorable. Normally the E rating is on the front or back of the game box. I'm not sure if it's on the side.

Work got extremely busy again and I completely fell off the wagon with my practices. Balancing life, work and practicing art is a real struggle for me at times and It makes me feel bad because I had such a good momentum going too. I made a little chain and fence brush tonight which was all I could fit in for today. Hopefully this small step will kickstart me to continue again.
I also made an ugly character in photoshop with the pen tools. There's a reason why graphic designers use illustrator instead of photoshop for vectors. lol I guess I can say I tried the tools and don’t like them.
Notes from the 3 point perspective lesson. I started on some eye studies as well but haven't shaded them in yet. Glad I was able to make a little bit of progress this week after being away for a while.
