Thank you! I needed to break up the monotony of drawing heads and torsos, and more heads and torsos... so I wanted to see how many different silhouettes I could bop out from one pose. It was a really fun exploration of breaking out the form and form language. I will likely take one or two of these and turn them into lineart, etc, to slowly evolve a pipeline.

Cheers!

Update on silhouettes: took one and attempted to render it out. Got about a third of the way sorted but I need to get some sleep... class tomorrow.

Cheers, lovelies!

Hey, thank you!
Yep, all of the silhouettes were drawn with a brush/lasso tool. Sometimes its easier to visualize volumes when massing in blocks with the lasso, so I use it a lot!

Further attempts at rendering. Good grief the human face is hard. Need to spend way more time with reference. Much work to be done to get this piece somewhere nice.

Heheh, yeah I did but funny you should mention that cuz I'm changing it back! The neckline in the silhouette is proportional, but when I filled it in to render I messed it up. So ima erase the head section entirely and start over, keeping the original neckline and head proportion

Something I'm working on:

Also did some torso bean practice, and have been doing a page of freehand circles every day as well:

Been a hot minute since I had the time to focus on drawing and painting. Uni has been kicking my butt but am nearly done. Only one more stinking year to go.

Had some time to try to revive any latent skills I had developed previously and managed to cough out some images:

Hope everyone is doing well.

Cheers, lovelies!

I have been trying to squeeze as much painting time as I can between schoolwork. I feel like I'm on the cusp of understanding values in a new way. Some more stuff I've been working on:
