Some awesome concept exploration here, cant wait to see what they turn into! Do you make the sillouhettes using the lasso tool?
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!
Hehe, no it was meant to be some kinda cyber-eye piece. Ended up taking it out though.
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.
Ohh 
In the last rendered version you changed the silhouette (around the neck)... I loved the original one, gave it something really special.
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

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:
Cheers, lovelies!
Mmmm yep! Fantastic value studies. That face looks so good. Great work!
Thank you! It's nice to be able to dive back in and experiment a lot. About the face - extra thanks. That's the first planar face I've completely constructed with any success. It's still a little borked and stylized, but it was close enough for me to know I've made progress.
I did a bunch of posed references studies. am seriously out of practice in this area, my goodness:
after that practice I wanted to play around some so I made some silhouette stuffs...
im in love with silhouettes. how could I have forgotten lmao
These are super cool! I'm still in term 2, very excited to get to these parts of the course and make some awesome concept art ;__;
