Thanks!

I am curious. May I ask you, why the lines of your worms are more shaky than the rest of the volumes and the sketch of Jean-Claude van Damme? (By the way: The Jean-Claude pose is well done!)

Keep up the good work!

brzechwajan583 2023-04-07 12:01:14 UTC #45

Oh it's beacause i have problem with my line confidence with more complex structures + i'm still fighting my habit of drawing more with wrist than elbow.

btw. sorry for late response

Thank you

I sympathize with you. I had the same problem for a long time. Then I remembered that I loved calligraphy as a kid. I picked that up again and practiced calligraphy in Photoshop by tracing a decorative font with ligatures regularly. Since then my lines are better.

Thanks for advice! I will definitely try it!

Perspective 1 - Assignment 3

It took me a couple of hours to do this, i think it tourned out pretty good considering it's my first try.
Unfortunately I left some spaces empty. I don't really have that much time left today but maybe i will add some finishing touches in this week.

So, what do you think?

Oh, and that thing on the table is keyboard.

mitsuki-youko 2023-04-10 21:27:39 UTC #51

it looks great! i really like the feeling of depth in the room

imo it would look even better if the chair was closer to the table tho

It's my first time shading, so i don't really think i got this right. What do you think? Help really appreciated on this one!

I really should practice drawing cones...

Lockenheim 2023-04-16 18:49:38 UTC #53

You are getting the right idea with the cone but I think if you can apply some of the logic from the sphere to both the cylinder and the cone they will read better. The cone is a curved surface, similar to that of the sphere, you have the right idea about the gradient changes on it but I feel like the transition would be more gradual, similar to you have the sphere. I think if you smudged the cone and added a bit more gradient between where the light and the shadow meet it would be looking really good.

I think the same logic could be applied to the cylinder, the transition between the light side and the shadow side is pretty abrupt when on a curved surface it should have a smoother transition.

So in short, blend out the colors with soft brush or smudge and decrease the sharpness on the transition between light and shadow, giving a bit more room for that gradient.

Hopefully that makes sense! let me know if it doesnt on discord.

Update:

Unfortunately last weekend i was too busy to draw anything
This can happen more frequently from now on as school year is starting to end so I will need to focus more on the college. I will try my best to upload every weekend.
As for today I've done perspective 4 assigment and full figure drawing:

That pose was really hard for me. I'm not really happy with how it turned out. I guess i need to practice more poses like these.

I really like how this turned out.

Really love the perspective work!

You can always do this at your own pace I'm the same, can't do this daily, so basically whenever I can I put in the work.

Try making vertical lines or hold pen vertically over reference to see relations between certain parts. For example you will notice that his right feet starts on the line where the nose is. It will also help to find which part is the most on the right side and what is the furthest on the left. Here his left knee should be bit further than the elbow

Thanks for the advice!
