Lockenheim - Art School Journey

[Lockenheim]

Just some random work through the week, Marc had suggested I draw more from imagination so most of this is from imagination. I have also focused on quality over quantity in the past and wanted to try to flip that around, so I didn't spend a ton of time on adjustments. Anyways feedback always welcome!

this first set is an eye exercise marc recommended

Feedback always welcome thanks for stopping by!

[snakker]

Yoo these are looking good. That eye exercise looks really useful. I also really pike the unicorn head guy concept and maybe you could even make some iterations and a piece I think it would be cool

I did notice you have a tendency to slant the figure’s left eye counterclockwise with respect to the right when in 3/4 perspective - when I the figure looks to the right

The body studies (the ones with color xD) look pretty accurate and the lines are very clean ^.^

[mitsuki-youko]

noice!

Never watched connan but i've seen the pix online... I see a great resemblance here XD

[Lockenheim]

Thank you for pointing this out! I do have a difficult time with that angle for sure I will have to take another look at this angle! I appreciate the help!

@prinzmoana Thank you so much!

@mitsuki-youko I have never seen that but it looks fun!

This is my work from the week, feedback always welcome.

WIP

decided to keep pushing this one all from imagination, except the crab!

after feedback from Sascha and Tell! ty!

Feedback always welcome thank you for stopping by!

Looking very nice and very clean
The overlap of the silhouette of the figure’s left arm seems ambiguous. I think that from the viewers angle the bicep’s contour would overlap over the deltoid at the contour

Nice work as always cheers!

[holyjosh]

Nice job!
The bikini girl color looks really comfortable.
But I think her eyes seem a little far away.
And I'm not sure if her head is little bit rise that the ear should be lower.
Overall it looks good.

Helloo. I would like to help/I don't know how to call it xD. Again, I'm not a master at drawing, so use my advice as you think it's best for you. ^^
I've noticed with your linearts, that they are too rigid I would say. Here is my rough sketch looking at your drawing. I highlighted the base parts with red, that is my way of building up characters. It's basically the same method that we practiced in the first term. Don't be afraid to use the eraser also. Sometimes a little bit messy lineart is better in my opinion.
Another thing that I would recommend is look up references on things you think it's not looking good. For example the hand on the hip. I used the drawing as refernce, not tracing it, just using it as reference. And the last thing, the head in my opinion was a bit tilted unaturally.
Oh yeah. one more thing, the colors are really good as holyjosh said it.
Oof. Thats a long one. Hope you improve more. ^^

The lighting/shading of the hair is very nice and vivid ^.^

[Lockenheim]

@snakker thank you for the feedback! Funny you said that Marc also said the same thing! I made some adjustments for the final version! Thank you so much!

@holyjosh thank you so much for the feedback! I think you are right on the eyes! When I first started the program I had the feedback that my eyes were always to close now it seems they are to far apart lol! Thank you so much for the help with the placement of these features!

@Evilith Thank you so much for the help and assistance! I really like this example of how to place the elbows for the arm in the arc, that is very useful! Also the contours definitely help as well. In terms of the clean lines that is funny you mention that as you are not the first to give me the same advice recently lol! I have several sketches I did before this one but I did this line art to clean them up. I will have to find a good balance, I probably spend to much time with the clean up. Thank you so much!

@prinzmoana Thanks so much! I was pretty happy with how the hair turned out for how little effort Iput on it lol! I need to get over my fear of contrast especially for hair! Its always so shiny. Thank you for the advice!

[Lockenheim]

This is my work from the week, feedback always welcome!

This was the final version of swimsuit after adjustments. Thanks to all for the advice!

This last one is a portarit I did this week, it's almost done I have a few things to touch up after Marc's feedback.

Big thanks to @Xybb @holyjosh and Tell for the assists! Thank you for stopping by. feedback always welcome!

[snakker]

Yo this came out super nice! I also really like the figure you drew with the huge sword, worthy of a finished piece 😃

Cheers!

[prinzmoana]

Nice form studies of Lux, I think your hair get better and better

[mitsuki-youko]

[Opal]

Looks mwa. I hope you continue to strive for improvement because i can see great progress here.

[CYP2C19]

Wow those Hair studies are phenomenal, I love how much volume you gave them!. and that portrait is seriously good stuff!.

[gregorya]

You are getting much better at the portrait studies. Keep it up.

[Lockenheim]
