Hey guys :smile:
Im back! I hope you are all fine and did not miss me too much ^^. After taking a week of vacation and visiting some friends and their baby, I finally got back home and was able to draw again. This week I started with the 2 minute gesture drawing poses, as the study guide suggests. They went kinda well and since I liked (most) of them I went ahead and did some shading afterwards. I am really not sure if i did this correctly, so if you don't mind please help me out :smile:

ooh i really like how you did the sketches and the shading!! its very clear where the light source is from your sketch!

I finally finished it :smile:. Boy that took ages. Overall I think it looks quite nicely, however the proportions mostly are off, once you lay my sketch over the original image. Still I'm kinda proud :blush:. Did not think I could get that close (after my first attemt with different paintings went horribly wrong).

perspective-cubes.113-14052023.jpg7016x4961 653 KB

Yeasterdays + todays perspective drawing (roughly an hour). The idea was to construct a church/monastry like a child would do with building blocks. Tell me if you see it :smile:. Also, again i tried to shade a bit which i hope is mostly correct. Atleast the blocks (to me) feel like they belong in one world. Cheers!

Really like the lineart work Niko! Such intricate details within each one and you did a fantastic job with them!!

Great work on perspective.
It looks like you shaded all the cubes consistently and even added cast shadows.
Definitely looks like they belong in one world :smile:

And here are yesterdays figure drawings, which my bird-brain apparently forgot to upload :smile:. Anyway, they are mostly done in just a little over 5 mins (I could not not-finish them once my timer rang ^^). I'm sure y'all know that feeling too.

Figure drawing Assignment 4.jpg3508x2480 338 KB

I finally came around and finished the gesture drawing assignment 4. As you might have guessed the 3 mannequinns were drawn besides the reference and the other two i drew from imagination. What do you guys think?

I did not think i was going to share some of my gesture drawings again soon, because I did not like how they turned out at all. I felt stuck for a long time. However i liked how todays gesture drawings turned out. To me it feels like I am finally improving again. Take a look :smile:
