@snakker Thanks!! Man i truly think this donut shenanigans is well worth, it goes really in depth on what Blender can do and is A LOT... it can do a lot lol
After a hefty break, I'm back with vengeance.
After the new year's festivities i managed to finish week 5 and 6, so I'm gonna use this post to to show the work i've done and to review term 3 as a whole, also gonna put here what i hope to achieve this year, just to see if i can manage.
Week 5
Daily Gesture drawing (2 min)
Daily Clothed Figure Assignment 2
I was supposed to put clothes on previously drawn characters, but i realised that i don't have any lol. So i just used one of the gestures i've done in that week as a base to do these.
The clothes were purely from my imagination, so they might look a bit off.
01
02
Draw 5 Characters heads From Imagination
In this one i wanted to practice expressions as well, in one of them i was trying to make a raging bald guy and i thought it looked like Kratos so i just had to put the beard and the tattoo lol
The lineart on some of these are quite bad, mostly because i got bored and didn't wanna reedo them pretty.
"Zbrush" For Visual Production Assignment 2 (I used Blender) Using the Bust From Week 3
That was surprisingly fun to do, for the first time sculpting by myself on Blender, i would say it came out not bad at all.
And that's it for week 5.
Week 6
Daily Anatomy 2 Assinment 2
01
02
Draw a Character That Represents Yourself
I would recognise that angry/tired ugly mug anywhere, it's me!!
What a beautiful specimen lol
Study a Fully Dressed Character From a Show You Like
So that was a funny one, I think I was supposed to do a painting but i don't know jackshit about colors and i didn't fell like rendering nothing, so just did the good and old lineart.
I wanted to do a close up shot of VI from Arcane, but the assignment required a full body, so i just mashed two different references to reach the goal.
Refs
Full Body Study
Construction + Close up shot
Term 3 Review
Just some closing thoughts on term 3.
The clothed figure drawing portion helped me a lot to understand folds as whole but i still lack the creativity to create said clothes from imagination, this in general is something i really need to improve on. I feel like i have a good grasp on the upper body anatomy, so noice. And 3D on Blender was a really nice surprise to me, i do see myself sculpting on it in the future, even if just for fun sake.
i feel like in some point during the term something just clicked and it truly felt like i was improving a heck of a lot seemingly out of nowhere, here's my hope that things just keep on clicking lol
As for what i hope to achieve this year, i wish to full on finish the Art School course or at least get really close to doing so, still following the companion guide of course, also want to get in a good place to start to grow my social midia presence, mostly on Instagram, cause as it stands, i have 0 posts and 0 knowledge on what to post, so if i want to someday make a living of this art stuff, i fell like this is a pretty essencial part, but this is mostly towards the end of the year, wanna fell confident on my skills first.
And that's about it. Thanks for passing by.
