Tried to do a "draw this in your style" challenge. Really pushed myself to my limits and I certainly saw my limits lol. The arms don't quite look as realistic anatomy-wise. Definitely will work on my anatomy to improve in the future!
aand I will slide in my Instagram art account huhu (would love some encouragement there!)

Added eyes to some nose studies I drew the eyes too big for the initial 2 or 3 nose-and-eyes pairs, but oh well, it's in pen so I can't really correct it... ;-;
Also tried to draw a portrait in charcoal pencil, after learning all the parts of the face for term 2!
I think all that's left for me in term 2 is to practice drawing some faces some more and finishing my 3 pt perspective; I'm getting excited about progressing some more!
A 3 point perspective study! I referenced the Neuschwanstein castle from Germany, but experimented with colors, composition, and tried add a dash of storytelling in this piece. I'm not entirely satisfied with my result, but I already spent too many hours on this ;-; (12 hrs) my brain feels like an old potato x - x
I'm planning to do more (definitely shorter) perspective studies for the rest of this and next week!
Thank you!
I've had some basic traditional art training from about 5th to 10th grade. We sketched a lot from reference, using pencil, charcoal, and watercolor. I sketched and painted here and there for a few years afterwards. If strictly speaking about digital art, I only started doing it seriously since December 2021, I think? I'm guessing that the training I had helped the transition to be easier
Very impressive, The perspective looks correct overall and I really like the colors. The only thing I am able to critique is that the carriage, horse and character are not quite in perspective. Their vertical lines would follow the same vanishing point as the castle, but they instead are perfectly aligned with the picture frame.
On a second read, the trees on the right are quite similar in value and color of the background, making them hard to read.
