Back again, missed yesterday due to a business meeting.

Line control from yesterday, I modified it a bit to better suit my strengths and weaknesses.

Today's line control

And today's 30 minutes of 1 minute gesture

I might have to reduce the amount of work I do on art to focus on getting a better job but who knows. I've been getting better sleep so I should have more time in the day to do things.

Couldn't upload yesterday's work so I'm doing it today.
Yesterday's Pen control

Today's Pen control

Tried Michael Hampton's approach to gesture, it looks better to me but I struggle to get everything in time.

Yesterday's 30 minutes of 1 min gestures

Today's Gestures (30min, 1 min each)

Next week I'm thinking of switching to doing some anatomy study or something similar. Supposedly knowing anatomy can help with gesture.

Busy day today, but still did some practice.

Pen Control

30 min of 1 min gestures.

I'm tired and going to go to bed. Next week I'll probably push gestures into my warm-ups instead of doing 30 minutes of them. Will also have a look at the resources suggested by @javier.rojas.hr.

Still continuing my studies.

I've pushed gesture into my warm-ups and have started working on the Proportions assignment. Though I won't be using the sheet provided with the term 1 content and will instead be using Loomis' figure drawing book.

Pen control

10 minutes of 1 minute gestures (done as a warm-up)

I've omitted the reference images as it would be incredibly time-consuming getting them all together into the image.

Loomis Male proportions

I find that recently I haven't been drawing for fun recently, so I might cut back on studies and focus on drawing for the hell of it.

Continuing my Loomis studies. I'll omit the gestures and pen control exercises I've been doing from my posts as they seem good enough to not require strict feedback.

All in all I've been real damn busy trying to get out of my dead-end job on top of adult responsibilities so drawing is a rare side-thing I get to do. I've found FZDSchool's website and youtube channel one of his recommendations is to draw 10 sketches a day, which seems hard but doable.

If I run into any issues in my studies I'll post them here, doesn't seem to be much of a point in sharing my progress otherwise.

Bumping this blog so that it doesn't recede into the abyss.

I'm still drawing and doing studies, but I've shifted away from the Art School program. Instead I'm carving my own path. I've been looking at how to draw heads currently, being fixated on trying to draw draconic/reptilian anthro heads. The book "How to Draw Manga Furries" is what I'm using at the moment to aid in my studies.

I've also been collecting whatever free resources I can find, references, videos, online pdfs, etc.

So anyway here's what I've been doing:

Dragon proportions studies

Human skull proportions study

Been bashing my head against proportions for the past week or so. What's given me the most trouble is the dragon head studies given that I've found very few resources dealing with the proportions of the mythical creature.

Oh and I realize I am working in a vacuum but there's not much else I can do aside from posting here.

Anyway, Strelok out.

Alright I've asked for help from someone I know in person on how to approach heads and I need to reel it back.

Rather than trying to study a completed lineart drawing from a book, I should be studying real-world animals that are used as a base for the dragons. However I'm still confused. More so in whether or not my approach is correct and I'm also struggling to understand how the muzzle connects to the cranial mass of the animal.

Here is my current study:

I'll be working through it some more until I have about 5 heads done then see where I'm at by then.

Officially I'm in term 1, but I've done animal construction before in a different course.

Uh, I was focused on it for a little while. Mainly because I really wanted to draw anthro dragons. Since then I've moved onto doing what you've said, learning to construct and such. I've made a separate topic in art critique where I'll be posting my studies for critique.
