Mmmm. Well, if you're you're not one for wanting crits, then sure, no need to bother with scanning everything - but you'd be surprised what other people can pick up what you're not seeing in these sketch pages... and (especially)the 30sec-2min gesture studies.

ecently, my work has been - 2+ hours timed drawings with 15-30 min breaks depending how long the drawing session was, the environment stuff - which honestly has been a lot of reading and watching youtube as much as actual pencil on paper, and the inktober stuff.. not getting much else done ;-;

Well my other reason for not posting much from my sketchbook is it's a big mix of stuff, the studies aren't the only thing on the page and it's not worth cropping them out.

times figure drawings - 30 second and 2 minute don't really count as worth anything but practise.. certainly not worth scanning and uploading

So you post all those sketches to dA but not here? And lol ofc it's not a fun time guys. Just put some music on and scan away <3

Yeah for me, spending 5 minutes scanning something I drew in 10 minutes is not my idea of a good time.

I'd rather spend that time drawing

because scanning 60+ pages, uploading to dA, and them copy pasta to here each week would take /5eva/

;-; why don't people like to dump _all_ their sketch pages in their daggers sketchbook!? It's the best place to do it. No judgment here. Unless it's just a lazy thing lol

I just post a couple of pages from the ..gods.. I dunno /how/ many I do each week.. daily maybe 5-10 pages, depending how many sketches get dumped on each page

don't be afraid to post /all/ your studies. Even if you don't wants crits on your work, it's a great way to self-reflect every time you update your sketchbook

But in general I'm not in the habit of keeping my sketches, considering I fill a page every ten minutes that stuff stacks up way too quickly.

And what Punk-A-Cat said - copy paper all the way

SketchStick: YOU SHREDDED THEM?! LOL NOOO! In terms of studies for me: good and bad. Learning a ton, stepping out of the comfort zone this october

I usually default to a clipboard with some acid-free printer paper in it.

Well actually I'm only using the sketchbooks because they've been sitting on my shelf forever and I need to get rid of them. So I'm just filling them up and then tossing them in the bin.

It's weird, I kind of want to share those sketchbooks because it's evidence that I've been busy and there's a few things in there I like. But at the same time I'd sooner die than have that stuff public and lingering on the net.

Sketch, I draw on copy paper, have stacks and stacks of it, don't use sketchbooks, they don't lie flat blah blah, way too annoying

It's an illusion; those shit sketchbooks exist!!

I'll never understand how some artists have pretty sketchbooks, since I usually use them to attempt things I'm horrible at... over and over and over.

If anybody new to exercise wants to start, just let me know and I'll share what information I've gathered over the years and benefited ME. Dat be all.

We got any bodybuilders in daggers? I kinda lost my path as far as consistency with workouts and reverse dieting and I was wondering if anybody wanted to begin a 6-8month bulk with me. Keep each other on task. I can do it on my own, but it's always more fun with a buddy (talking macros, exercises etcetc) . Taking new before pics tomorrow morning...not like I'll be sharing them haha

Now I have a good grasp on how to construct the proportions and all that, I need to stop drawing them so fat and meaty.

It's too late for that, I keep a shredder by my desk and it didn't occur to me.

In hind-sight, I probably should've scanned those hundred hands I sketched...
