RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Craig Paton - 03-30-2013
A few drawings and stuff from the past week. Slim pickings, as I've been working on a few things, actual proper work things, with real money and all.
I've also been working my way through the exercises within Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, in the hope that it will help improve my ability to draw from imagination.
Couple of figure and face studies.

Awesome one. Was it from life?
RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Craig Paton - 04-10-2013
Sadly not, just from ref. I'm much too poor to buy my own skull to draw from.
RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Lumens - 04-11-2013
You know theres always other ways of obtaining skulls..
Love how you handled the Cumberbatch portrait!
your grasp on anatomy is far better than mine, all i can say is those edges need some love too.
RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Jaik - 04-11-2013
haha great mass effect char, scrolling through I thought 'that looks like its from mass effect' before i read the explanation, so it fits :) That skull is also awesome. keep up the good work, and congrats on getting chosen for the class :)
RE: Craig's Sketchbook - hollinrake - 04-11-2013
So much love for your recent posts. It may have something to do with Cumberbatch but I'm not saying anything.
RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Craig Paton - 04-15-2013
Put together a Deviant Art improvement meme. Not usually the kind of thing I'd participate in, but I thought it might help me to put my work into some kind of perspective.
Check out my DA gallery for the high res version (with added grumbling in the descriptions).

RE: Craig's Sketchbook - Jaik - 04-25-2013
Nice updates, looks like you are really gettting a lot out of Suzannes class. Those last portraits have some great colour in them. Though the one of the left looks like they may possibly be missing a bit of height on their cranium. Keep up the good work though :)
