vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-08-2013
Sup everyone. Just wanted to start my sketchbook here and get better like everyone else here is.
To start, here are some master studies I did.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-08-2013
And here's some still life studies I did.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-10-2013
Here are some memory studies I've been trying.
Heres a Sargent study I did. The second panel is from memory afterwards and the third is corrections I did after I opened the original. This exercise really helps; You see all the things you just don't pay attention to when copying ans going on autopilot.
photo study of the same thing
for these I just didn't bother showing the second step.

That's great that your doing master copies. I would like to see some of your sketchbook if that is alright.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-12-2013
Demon Lizardman - Sure. Here's what I have in CA.org - conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?182840-Help-Me-Get-Better
Now here's some stuff from imagination I did. These were for the CGhub and CA challenges in the past few weeks. This is the stuff I plan to post more often.

Wow
i really like those studies ! great job!
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-14-2013
Ioan Chirita - thanks man. Just trying to get better.
Here's some stuff I did for recent CGHub and CA challenges.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-15-2013
More still life I did a few weeks ago. The human bust is really getting to me in terms of difficulty. On the first one I tried natural daylight and the dim light made it very hard to capture the lights vs darks. On the other three, I started with line to help block out the shapes, then went to values & colors. Its way more easier to go that route then to go straight into blocking in shapes.

Rally enjoyed browsing through this, keep up the awesome work. Also really love the idea of doing a study, repainting it from memory and then doing corrections.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-17-2013
catfist - Thanks. I needed to find ways to apply my studies to my personal work and this seems to be a good exercise.
here's some master studies
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-18-2013
photo studies.
some of these are a few months old.
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - joelhustak - 01-19-2013
Hey Vatteh, These latest portraits are looking great! I like the idea of those studies where you show the version from you memory and the corrections afterwards, very interesting to look at. Keep up the good work!
RE: vatteh's sketchbook - vatteh - 01-19-2013
joelhustak - Thanks man. Yeah, I feel that this is a good exercise and that I'm improving. But I got a long ways to go.
