Amit: ah man, that's cool! You think drawing an idea to the best of my knowledge, finding where I hit a wall and studying accordingly a good idea? Any suggestions? And YES I WILL FINISH SOMETHING FOR SUURE! soon haha
angeliquevdmee: thanks! Guess I'll jump into imaginative work tomorrow morning! Then study accordingly, I suppose. Sorta nervous to see all that I don't know :(((
John: Material studies, for sure! Gonna do a digital still life painting this week! Let's see what I get from it. Thanks for explaining the use of master studiessss
This morning's studies (did these before reading the above posts)...took some notes after doing some anatomy, value, and sketchy stuff:
value: render each muscle form sorta like a sphere...note the continuous edge of shadow on multiple forms....watch for where the light hits....notice how the shadows fall and wrap around underlying forms.
antatomy: study figure in basic shapes...i have more problems drawing the lower torso and legs
I noticed that the loomis method does not apply to all heads (duh) Feels like I have so much moooooore too learn before drawing stuff from my own brain. Like, I forgot how to draw heads and map features completely lmao
OH and question: I can draw remember poses via shapes and their relationships to each other (basically symbols) but it's harder to draw things from an anatomical standpoint... Is this bad? How the hell do I fix this? Do need to fix this, necessarily?
