Peter's Sketchbook

[Peter]

i think itd do you some good to get a pen and just sketch a bunch of heads quickly, because you spend a good bit of time on the line weight and shading on each head, and you really need mileage.

Just sketch whatever you imagine, stylize it a bit, and i really think you'll benefit from it. Your heads are very robotic and emotionless, and their features are you know, handled with caution but not attractive. study some comic artists like J scott Campbell or someone and try to get some energy and life in your head drawings, loosen up basically, sketches like Wes Burt. draw lots, dont spend an hour on each ;)

Yh I was too focused on the construction and making sure everything was correct placement wise, in all of my work i'm too rigid and focused on the underlying construction that I forget to twist and bend the lines and insert that sexiness that's missing.

I like your idea of quick sketching heads hundreds of times so I'll  start doing it next week. Have some free time during lunch on Monday's so I'll make it a habit to do it then and try and squeeze some more in during the week aswell when I have a spare 20-30 mins or so.
