Studies, comps... I'm excited to do the second Whis and beerus one when I have time, probably in a couple of days, since my schedule got messed up and I have a lot of client work due in twenty some hours... lol
Quick Supreme Kai + Kibito sketch ( using one of the comps up there)
Solid advice and critique Rick Richards, thanks and I found it helpful, and I appreceiate the feedback a great deal. I don't see these things sometimes, lol. I absolutely don't mind you painting over my images, though. I'm trying to keep in ming wrapping, since I'm into Dave Rapoza, and he demonstrates the effect in his Bog Witch tutorial. I try but I think it's hindered by my lack of skill in perspective (another area aside from anatomy that I've really been neglecting).
Thanks Amit Dutta. My lines suuuuuck, I agree. I need to and want to improve my stroke count and line quality, it's just so hard to focus on that! lol. I will draw with that in mind though. It really will help me and I know that. As for my studies, they are mainly form and lght studies, but I have always been scared of going too dark because I can so easily mess up an image with darks.... But, it's literally a study, so why am I thinking this way? Argh. I'm afraid of spending too much time on one thing, one study, and losing ffocus and not learning anything, like getting into copy mode and not actually understanding why I'm drawing something a certain way. I don't know, maybe I just have to study more, definitely have to take more time and be patient.
Apprecite all your guys' comments that I haven't responded to individually, thanks.

1. Use the biggest brush possible for a given passage.
2. Paint large shapes first, followed by small shapes.
3. Save your tonal and chromatic accents until the last.
4. Try to soften any edge that doesn’t need to be sharp.
5. Take time to get the center of interest right.
Or, the briefer version: (B.L.A.S.T.)
Big brushes.
Large to small.
Accents last.
Soften edges.
Take your time.
