What ImSkeptical learnt this week (Sketchbook)

[ImSkeptical]

Thanks Jerry.

So i uploaded all my pencil stuff for golden boy, but i don't know where to submit yet so ill just post it up here. I also finished the metal gear fan art thing i guess, i spent way to much time fixing mistakes and it still has broken anatomy in the end :(. Gonna do more concept/ideation/accurate foundation sketches next month, probably not bother with any fully rendered stuff. Maybe ill do design challenges each week.



I want to emphasize that i did next to no designs in pencil, and infact copied some of the designs of artists i like for fun/learning/detailed observation. So basically this was me just learning how execute with pencil better this month.

































Once again, anything cool probably was somebody else's creative work.

I think maybe its not worth posting so much? I already restrained myself from posting up all the loose gesture stuff. As you can see, a lot of studies relating to some of the works i've been doing. I guess what i learned the most about working with pencil is a more thorough understanding of form change = change in value or at least representation of value (i.e hatch another direction), and how to model forms with the 'camera flash' sort of lighting that a lot of pencil people seem to be able to pull off so well.

Thanks for looking if you did. Small side note, watch the movie looper that just came out. It is the best film since forever. Like seriously, do it. Its amazing. True cinema.
