Sketch thingys :P

Niiice sketchbook man!

So, I hope this is helpful and not intruding, but I just received this feedback here at the workshop and it DID help me, so why not share right?
I was going from black to white too fast on my own studies. Lowering the contrast on local areas of the piece, and on some materials actually made it look better - much better. Reserve black and white to the overall darkest/lightest area on your painting, use more midtone grays, and keep it consistent!

Hope it helps, love the Panda!

Thanks, if you refer to the executioner doodles I actually did that, I really only save the bright whites for rim light or on high fresnal metals, but I get the gist of what you mean, and I'm def improving on it :) and I never go full black, it might look like it but the lowest I go on black is 80%
