Sula's Sketchbook

[Ursula Dorada]

Dennis, when making the grid are you actually drawing it on top of the original and then moving it to the study as a frame of reference? Sorry if it seems obvious, just thought I would give this a try and don't want to be cheating myself on my studies.

@Grundalug, what I have done about the grid is something like this: I open the image I am going to use as reference, place photoshop guide that will allow me to find major masses of the images, than I go to image>duplicate and clear the canvas.
This way I have the same guides and the same canvas size on both images.
It feels a bit like training wheels, that's why I am still sketching once without grid, once with the grid and checking what I have missed on my gridless study. I can tell you the differences are becoming smaller.

And thank you ;)

@Ryk: haha thanks man! I will try to scan some and post it. Just can't promise when. I really suck with pencils lol
