Oh boy, lots of failure today. I thought I was a little more ahead than this.
Drew cylinders from RL and from the imagination; drawing from the imagination is tough. Getting those ellipses just right and making the cylinder not look flat/crushed...
Then I spent over an hour (about 1 hr 15 min; timing myself now) trying to go from gesture to a constructed figure. My work is so amateurish and I'm wondering if I've learned anything at all. There's a million ways to construct a figure and all I can seem to do okay is the first step - gesture.
Gonna go draw myself in the mirror after this and see if I can at least get the proportions right in one gesture. Not going to bother building on top of it.
