Lyraina - Ahaha, yeah! I always found it a nice motivation when I see other artists do this kinda dry stuff as well. It really does take a ton of repetition for something like this to sink in (at least for me). Thanks for dropping by - you're awesome!
Update! A bunch of drawings ahoy!
More freehand ID sketching practice. Finally made it through Scott Robertson's perspective form drawing tutorial without giving up halfway (usually out of boredom and frustration). Lots of repetition and trial and error but I'm finally getting the hang of how to construct forms accurately. Of course, my draftsmanship could still use a lot of improvement - but that's what practice is for!
Also practicing planar forms - or more specifically, faceted and bending planar forms. Turned out to be much tougher than I expected - I kept confusing myself and made tons of mistakes before I finally understood how to construct the forms accurately and efficiently. One helpful trick is to first find the correct "points in space" and then connecting the points with linework after.
