Bookend's Sketchbook

iamorim : No worries, man.  We're here to learn together and try to help each other out, right?

Thanks, I will.  My next goal is going to be perspective related, mwa hahaha.

Rhasdra: Yep-- This is why I do a lot of application studies nowadays.  But, I used to have a terrible habit of just copying.  I'll still do some of those for when I reeeally need to be in my comfort zone.  I'll try more black and white studies, but honestly, I've done so many of those that I think I should go back and forth between colour studies.  Maybe do a black and white study, then a colour study of the same subject.  I think the black and white would be great for composition understanding.

Thanks so much, and I will!

Piotr Jasielski: Great advice!  I'll definitely try this method next time I'm doing a big ol' study.  Thanks so much!

lurch: I kinda got frustrated with the CHOW.  I'm still proud of it, but I really wasn't sure where to take it, especially with colour values.

WOOO. Finaallyy finished my goal!  88x88.  More references than 88, but I didn't count 'em.

I'm guessing I'm at 40 hours/10,000.  We'll say that, and I'll start timing again.

Also did a little comic strip.  I dunno if you guys saw 'The magic school bus' when you were kids, but I did.  So the strip is based on that.

Annnd...  I'm gonna make a goal about perspectives/environments.  I've been neglecting perspective for far too long.  Amit's mentorship couldn't have come at a better time.  I'm psyched. 

So, yeah.
