Darkiste: Thanks for always schooling me :)
Artloader: Lovin the journeys all i got!!
Riley: yes, Riley rhythms, or the watts rhythms, which are more advanced. To get them you have to get the drawing course on watts atelier for a month and download the workbooks. You can find frank rileys original rhythms on google which are honestly not great, but the get the idea.. I think they're drawn by this guy john fahrgosso or something, and he wasnt very good at drawing but knew frank riley and wrote a book about it. The point of them is to copy and memorize the swinging rhythms from feature to feature and once you copy them enough you start to visualize them, like an invisible grid.
It helps massively for aligning features and building a solid face quickly. The figure rhythms do the same thing, again rileys are cryptic and hard to understand, but watts are very robust and worth the time and money to study. Theyre extremely satisfying to lay in once you get the hang of it, and watching jeff do it is very important. There are two friday night lives from jeff watts on youtube where you can watch him and the boring as hell Erik Gist (whos extremely good tho) do quicksketch and demonstrate these techniques. They are quite obscure and not many people know them, but they are very worth the time and investment :). Watts has the best instruction on it, i cannot find very much information on it outside of that aside from some mediocre youtube things.
And do check in, i post pretty much every day but it gets iffy on fridays and saturdays since im doing street caricature to pay bills since well, I dont have much a portfolio to get any kind of work online, nor do i feel im good enough to make one currently.
Alrightey, nother pit stop on the road to hell with ol fedo. Got an art show to prepare for next month, were ill be sellin some figure drawings hopefully. All money will go to paying for cell phone, internet, hospital, and watts billz. Gotta crank it out and do a good job, so im back on quicksketch for round 2. Already feeling better about em, gonna be painful, but everything i do izzzzzzzzzz
