AlCo's Sketchbook
#1
Hello again everyone, decided to open up a thread and share with you what I've been doing (please give me some constructive critiques if you can, that would be much appreciated!)

Here are some studies (I don't even know if those can be called like that) I've been doing in the past weeks from George Bridgman's book "Drawing from Life". I apologise for the lack of quality, halfway through scanning the sketchbook I didn't figure out a better way to improve the quality, therefore I went on to take some with my crappy phone.

At this point, I don't really know what I'm doing. Looks like I'm just trying to draw the reference (that why I refrain from call those studies). I'm also struggling with the concept of values, I'd really like to grasp it. Not totally confident about my lines too. Does this will come eventually with a lot of practice of course?

I also pretended to be able to study one of Rapoza's work, I didn't use a graphic tablet for a while but:

I really didn't get how he managed to get that solid lineart, mine looks blurry and meh.

Here I have a knee study based on Sinix's tutorial:

I watched him and tried to do mine (with reference, of course).

One last thing, I'm following Draw-a-Box online course about Dynamic Sketch on /reddit. Here is a collection of Lesson 1: http://imgur.com/a/ze4SG


Sooooo, a lot of things going on, I'm confused about my routine (unfortunately I can't focus all day on practicing, since I have a full-time job, but I draw whenever I get back home) and I feel everything is a mess with no purpose at all.
One of the main reason I decided to join this community is to be able to understand what kind of daily practice I need or on what I should pay more attention, i don't know, I'm feeling overwhelmed even in just thinking about it XD

Well, thanks a lot if you read everything and had the patience to scroll all the way down here. I'm looking forward to hear by you, thanks peeps!

A.
