tripna's sketchbook

[tripna]

Hello everyone, I'm tripna, 20 and from Turkey. I'm an art school dropout, have been studying much more seriously for around 3 months now, and I just started working in digital last week. 

Most of my studies were about figure/anatomy/gesture and generally drawing. I don't really have any experience painting so recently I've been trying to figure out values etc. Here is a dump of around a week of studies/sketches. I'll write descriptions for all of them.

I'm always open to crit and it is very very welcome, it's the reason I'm making this thread, so please don't event care about being nice or anything, just lay it on me.

Watched a Steve Huston vid about values, don't mind the Turkish notes on them :D

Top half photo gestures, bot half sketches from imagination.




Started applying values, just experimenting, all from imagination.



Some more terrible values lol, the big figure with decent shading is from photo.



All from muh head.



Again drawing and shading from imagination.



Quick value studies, times written on them, from photo.



Photo gestures



More photo gestures.



Quick value studies, last one from imaginatrio.



Felt like I didn't really know the forearm's anatomy. So studied that from NewMasters. Rest is me trying to apply it to imagination.



Some more frustrations with value.
