Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah Staying Awake

Oh, yeah! I have that book, actually. I bought it a long time ago and haven't used it anywhere near as much as I should. Since you mentioned it, I busted it out and have been drawing a little from it. :) The pictures are much more fun, like you say. To learn individual muscles, though, I definitely prefer goldfinger, since it covers every muscle in depth. I've always had an academic oriented mind, and I was even looking at Gray's Anatomy earlier this year; for me, I almost want that medical understanding for anatomy. Both books are awesome, thanks so much for reminding me of it!

Thank you! Actually, that one is meant to be a bunny boy. Whoop. But yeah, I love doing monotone paintings, so you can still play around with saturation to add differentiation.

Thanks so much! ;A; Thank you for mentioning what you think I do well, too, it's good to know. For sure, you're right. I need to focus more on textures, it's something I've thought about a little while doing paintings, but more of an after-thought and of how to "cheat" textures instead of actually dealing with them. A lot of my textures do fall really short, now that you have me thinking about it I'm going to be sure to do some material studies really soon! Again, thanks so much for the feedback!

I see a lot of you here posting pages and pages of your drawings, so I thought to myself that I should stop hoarding a lot of my studies and drawings to myself, especially since I want feedback. Here's the art I've made since the last time I posted, most of them are studies; I'm trying to think a lot about how the shapes form and are designed on the human body, really focusing on the graphic, designed shapes in fashion.
