Pukrolli's Sketchbook

[Pukrolli]

  I feel like I need to focus way more on drawing, but colouring is so much more fun...
   Perspective is so difficult to master. I want to do more perspective drawings and focus more on mechs, vehicles and architecture to improve my perspective, but I have no patience while drawing such perspective-heavy objects. :( My lack of patience is really getting in my way, I think. Not only do I not want to study, but I'm only willing to spend 2-3 hours on each finished piece D:

On the bright side, after over a year, I've finally been able to utilize Blunt Pencil's advice :D so I've been drawing more pictures from imagination, and doing some studies after finishing them. Now I feel like I can draw so much compared to before when I burnt out after doing hours of mindless studies, and art actually feels fun again. Plus I have actual pictures to post instead of sketches! :D I feel like I'm improving a lot faster too.

Working with one hue, learning about saturation and value. The result is okay, but I think the water needs more form and the design is weak



Trying to practice subsurface scattering. Mixed results



I didn't really think about values before painting this one, so it's a bit messy :( realized that I need to focus on perspective, gesture and clothing/drapery



Really failed with this one :( just goes to show that it is difficult to paint a bad drawing. Definitely need to work on perspective and architecture a lot more
