What ImSkeptical learnt this week (Sketchbook)

[ImSkeptical]

Thanks as always Dennis. My excuse for the narrative is magic xD, which is also why she gets to wear skimpy clothes in the snow.

Thanks Ursula, but yours is much better than mine, I'm envious of you people and your pencil rendering skills.

So this week pretty much more of the same. I pretty much took a day off though because I realized tea had way more caffeine than i thought, so i thought 6 cups a day might be abit counter productive. So i went cold turkey and got these crazy caffeine headaches, but now I'm all good. Only hot chocolate for me! :D

Studies from "cabin in the woods", great film, some quick studies some slower.


Taking notes from Hannes, i'm going to make more of an effort to do pure imaginative/memory stuff. I have mixed feelings about it, but I feel that there probably is significant gains from pushing how far you can get without looking at anything. My memory's trash anyway and needs some training. So here's some no ref faces and a rendering that came out way better than I thought i could do from no ref.


Learning about guns




Rotating is getting better?


More 3d. I really need to experiment on whether 3d or 2d would be faster to detail


Thanks for looking. Also these two tumblers

are amazing. I'm not sure but I think one of the artists on Skullgirls (a good fighting game) runs them. Anyone able to tell me if that's correct? Or where the dudes art/portfolio is?

Cya next week
