Fei Ou - Thanks man, i wish i started the sketchbook at the start of the year when i started doing art, that way when my harddrive died i would still have it all. It motivates me too xD. Still got a long way to go though...
Jon Hop - Thanks too! Means alot :D
Bit of a strange week, glad i managed to get Dan's mentoring done. Thinking harder about how to arrange my schedule, thinking of including way more memory stuff and less spaced, because i think alot of the schedule was just an excuse for me to be a bit lazy. Gotta force that memory and imagination! Well at least i do xD. So here's the week.
30 sec Gestures/Anatomy. I hadn't done gestures in ages so wanted to try it out again. My 30 sec ones almost match my 2 min ones ages ago :D. Reminds me i want to check the gestures to ref see any common mistakes. Might be a good idea?
Final week on schedule for this kind of clothing. Clouds next 3 weeks?
Wanted to draw one again because had been a long time. I should probably mention the tanks i draw are usually drawn from flat ortho's from a book. Perspective did not get easier. Need to practice hard surface way more.
Following tutorial/process by Shaddy Safadi that was posted on the forum during the week. Really enjoyed it. Tried to keep the brushstrokes 'fresh', but i'm pretty sure i failed on the whole. Well, gotta get that first failure out of the way. And the rest of those failures...
Dan's mentoring stuff.
I also started practicing caligraphy instead of doing lines/curves drills in the morning. Nice change of pace. Right now just tracing templates, i forgot to upload it, will show next week. Oh and the ipad stuff i need to remember that too. Though i didn't manage to make time to do plein air stuff. Hopefully next week.
See you guys next week, thanks for reading/lookin.
