What ImSkeptical learnt this week (Sketchbook)

[ImSkeptical]

JordyLakiere - Thanks man, my linework used to be horrendous so good to know its getting a bit better :D

Samszym - Thanks again!

CoreyH - Thanks! I stole the thumbnail style off Maciej Kuciara and Jama Jurabaev, who do it a million times better. Make sure to look them up if you havn't!

Jaik - Yeah can't wait to catch up man!

I shouldn't have put the one i wasn't feeling in the centre :(. Maybe i'll thumbnail out some different angles and comps. Or i'll just do my giant hammer one like i wanted xD.

----------------

So this week I don't really anything. But I have a legitimate excuse this time, work called me back for most of the week! So yeah, in addition to being lazy, I had to work on a storyboard this week. Might happen every now and again, though to be honest it I hope it doesn't happen too much, makes me really lazy. Here's what I managed to scrounge together.

Traditional stuff




I actually realize I avoid photographing any of my really bad traditional stuff, usually the stuff without ref from imagination :( . I promise next time I'll upload it regardless for you nice people, but yeah, keep in mind my social pressure to look awesome means every time I was like I didn't bother to upload other traditional stuff, I was probably lying and hiding my terrible stuff :p. I also never upload when I copy other peoples sketches because, I dunno, I feel like I would have to somehow attach to the image that its after someone else and not my concept or idea or drawing or whatever. I think its a good exercise btw, studying a sketch, you can try glean some of the calligraphy and shorthand that artists use, also you get an idea of how careful/mindful/awesome you need to be to sketch something cool. Anyway, I doubt I'll bother uploading any of those ever, but I thought I'd put the idea out there for anyone who wants to try it. Just take like a kim jung gi sketch or a john park sketch or some awesome little sketch by someone you like and do a 'master study'.

Anyway, more random sketching



Portrait Studies




K thanks for stopping by. Hoping for a productive next week, should be starting on some longer piece! Unless work calls me in again :(
