@Ognjisa - Thanks man :) I hope so haha! Feels good and also mega scary at the same time. It's weird because I remember a few years ago when I was much more of a natural sketcher it wasn't scary, it was just a lot of fun to explore and doodle but so often now there's just an unfair amount of pressure that imagination things *SHOULD* be on the same level as observational, which is a ludicrous idea. Thanks for the encouragement, keep killin it :D
@JosephCow - Thank you! :D I did 3 years at the Swedish Academy of Realist Art so it was very much focused on traditional drawing and painting.
Todays update, didn't do too much today - hung out with a friend. I feel like I'm learning things though with the heads. They're getting more and more intuitive and I've started combining it with references in some of them to just see if i can sort of X-ray the photos and understand the structure of that person. It's been a lot of fun, I will continue. Planning to take them a bit further also in terms of the neck and clavicles, to see if I can get those in there. It's one of those things that are "easy" to kind of bullshit and fake it till ya' make it, but really understanding the neck fully and how the head is attached to the shoulder girdle is definitely a challenge that I have.
Any critiques are as usual very welcome, shred em into pieces!
