Hey sickbrush, are you still willing to mentor individuals that AREN'T part of your selected study group? I know all people are willing to follow the class and the assignments, but, are you going to undertake any other students now or in the future?

Right now, I am working on the first assignment, trying my hardest to catch up, but I would love to be a part of the critiques and other exclusive content as well.

Head Assignment-Completed

Since this class is over and nobody is realllly critiquing intensely (or critiquing AT ALL for that matter), I'll be posting this assignment in the CRITIQUES thread for someone to tear it up an lend some fresh eyes as well as some advice on what to improve on.

Painted Object Study! My second painting, I like it a lot.

Assignment #3..Just the sickle thing and the background is just basic. But this being a texture study, I thought it would be fine.

[Marina]

Hey Manny!
Being a texture study we painted the background also. It will help pop out the sickle more and will look more natural as it reflects the light and borrows some hues from the background.

Hmmmm...a very unforgiving task hahaha. I attempted it, however, it made my knife look REALLY UNREALISTIC because it didn't match the same amount of quality as the knife. I didn't want to stamp the background with some sort of cloned texture nor spend 2-4 hours designing it...so I said "what the hay, let us paint this puppy white"

A very elaborate excuse...indeed; I'm proud of it.

oH, the shadow needs to die as well.

Hey guys,

I'm going to be following this class as well. I know its over but the material's great and I'm really looking to improve my digital work.

Thanks Sickbrush, for the great material!

Here are the Caucasian Heads I did, more to come.

[anzhou]

Heya,

Asian heads, the soft curves are really challenging, learned lots doing these right after the caucasian ones :)
