hey, the value range on these are great but you should try and push outside your comfort zones and try some color aswell

[Wardy]

this is a fantastic sketchbook mate, keep it up! really loving your commitment to perspective studies and still lifes, need to get off my ass and do the same!

Those value exercises from the first page look like something I need to do. I can definitely see them paying off in your still life and armor studies.

Some 30 mins challenges with reflective surfaces and gems. Each panel was done in 30 min max. These were really fun to do.
I will work with color soon, don't worry! I need first to get a full understanding of values, light and space. One step a time, there is no need to rush and then not knowing why stuff isn't working.

More rendering practice with crystals.

those excercises are amazing! Is this part of an assignment? Are you enrolled in a artschool?

Thank you both! No, these are all self-imposed studies.
Okay, how light bounces and reflections work.
