Hey welcome to Crimson Daggers Peter, nice start here :). I'm loving the paintings of the Asaro head nicely done. Good work with your figure studies as well.
Just one thing a noticed with a few of your female figures, you've drawn some of the hips too narrow in comparison to the shoulders (especially on the Hampton studies). Women tend to have proportionately wider hips than men.
Keep it going though - looking forward to more :).

Thank you for the warm welcome Artloader :) Thanks for the feedback, I didn't even notice I was drawing them so small. I think I will spend some time tomorrow working on my basic construction.

Hi Peter, welcome to the forums!
I really like your painting studies, specially the first ones, the head. what medium is it?
I like your gestures, they show nice 3dmensionality
Since you say you dont feel like they're helping you much, maybe you could supplement it with some longer figure studies?
Keep up the good work!

Hi Voodoo thanks for the welcome! :) Thanks very much, they turned out much better than I had imagined although I got some of the values slightly wrong on the 3/4 view. It's gouache btw.
When it comes to my gesture drawings I feel like I keep making the same mistakes over and over again due to the time limit so I was thinking it would perhaps be better to focus on 5 minute poses or untimed so that I can take my time and perhaps that might help.
Good suggestion btw, it's been awhile since I've done long poses so I'll give it a shot!

Awesome studies as always peter :D Maybe show some more stuff from imagination. And thanks for looking at my sketchbook *.* they are from imagination so i cant give you any book sadly. But look up krenz cusharts anatomy studies they are a big inspiration for me and when you look at them everything suddenly makes sense.

Artloader - Thanks man :) I kinda wore myself out after doing all those studies so didn't get alot done Thurs/Friday but it just means I will have to push myself harder next week.
Just a quick update for Thurs/Friday. Think I wore myself out after Wednesday because I just felt mentally tired (if that's a thing) afterwards and was in no mood to do alot of work (sigh), so I decided to watch some of the lecture videos that I have stockpiled away on my pc. Started with Charles Hu's anatomy workshop on the upper arm which I did a few drawings for and attempted some upper arm drawings from ref which went horribly wrong and never finished. I'm still having difficulties with seeing the muscles and unsure of there shapes from different angles so I'm gonna have to do some more reading on the subject and try and get my head around it.
