Jerry's Sketchbook ( Noooobie )

[JerryActric]

Finally back from driving interstate thank gawwwddd. Drove about 3500km ! but means i can get back into drawing <3

so not much, but some figures. Some from loomis some from imagination, basically made me hate life haha and a dog photo that explains me trying to get better at art haha

then just did some doodles and a quick speed paint with no ref out of frustration !

Learnt today: playing with hot and cold .. Jerry has no idea about torso or pelvic anatomy and needs to do some studies !

[JerryActric]

Some more stuffffff from today

Gestures, then the rest from imagination, form in space practice, and then some perspective zombie stuff, Then a Study from a photo for hallways !

[JerryActric]

Just some painnnnttting studies today !

[JerryActric]

Today just did some gestures and put a dint in that study

[JerryActric]

Finished the study, did a self portrait that made me want to destroy all life :(
but then a zombie speed study and also learnt how to make a custom brush ! so tried to make a super textured brush and use only that to paint something. Purely just to see what it was like !

haha thanks Brother ! I hope your finding progress in your work also !


Here is some stuff from today, Tried some negative space gestures which where very hard, then did some paint on the linework from a few days ago. Trying to think about the light reflecting off the guys armour !

Then i day dreamed about going to the art school. Still not sure how, but i will find the money to go and live in the city there !.

then just some sketchbook dooooodles from imagination before bed

[JerryActric]

so today i did not get much done,! eh i hate the days where i cant draw much haha.

but did some work on the zombie knight battle guy ! some more gesture stuff and a pin prick of the female loomis pages, also a few doodles from imagination just because there fun ! !

One thing that really interest me is light and value's. I want to learn more about them! because my stuff looks very washed out and chalky because i do not understand value enough yet. Im going to paint a butt load of stuff from life and read some theory on colour and light.

[JerryActric]

anatomy day ! some stuff from loomis, but looking up each muscle on https://www.biodigitalhuman.com/ so that i can really understand it. I have trouble determining all the information from the drawing, the origins ect. So using the 3d model i can really understand it !

also i want to get nice linework in photoshop, so ill focus my drawing in photoshop for a few days

then some figures from imagination to test what i really learnt !

Wow, You have been working really hard. And I can definitely see improvement . Keep it up. The only thing I would say is to try some environments. Its really good to try different things.

[JerryActric]

the internet decided to go down for a day, So here is the stuff from the last two days :)
Wanted to learn about ues so i studies some works, trying to focus on the values and not the details ! . I noticed that there are lots and lots of variations on every part of the form. If you dont allow for the value changes the object looks flat, interesting but now to try and put it in practice !
