Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 12-27-2012
Hi guys,
my realname is Annett. I am a softwaredeveloper from germany with a heart full of art :-) I found you over the DA profile of brent.
My comfortzone is painting landscapes, mostly I do this in Painter 12 or with the traditional way. I am a great fan of Bob Ross.
At the moment I have two projects. I work on a landscape calendar and I will improve my skills in painting humans and creatures. I study gesture drawing with the Hampton book. After the gesturestudy I must improve my lightning and shading.
Here some gesture stuff

A snailestudy for practising. A bit burred because I did this on a ThinkPadTablet with SketchbookPro-App. Must staying in bed and can't use the Wacom. Next time I will use a bigger resolution.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Demon Lizardman - 01-01-2013
Looks like a nice stat so far. I would recommend some books by Vilppu, Andrew Loomis and Bridgeman for your anatomy and gestures. or your Digital Paintings, I would start by using a harder brush instead of a soft one.
Have you ever tried Traditional Painting?
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-01-2013
Some new gesture practise and a hand practise

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-02-2013
New sketches from yesterday before going to bed.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-03-2013
Today some sketches with the head. I studied in the book Figure Drawing by Michael Hampton.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Demon Lizardman - 01-03-2013
Do you know what book might help you? James Gurney's Color and Light book.
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-03-2013
I looked at this book and set it on my Amazon wishlist :-) at the moment I am on the proportions and perspective things. Next step is the light. So many books to read and so less time to read and practise. Thanks for the tip.
RE: Annamoons Sketches - foxflake - 01-09-2013
Nice to see you're doing some head studies :D And don't worry, keep drawing them and they'll start looking more human :)
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-13-2013
The last days I bought the Drawing Manual from Vilppu with th DVD for the first chapter. I found it great and did a lot of gesture drawing stuff. Today I scanned it. Sometimes I have the feeling it is too much contourdrawing.
Can someone give a crit if this is contourdrawing and where are my mistakes?

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-15-2013
And again gesture drawings.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-19-2013
I did some sketches for my sea-monster.
![[Image: skizzen17012013_1.jpg]](https://lh5.ggpht.com/-kRxPtNWprtY/UPmUX0OcPCI/AAAAAAAAAVU/Arp5do6dma0/s1600/skizzen17012013_1.jpg)
My first warhammer figure. :-D

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-20-2013
I put a water creature and a little warrior in my marshland scene. I hope that the lightning of them will succeed in the final. The colors of the fins are not the final color.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Craig Paton - 01-23-2013
Good stuff Annett, I like your gestural drawings and figure studies. :)
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-24-2013
So for my Marshlandwarrior I need a correct pose. I tried diffent poses.
![[Image: skizzen23012013_1.jpg]](https://lh3.ggpht.com/-wNPij1RgqCg/UQEUAGN12yI/AAAAAAAAAV8/Mi2NVde_cIM/s1600/skizzen23012013_1.jpg)
This is the pose I choose. I have trouble to draw the legs. His weight should be on his right leg, but the pose looks always stiff :-(
![[Image: skizzen23012013_2.jpg]](https://lh4.ggpht.com/-izB9r_59BAg/UQEUMtUkJrI/AAAAAAAAAWE/-qxDNejIUfE/s1600/skizzen23012013_2.jpg)
Hope that someone can show me where my 'bug' is.
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-26-2013
I did some sketches for my warrior
![[Image: IMG_20130126_101754.jpg]](https://lh5.ggpht.com/-c-zWeKqd4mg/UQOfgHnBhjI/AAAAAAAAAWY/Q5gbZtMigdw/s1600/IMG_20130126_101754.jpg)
I think thats the final warrior pose.

And a little Vilppu-sphere practise. All pics today are made on my tablet-pc.

RE: Annamoons Sketches - Reed - 01-26-2013
Hey Annett! I don´t know what it is, but i can´t see some of you pictures (maybe you have to re-link them or something) My tip for anatomy is: start with some bones first. It helped me a ton to do the challenges on http://www.quickposes.com/ in combination with some anatomy books of Bammes, Loomis (maybe andrew Loomis helped me the most here) and Hogarth. so keep it up, can´t wait to see more stuff from you ^^
*i fixed the problem with the pictures, it was my laggy webbrowser ;)
RE: Annamoons Sketches - Annamoon - 01-26-2013
Thanks for the feedback and the link. I like posingmachine-links :-) I have Loomis and Vilppu and Bridgman books. At the moment I think Vilppu helps me a lot because there are videos of him sketching. I love it how he build the gesture with such softness.
I have problems with my warriorsketches because I do they out of imagination. And I was a bit lazy the last days, I must do more practise.
I'm glad to hear that the pictureproblem was your browser. I have already considered which pic I had deleted on the source. :-)
