So, only got a few thumbnail studies of masters today, mainly waterhouse and a zorn. Today, I was getting my koala ears scrubbed in a bath and man i was having these crazy thoughts like some doors in my head had opened as far as composition. It was like magic almost, like my brain was putting together cool scenes one after the other of like witches and goats and forests and stuff it was so cool! It's like i mentioned before I felt the topic was limited but my brain showed me just how much possibility with drama, shape, and light you can make with any given subject. 

Yea it was... awesome, if you feel stuck give that a try, and find some great painters you love and make notes and little thumbnails of their work and it may help you get unstuck. Then draw up one of those scenes and look for your weakspots and you'll know where to go from there.

Will be doing more Gnass tomorrow hopefully, part four, got 2 more to do; parts that is. Should be about 20 more hrs of work, but I'm soooo ready lol. Gnass has helped me loads and got me way more clear headed as far as approaching figures and perspective. Also got a lotta books laying around, need to get to them soon  as well... SO MUCH TO DO!!


RE: Fedodika the Koala - Fedodika - 09-09-2017

Had a kinda wierd day, didn't get much done, but did some imagination figures. I was gonna crop out the ones that aint the one on the far left but i wanted to keep it real and show the failz getting up to that one. I really like that one, it has the level of energy and structure i want in my figures, which, if I warm up enough will start getting. Its more just me having to put this stuff I've learned to practice and instill it in my head better, but I am still gonna try to finish up all of gnass vids on NMA before the 21st which is my next mentor thing

RE: Fedodika the Koala - Fedodika - 09-10-2017

So, I thought long and hard (pun) about this post today... 

Okay so the first part says "WTF draw some dudes."
Which is complete fucking bullshit because clearly I am drawing dudes, maybe not so much imaginative stuff, but hey, cum on. There's your first logical phallusy

>then the next thing says 
……………………………………….¸„„„„
…………………….…………...„--~*'¯…….'\
………….…………………… („-~~--„¸_….,/ì'Ì
…….…………………….¸„-^"¯ : : : : :¸-¯"¯/'
……………………¸„„-^"¯ : : : : : : : '\¸„„,-"
**¯¯¯'^^~-„„„---~^*'"¯ : : : : : : : 
.:.:.:.:.„-^" : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 
:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: : : : : : : : : : ¸„-^¯
.::.:.:.:.:.:.:.:. : : : : : : : ¸„„-^¯

.:.:.: : : : :" : : : : \,
:.: : : : : : : : : : : : 'Ì
: : : : : : :, : : : : : :/
"- „_::::_„-*__„„~""

Which could mean something quite specific, like a show of dominance; the implication of the phallus heirarchy. To which, I shall thrust my righteous cock right back out at you, so get a load of that.

Then it says, "forget dudes, draw penis gestures. Get to the crux of your aesthetic, don't fight it."

This is an extremely interesting sentence... Penises can be floppy, straight, or kinda curved... Like a gesture would be in general. Now the penis he indicated is straight, very dominant and asserting. To that, I'd say it doesn't resemble my gestures because they're very floppy in some cases. And in other cases they're very stiff and seldom a succesful combination of the two. 

On the other hand he could mean the psychological implication of a penis as something good or bad. Like penises could be good, (as a symbol of fertility and sexuality,) you know I love me some futa girls I won't lie, but dicks can also be bad. Generally if someone calls you a dick, that's a bad thing. Dicks also have a funny smell and can be ugly if you have had a bad experience with them.

I'm getting all these contradictions in my head that years of studying philosophy haven't prepared me for... What does this all mean?

In conclusion, I suppose I don't understand this post; maybe Amit was drinking when he wrote it, but it's profound in very meaningful ways... Who knows if it's a compliment, a really clever insult, or some highly lucid banter. In a funny way, it feels like something I myself have written before... The world may never know---------------------------

>Still can't believe he wrote this
>That really activated my almonds



Voodoo: Very kind my friend, but i got a lot to do before any studio would be remotely interested in my stuff. 

So, anyways, more gnass, trying to get better at meditation so I can silence my irrelevant and unhelpful thoughts that plague me throughout the day.

Your anatomy and shapes of the bodyparts start getting really nice!

Cool, you're doing meditation? I've been trying to improve at that myself, not paticularly good at it though since my brain never likes to shutoff lol.

Greg: Thx man your comment made my day :)

TRIGGERED: Yesh! Here's some stuff if you're curious

Pushed myself a lot today on the Gnass stuff, getting in lots of new knowledge. Color quiz says im lazy so it must be a productive day! The ones on the far left just top and bottom are from imagination (Also the skinny female body from the front.) I see a development in them for sure, but I'm still struggling with some of the shoulder muscles, it's kinda easy to get lost in all those round shapes like the infraspinatus, teres major/minor, shit like that. I feel like I'm in a transitional state, so i'm not sure when my next finished piece will be; probably mmm... well I have no idea, I don't feel like I can meet my own quality standard at this point.

I'm really starting to believe this fundamentals/perspective stuff is true. I know its foolish to be skeptical of those things, but it's very caught up in my nature to question everything everyone tells me about what works and what doesn't. I think any slowness in my growth may spur purely from not wanting to believe fundamentals really develop a sound artist. Maybe it just seems too... simple, but at the same time mysterious. 

When i did those imagination drawings i just kept erasing and fixing stuff, but i noticed just how much i skew thing and now it bugs the hell out of me! Also, there's a chance i might miss a post tomorrow because I live in the range of the hurricane coming in the southeast US. I'm in Alabama so I might just get some heavy rain, but it's supposed to be grizzly so, we'll see!


RE: Fedodika the Koala - kikindaface - 09-12-2017

hay dude, nice studies ! The upper right page you drew some very good back muscles ! volume is showing well !


RE: Fedodika the Koala - Amit Dutta - 09-12-2017

meditate on this. next project. Captain Biggus Dickus of Phallus Prime's top neighbourhood watch team and his sidekick corporal Richard Cheese, saving Venusian suburbia from the Hideous Hymen gang


RE: Fedodika the Koala - Vicianus - 09-14-2017

I'm liking the line work on those drawings to the far right, fedo! Keep it up :)

Kikinda: Thanks brother! I think that was a michealangelo study following gnass' lead, probably got lucky on that one :>


>What did Amit mean by this?

Vicianus: I picked pink cuz it's a girl color. Thank youz very much, think i got lucky on those, but maybe some more gnass and I can consistently make some goodies <3

SOoo, my power got knocked out since the last time I posted and I couldn't get online but now everythings back up! I'm halfway through Creative Illustration and halfway through the Gnass stuff. I don't think the assignment was to do all of it, but well, I like overkill stuff if i can lol. 

More Gnass stuff from today and yesterday:

Mmkay, started gnass part five and did some skull studies today. Going off the method my mentor advised of tracing over a photo, simplifying the shapes as much as possible, then drawing it from memory after a study next to the photo. Rewatched the Babadook and loved it again so much!

These are the memory drawings----------------------


RE: Fedodika the Koala - Fedodika - 09-16-2017

Aight, saturday, yall should know what saturdays are like for me by now

Here's  afew imagination skulls, admittedly not as cringey as the shit I'd used to do. Little more sophisticated, little more blocky. Still some shit lines in there, but hey, fedo's tryin to figure this stuff out!

More gnass, did a few portraits from him that are studies of masters. ALMOST FUCKING DONE!!

Done with Part 5! just one more, which is half as long thankfully, whew

So, I'm feeling if i can get my proportions to be more consistent, It'll tie things together nicely; I suppose that'd just take better paying attention and being more mindful of measuring.

Aight, done with Gnass! on the 21st got another meetup so, will be really interested to see where i should go next. Maybe more into heads and that sort of thing since I'd want to catch up that part of my abilites to the figure work. I could say a lotta good things about it, but it's hard to quantify. Definitely recommend his NMA stuff, insanely helpful


RE: Fedodika the Koala - kikindaface - 09-21-2017

love the consistency of your studies ! You're kicking my butt to do more anatomy studies ! keep them up, you can see some improvments, can't you ?
