John - Haha, interestingly when private clients ask me to draw orcs they're usually very clean cut and more green human looking than I typically like to draw them. I dig the Warcraft/Warhammer looks a lot but I do think as people borrow from them for their own ips, orcs get more and more gentrified as a design and people are afraid to go uglier or deviate from convention. I think Orken is doing a good job of coming up with interesting designs, I really like that yeti looking one.
zorrentos - I haven't been able to get to it in a daily fashion yet but it's still definitely more than I've ever done on a regular basis.
Artloader - I think for the sake of keeping myself from being bored I will likely continue to play in different styles, but maybe settle for trying to land a Hearthstone card and using that style professionally. At least for my current goals.
Yeah I have Hampton's book and think he does a good job of explaining gesture but I think I'm more of a fan of Bridgman's breakdowns. I'll give it another look. I've also been digging into Morpho and Stonehouse Anatomy books event just recreationally.

I got a bit distracted/busy and forgot to post, so here's a few studies and two Dudley from SF3 fan arts from the previous week. First one was too stiff due to a lack of planning so I tackled it again later after thinking about the pose more. Both probably clock in at around 2-3 hours. Some of the anatomy study references come from: https://twitter.com/kato_anatomy
I still have to get my head in the right space to just jump back into some bigger pieces, but I'll make it happen.
**Edit: oh yeah I forgot about the poster I made for a tournament I held this past weekend. Still pretty rushed due to time constraints but worth posting I guess.
