Awesome work!
Just a note with circles in perspective, they never have corners, the curve will always taper around the edge.

Feeling a bit under the weather today, so not much progress today.
I decided to give up on my perspective piece I was working on, I wasn't really feeling it:
Better things for tomorrow! :)
Great start on your SB!
Really in depth studies here and nice sense of perspective.
Keep it up!

Keep it up! Thanks SpectreX :)
I wanted to try getting a 'finished' piece up, so I limited myself to working 2hrs on the piece, here's what I ended up with:
The colours seem quite off to what It looked like in Photoshop, I'm not sure what happened :/

Hi there! I love your perspective stuff and I already see great improvement in your gestures.
Everyone knows that feeling, just keep drawing! That's the only thing that helps, anyway :D

Spent a little more time on rendering, ~1hr total:
Also started on another piece that I'm going to spend a good few hours on to practice:
I'm really quite new to rendering in photoshop (trying to bring it up to a finish quality). My method so far is to block the shapes/tone, see that it's looking alright and then I'm slowly rendering piece by piece (only done the front plates on the armor there).
I'm curious if anyone has any other methods, or ways to improve/speed up the process!

Hey man, gj with your artistic blitzkrieg.
Looking at your pose sketches I feel like you would benefit more from Loomis then looking at real life at this moment. It might a good idea to focus on proportions, I found it translated really quickly to my real life studies.
I find it funny to see that you are totally not having a hard time with perspective. Generally that's something I see artists fix later on, but that wasp you have drawn is quite killer.

Thanks Yarrnick! Yeah you're absolutely right, I definitely need more practice on proportions/anatomy, so I've taken your advice and begun studying Loomis!
I apologise for the bad pictures, I took them with my phone as I currently don't have easy access to a scanner.

Slowing working through Loomis!
I feel much more comfortable on the tablet than with a pen -_-

Hey Mayenla. Loomis is indeed great for figure drawing. Watch out for your horizontal proportions as well as the vertical ones though; your women are looking a little broad shouldered. Keep at it.

Thanks Ignatz! You're exactly right, I discovered that when I did the first front on female and it didn't look quite right, which was why I did it again at the end to try and fix :)
More Loomis Studies, slowly getting through the book, page by page! =)
