Some fun stuff from today. Finally beat the block on the portrait though still some fixes to do, face is looking a bit flat, then rendering to go. Not sure which version I prefer.

Stuff from today. So little time, so much to do. Self portrait and life drawing/painting.

Starting my painting/rendering theme for this month. Some studies from life, couple from photos, and more work on the ongoing illustrations, trying to find my problem areas so I can work on them but everything is hard tbh

Today was a very slow day, so tired. D: trying to learn about chiaroscuro from Rembrandt, did a study then something from imagination

Be careful when you study dark paintings from photo reference. The dark areas may look black, but in reality theres a huge range of very subtle blues and browns that are very hard to capture in photography

@Beardley I will watch out for that, thanks!

Swamped with uni work and deadlines, normal service will resume soon.

Some life painting today, so much fun! A painting of my bro for his birthday, and some anatomy from Vilppu and reference. Trying out Anthony Jones’ method of combining 30 second and 5 minute anatomy studies, it’s difficult but feels like it’s helping.

Huh, apparently post didn't go through. 30 second and 5 minute gestures, some Vilppu and portrait. Comp is bothering me now, dark side is too dark. Such is life.

@rafa zanchetin Thanks a lot man, trying to keep up the work! Loving your sketchbook too, so motivating : D

Internet's down at my house, so here's some stuff from the past few days: anatomy from vilppu, anatomy from imagination, studies and a finished (?) portrait. At least as finished as I can make it, I think if I stare at it any longer I will scrap it and start over.

Awesome stuff man! Looks like your lines are becoming a bit more efficient; just keep pushing to make lines as efficient as possible (that's something I struggle with sometimes). Looking forward to more :D

@Jeremygordon89 Thanks so much! I'm really trying to tackle my line efficiency and glad it's coming through. : )

Had to take a week off in order to not fail my degree, ha, but I'm back now, though my internet is very slow. So I might not post daily just because it takes /so/ long to upload images. Changing up my workflow a bit, trying to slow down and make sure I really am studying what I'm doing, so there might be a drop in output. But here's some stuff from today.

Internet was out last night so here's some stuff from yesterday. Had a busy day so not much! Rembrandt study was super hard, will have to try it again. GIF gestures are from Avatar, pre-studies for a commission, I don't know anything about the show so wanted to get some idea of the movement even though it's super anatomically incorrect.

@AngeliquevdMee Thank you : D

Long break, technical problems broke me away from the computer and internet and had to go home over christmas. I filled a sketchbook but won't post it here, rather post new stuff. So here's some life drawing from this week and some doodles.

Grand figure studies there! Only thing I would say is that the head of the figure in the 7th image might be a little bit large, but I could be wrong.
