It's great to see you doing so many studies! I'd say that the values are a little all over the place at the moment - try breaking what you're seeing down into simpler, more abstract shapes first. Our brains tend to "autocorrect" value differences so you might think that certain areas are darker or lighter than they actually are if you're just comparing them to other areas of the image. Perhaps do a bunch of black and white studies, as well - eliminate the confusion of color.

I hope that helps!

Originally a female face study but I decide to quickly draw the rest of the picture. More face studies to come.

Wish I had more time to spend on digital stuff, but at least I've been doing a lot of stuff in my sketchbook.

Looking great! For curiosity's sake, where are you getting the refs for these from? Any place in particular or just around the 'net?

Keep at it!

On the bright side, probably my best self portrait. On the down side, it still doesn't catch my person!

hey Chris,
i like what you're doing, i think movie stills are a good way to go for a while, i have friends who try to do a small one daily. the one thing i'd suggest is perhaps more construction on the faces. be aware of construction / perspective lines on the face, throw a measurement here and there and i think you'll get better and better proportion control.
keep it up dagger!

@Sickbrush Thanks man, love the advice. And I agree, construction is an area I could really use some improvement in. I'm pushing it, just a time and effort thing as always. So thanks man!


A quick female study for today.
