Tonight's Studies (final torso & abs)

Heya, here is my final torso study and a study of the abs. I put in some texture to give it a classic feel.. =)
Tomorrow I really want to get cracking on the pelvic region and the legs, and finally the lower arms and hands. I feel I'm a little bit behind actually, as I wanted to begin with my character this week. So.. I'm thinking Tuesday or Wednesday instead.

Please let me know what you think?

Thank you. =)

Tonight's Studies

Some are from life, just around the town, some random drawings really, also starting to practice some continuous line drawing, as well as some female head studies and basic shapes drawing from life.

I'm trying out different ways to draw, gesturing quickly (light drawing), and then using shorter strokes (roughing in) for a more precise line over the top of this gesture, and then going over this again with a final contour line. I love this way of drawing. =)

Character Design Studies

Heya, here are tonight's studies on the figure. I'm thinking about a character design, something along the lines of a good natured character, because the last ones I've made at University were all evil in nature. Apparently it's easier to develop evil characters, so I would like to make something a bit more interesting now.

Please feel free to leave some comment, if you have any thoughts you would like to offer. Thank you. =)

Face Muscles Study

Study for the muscles of the face.. there is no difference between male and female.. afaik.. The coloured sections are the most important, you need to remember these and be able to draw them from your mind. These are then drawn into the box shapes (of the face) to give them structure.

1st - 6th July 2010's Drawings..

Working on form drawing.. need to work on neatening things though.. the head is most important to me at the moment, focusing a lot on it. Look at the mass of something and try thinking of it as a mass, cylinders are easy, and boxes are the easiest to imagine forms.

21 - 26th June - This Week's Studies

Okay, so here are this week's studies. I really need to hammer the construction, form, and proportion.. these are the main things I'm being critiqued on by people, so... time to get out the pencil and the beer and haul some ass!
