    Elloi tries to learn to draw for real. | Updated Apr 20

    lol @ lame title. Yay~

    Anyway...my last sketchbook I was unhappy with so I decided to start a new one. Damn you Janaschi for giving me the itch to draw!

    x-x at any rate I need to practice more... much more... I'm going to try to make myself do SOMETHING every day.
    Ahead come a bunch of smudgy sketches done by a leftie.
    C&C are always welcome, of course. Help me improve!

    Elloi,
    Good to see your work and I look forward to more. If you commit to daily improvement, and you allow nothing to stop you, the outcome is assured. No try, Skywalker... DO!

    Apparently i can use opencanvas without my computer crashing, so this is what i'll use to sketch from now on, i think.

    anyway, my desk xD ...i love my purple rhino.

    Wanted to try doing a grayscale drawing cause all the kids were doing it, and because i felt bad that I didn't have time to do anything today.

    ...
    actually, i wanted to experiment.
    ...how the hell do you cool guys paint grayscale drawings without them looking shitty?! (such as shown below)

    ...
    some really weird looking muscles that im sure do not exist. it made me realize how much i dont know about CGing, anatomy, and art in general...oh, and i don't know two shits about how to actually hold a gun T-T

    help?

    The life painting a few posts back is really great - how long did it take you to make?

    Hi! Thank you, man.
    It took me around 2 hours or so. I'm super slow.
