Bombur's sketchbook. (Updated!)

**yochanan** · October 20th, 2009, 01:11 PM

Some of the faces in the first maybe look a little flat / unproportionate but that's just my first impression.

You seem to get a LOT done every day, you must be very serious. Keep it up!

**Incinerated** · October 20th, 2009, 01:18 PM

hi do more from reference, and more anatomy.

**Bombur** · October 20th, 2009, 01:52 PM

yochanan I want to be good some day, to become good I got to practice a lot! The faces are horrible. I should have spent way more time on them. Thanks.

Incinerated Will do. Thanks

I'm calling this done for now. I can't get that goddamn face right no matter how I try D: It's a study from one of Sargent's paintings in case you didn't read the last page.

**Bombur** · October 20th, 2009, 03:48 PM

Posemaniacs and a color study

aaand that's it for today.

**Bombur** · October 21st, 2009, 04:48 PM

Tried to do a digital today but it just didn't work out. It's so friggin hard D:

So just some studies for today

**Nemome** · October 21st, 2009, 04:54 PM

Nice!
Go on like that and soon you will see improvement!

I should do this too, but anyway!
Great ^^

Silwynar Thank ye

Some life sketches I forgot to post earlier and a 20 minute fanart thing. I see lots of mistakes now that I'm done with it. Damn, I shouldn't paint at night.

**Bombur** · October 22nd, 2009, 09:46 AM

Todays batch, expect more in a few hours.

**Bombur** · October 22nd, 2009, 01:19 PM

Face study, bout an hour and a half. Need to study eyes more.

**Bombur** · October 22nd, 2009, 03:46 PM

Some studies. Last image is unreffed.

**Incinerated** · October 22nd, 2009, 04:29 PM

Hey man thanks for stopping by, I think you should do a bone and muscle study.
especially the skull and torso could use a bit work. Study each part of the body and simplify the shape.

**Bombur** · October 22nd, 2009, 06:12 PM

Incinerated Thanks for dropping by again.

I did a couple of torsos, I felt like I learned a lot by this page alone. Gonna do more tomorrow and some skulls and hips too

**krel** · October 23rd, 2009, 10:15 AM

What a great start, Bombur! Impressed. Your doing way better than I do, haha.

Where in Sweden? :o

**Bombur** · October 23rd, 2009, 02:17 PM

krel I don't know about doing better than you, definitely not with skulls anyway haha. I live near Ystad.

Did a couple of studies from Bridgman and photos from google. Tried my hand at some basic perspective stuff too

**Bombur** · October 23rd, 2009, 03:30 PM

Some unreffed stuff

**wakoes** · October 23rd, 2009, 03:53 PM

nice one mate

keep going

**ColorExcursion** · October 23rd, 2009, 04:45 PM

Awesome improvement I'm seeing! Keep it up!!

**Bombur** · October 23rd, 2009, 04:58 PM

Thanks fellas.

Some quick digitals I did. I'm getting better at these but looking back at the refs now there are some colors I got completely wrong.

**Bombur** · October 23rd, 2009, 07:14 PM

Some non reffed doodlin'

**007-r0b3r7** · October 24th, 2009, 12:12 AM

keep up those studies! you're on your way

**GweNdZ** · October 24th, 2009, 05:58 AM

nice sketchbook^^

Your studies are coming on very well, I see some improvement there.
Your portraits also look good. I do argee that you need to study eyes more, but you definitely have the proportions right

If you do more speed environments I'm sure you'll get plenty better at it

keep going you're doing well ^w^

and thanks for coming by my Sb

I really appreciate it

**Bombur** · October 24th, 2009, 11:29 AM

007-r0b3r7 Thanks!

GweNdZ Cheers

Some photo studies:

I used the color picker a bit on the last one btw. I tried to avoid it as much as I could though.

**andres333** · October 24th, 2009, 11:33 AM

Great! the only thing you need is practice to achieve a more fluid line

**Bombur** · October 24th, 2009, 08:25 PM

andres333 I try to keep line quality in mind when I'm drawing with pencil. Thanks for commenting.

Some pencil stuff:

**Peetaer** · October 24th, 2009, 09:20 PM

All I gotta say is, given where you're at as an artist right now, is to simply keep going. In the early stages its all about getting into a habit of drawing everyday. Keep rockin!

**Incinerated** · October 24th, 2009, 09:20 PM

That last batch is very good, there is still some skewing going on in your work. Nice porn studies

**Incinerated** · October 24th, 2009, 09:20 PM

Edit: double post

**SamC** · October 25th, 2009, 07:41 AM

You'll probably get more crits if you save up all your drawings of the day and upload them as one post. It's hard to keep up otherwise. keep it up

**Bombur** · October 25th, 2009, 03:45 PM

Peetaer Cheers, I'll keep going alright.

Incinerated Haha, thanks ;D

SamC Imma do that from now on. Thanks.

FFFF WHY MUST DAYS BE SO SHORT WANNA DRAW MORE
