Vin's Sketchbook

[Aragah]

ya man.
more life painting please!

[LtPlissken]

Very intensive naked females. I like em all.
Try to do greyscale landscapes and environments.
Watch for contrast and values.

[Ricardo Robles]

Very nice pencils man, proportions are getting much better. Keep doing good and thanks for stop by my book!

[TFsean]

Hey man nice stuff, figures are definitely better, overall is much better the main issue is that your torsos seem too big, or the legs too small whichever way you want to see it but it feels like the issue is the torso to me dno why. The construction lines are great and the colour in your studies are nice, just watch those torsos

[wasabi89]

Aragah: Ok, I'll try to! Lets see how fast i can go with this

Ltplissken: Thank you sir, but i need moar timee D:

RR: No prob man, your stuff rocks! Thanks for dropping by

TFSean: Hey man, thanks for stopping by! I'll try to remember that. I dunno why i block those torsos so much. Anyway, no excuses lets do work

just dropping some stuff here. Slacking a lot, even with a daily job, its hard to find energy and motivation to do personal work at night when im feeling like tired and shitty. Moar updates are coming
see ya!

[Aragah]

yay man
about time!

[Ainuwolf]

Você não tem ideia do quanto eu ri dos sapos!

[LtPlissken]

Yes, you are slacking, now it is time to
wake up and to update, Yeeees, uuuuup-ddaaaateeee.
The geek frog is an ok idea.

[wasabi89]

Aragah: I know that i must had say it for like forever but lets keep it upp man hahaha

Ainuwolf:Hahaha glad u like it buddy

LtPlissken: Yay mate! time for some update! wil try not to disappoint this time!

It was about time! Some sketches rolling this week. Had done some studies yesterday but totally forgot to upload those. I said to myself a lot of times that i will get my ass on track but i aways loose focus on the long run. Time to change that! Hope that this time i get some different results ") seeeya!

[Aragah]

noice!
my only critique is that i want MOAR!!!!

oh, and maybe do full figures, outlining the muscles

[Ainuwolf]

where are you? D:

[wasabi89]

just dumping a sketch of joker done in lunch time

[wasabi89]

Another lunch sketch. this time a little bit longer one (1.5 hours) maybe would do a selfportrait later. (need to get back to practice)

[wasabi89]

This is a value study after Ilya Repin (My favorite artist) Damn hard to even getting a little closer of the actual painting.

[Aragah]

get back in to the biz bro. we miss ya

[wasabi89]

Hey Hey!

Aragah: I will try to buddy! feeling pumped these days! lets gooooo

A wip that i started working yesterday


The SP. Really tricky to catch the actual light


Cast drawing

[r zanchetin]

Yeah man, really improved on those last studies!

[p sage]

The cast drawing shows you have some understanding of the technical skills of doing lines and rendering.

You should also analyze how the cast was designed. In other words, how the big shapes relate to the small shapes... what those shapes are, etc. This would inform your other work (working out how to make those other pics). Making a faithful copy won't teach you as much as analysis will.

Nice work!

[wasabi89]

r zanchetin: Thanks man!

p sage: Thank you for point out that. I'm feeling that my knowledge about the basics need to be more stronger. I Will try remember that in the future.

- Just another study of Ilya. see ya

[Aragah]

what rafa said is true.
really improving with those last studies.

moar moar moar!

[wasabi89]

Kambei Shimada: Thanks brah, time for some digi this time hehe

Pedroo: Thanks mann! I wish i had studies to hide haha.

Sooo, i couldn't sleep this night. I don't know what happened. My body was exhausted but my mind was still engaged with thoughts and other shits. I tried to draw and actually crossed the night thinking about my ideal of life as an artist. I realized how much i suck at drawing but because of my own mistakes. Was remembering too of the post of Hannes back some time ago, when he talked about finding our weaknesses and to tackle them. I realized that sometimes i just draw heads! oO Thats freaking annoying. My anatomy its totally out of practice and i need to work my ass of if im wanting to be an awesome artist in the future. (Or im gonna be flipping burguers for the rest of the days --') So, actually got up this morning and will write on a piece of paper what are my goals, and where do i want to be. This is gonna be my schedule and its not exciting. I know about it, but i really really want to improve. Just writing out cause this works as a journal to me. Sorry if u got bored

[Psychobuddy]

Hey man great updates ^_^

You're totally improving, no crits from me. Keep it up!

[Aragah]

you go man! youve got all my support!
just go for it.
ill be cheering for you along side the journey.
just dont forget, "easier said than done"

dont loose sight of your goals. its good to have them right in your face.
not only metaforicamente (always thinking of where you wanna go/be)
but literally too! i used to have a piece of paper wth huge letters saying "Am I there yet?" right in front of my computer.
