gen5 Thanks man! I'm glad you like it

Does anybody know how to put some text between pictures if I upload them as attachments?

Ok, it can sounds like a fools’ day joke, but I want to animate this sketchbook. I need to start practice every day, just stop laze around and take it seriously. Will I manage? We will see…

Some today's gesture drawings

You've got a nice variety of work. I think your marker work is definitely your strongest.

The digital paints are inconsistent in quality (I'm assuming because of how long you worked on them), but there are a few with great textures. In general, they also have nice tonality. Try to bring all of it to the same level!

Also, try doing some really messy gesture drawings. The ones you just posted look like line drawings--which is fine--but you wanna draw gestures in a way that tells the story in as few lines as possible. Maybe give it a go with the fat edge of a prisma?

PeopleEveryday - Hey! thanks for your comment! I guess you're right about my gesture drawings, I tried them to be too neat and clear.. But I took your advice and applied it in today's studies!

This time in photoshop, 3-5min each:

and two with some rendering, 25-30 min each:
