hippo skull!

[vanaga]

Strong improvement is going on! Tradiotional seems to be weaker than your digital drawings, but this last ink skull ir really good.
From digitals I like post #63 and the self portrait. Just keep on pushing your limits.

[David.W]

Hey thanks vanaga! Yeah you're right, I'm always having a hard time putting down confident lines when working traditional.

updaaate

Here's my life drawing stuff from the last few weeks!

[David.W]

Hey guys!

Congratulations, you all won a ticket to kick my ass next time I try to be lazy!
I've been travelling around Australia for the last few months so I didn't do a lot of art. I should have though! So now I am forcing myself to draw/paint every day, and even though the word "forcing" sounds I bit harsh it's actually a lot of fun! Hope it'll stay that way.

But, I didn't do nothing, so here's just a bit of a sketch and study dumb to get me back on track!

[David.W]

Aaand here's today's studie! 30 min

[fuad12]

This collection is very fine.

[David.W]

Thank you!

[Qikalain]

The lives studies are real eye candys. Could you tell me what kind of tool did you used? It looks like Charcoal, but I could be wrong...

[DaevidK]

nice, you're progressing really well, keep it up

[David.W]

Qikalain Thanks man! Yeah you got it right, I used charcoal for the life drawings sometimes. Loved it! It was so much more comfortable for me, and I really like to fill those large shadows really quick, it just has a great flow to me personally! So yeah, thank you

DaevidK Thanks mate, will do!

[Mepainter]

David, your digital art studies are stunning! i love your landscapes work, and portraits.

I see huge potential here, and judging from the way your skills seem to improving.. i bet you'd make a great conceptual artist.

Keep em coming!

[David.W]

Thanks a lot, Mepainter! Here's a new landscape, just for you

This was sort of an experiment. Instead of starting with a blank canvass, I used some distorted photos as a base and for the values like Feng Zhu did in one of his videos, and then painted over it.

[David.W]

Another speedy I feel like I'm learning a lot!

[Fisharto]

Oh that castle one is looking good! Keep it up mate.

[PeteJ]

your paintings look great, but it looks like your linework is not as strong.
keep up with your studies, you are doing great.

[Caleb-Brown]

Great environments, and the life drawings look good too!

[David.W]

Thanks a lot, guys!

[polaritymechanic]

ahh dude! you inspire to do more landscapes... keep rocking!

(btw you aren't already back to germany right?)

[David.W]

Nope, still kickin around in Melbourne town!
Thanks! Go for it

[David.W]

Studyinnnnng. Might continue working on this fella, I like his expression and I learn a lot from painting his face

[MinkoOlena]

WOW! so many cool art here. And I really like yours life drawings, that are great
Keep it up, and of course I'll be waiting for new stuff from you

[David.W]

Thank you man!

I finished the last portrait, reference is "Stranger #57" by Danny St by the way!

[stan-c]

Hi!
This last portrait is great. Forms, lights and final expression - everything works.
One thing: everything is painted but his beard looks like drawn with pen (a lot of short tiny lines).

Anyway - good work!

Cheers,
Stan

[David.W]

Thanks for the comment, Stan! Well a beard is essentially a lot of short tiny lines It seemed like the best way to make it look realistic to me. But I see what you mean!
