Gah Hand Cramp!

[triggerpigking]

TristanFletcher:lol funny you say that had pains in my non drawing hand that day.

Grr really hate drawing clenched fists some of the most deceivingly hard hands for me to draw.


Gonna start trying make myself some goals every week,
really want some suggestions for these ,thinking of maybe drawing drapery next week or I might spend a week to get better at either charcoal or digital.
doing gestures this week, won't be uploading all of them though, id have 20 pages of 30s gestures.

wow good sketchbook man, and yay for setting yourself weekly goals if you make that a habbit (and make it a bit more Subject-Varied) theres alot of places you can get to by doing that! also try to always have a specific goal in mind when you set out to study something, while yes making the best drawing possible must always be your topn priority there are sometimes you just want to study, line economy or shading the subject isnt of importance the way to practice is, because that is what you will rely on in the future whenever you are in doubt or dont know how to do certaint things keep it up man i want to see it happen!

[triggerpigking]

:Lionheart:Thanks for the advice, The lack of a goal thing is completely true for alot of my drawings I get too caught up in shading and details too early, probbly a major reason for why my construction drawings are so weak at the moment.

Didnt get to do much today due to personal issues did manage to get the gestures done though.

Small dump,
Decided to make drawing anatomy better my goal for the next few weeks,
gonna try and finish that bridgman book and the loomis one,
got so many artbooks but I never get round to finishing them.

[Sushy]

OH GOSH DAT CONSTRUCTION (awesome, I never do that, but I should)
Good sketches man I especially like the last still life. The objects are drawn very well. The console seems to be 100% correct to me. :>

[triggerpigking]

Sushy:thanks!
Happy with how the ps3 controller came out can never get the buttons on them damn things right though too fiddly.

Gonna try that challenge of drawing in pen for a month now, might actually extend it to two months actually but ill see how it goes, still gonna be working in digital as well but im mostly just going to be drawing in pen.

Tried an assignment from ctrl paint the targeted learning vid. assignment was to draw an object from 10 different angles and to draw through the form and focus on proportions, probbly was a bad idea to try this for the first using pens only got 3 done on 1 object and then changed to a different 1 where I got burned out after the 6th one. gonna give it another go tommorow in digital.

[triggerpigking]

W.i.p for an imagination piece im working on.

[triggerpigking]

Just an update on this piece improved the linework curtains and window frame, this'll be more interesting soon just getting the enviorment right before I add anything else.

[triggerpigking]

SLENDAMAN! Think ive done a pretty good job on the hands in this, trying to figure out how to make the body and legs looks better though really not good at clothed figures and drapery gonna work on that soon.

Ah i hate drawing my other hand its a pain to draw like this and you can't measure as well either.

[HarbingerofIllRepute]

Slenderman... *shudders* I have a feeling he's the one they send to collect unpaid student loans.

Keep up the good work broseph! *raises fist in a manly gesture of comradery*

[crackpot]

Really enjoyed looking through your sketchbook and particularly like your still life and portraits. Your line is very individual and has a charm and identity all of its own so hang on to it as you progress. Great stuff!

[triggerpigking]

Habringer:*picks up pencil and clenches fist* Hurrah! and I bring my mighty pencil down upon this paper! *accidently crushes pencil* ;_;.
Crackpot:Thanks man do think my lineworks one of my stronger points will try to keep it as I go.

Had a busy last few days got a cold and then we got a new kitten who's scared shitless of everything and is staying in my room until we can get her calmer.
so this is pretty much all ive done the last few days did a few bridgeystudies as well but I threw them out and am gonna restart tthem wasnt happy with them.


Oh dear god colour my worst fear, get it away get it away! actually think this turned out pretty good like how the hands turned out and the wonky anatomy's not to noticable now. Pretty much done with this now unless I think up anything to improve it.

[triggerpigking]

I'm back!
took a few weeks off posting.
Trying to do 100 hands in a week first page are from photo's on the internet the rest are from life.



Quick Sketch of calvin candie from django unchained, love this movie, probbly will draw Schultz soon.

The Dicemaker
Imagination piece im mostly happy with it moreso the idea then the actual execution.
I couldnt think of anything to put in the lower half and the hand was a major pain, I couldnt find a good pose for ref and couldnt draw the pose from imagination so I had to awkwardly use my own hand.
Happy with the top half although im thinking I could have made some colours darker, oh I also used igor from persona 4 for some refrence for the face.
I might try redoing it some other time.


gah this took forever went through like ten pages triyng to get it right and it still doesnt look all that great

[Mewball]

really digging the hands! Keep up the good work.

[HarbingerofIllRepute]

You're doing great, keep up the good work brother!
It is pretty much the end of the road, afterall.

[triggerpigking]

Thanks for the support guys!

The Jester of Rook island
gotta love Vaas.
This was actually mean to be the second draft before I made a final drawing but I loved how his expression turned out in this so I kept it, only problem is that I was messing around with drawing his red vest to see if it would go or not, since I made this the final piece though it's now regretibly noticable but even so im happy with how it turned out.

Also a figure study I made a week or so back completely forgot about it.

[triggerpigking]

Just more hands.

[ConnyNordlund]

Good job on this big volume of studies! Just don't forget to apply what you've learned
Thanks for visiting.

[triggerpigking]

ConnyNorlund:Will do going to do some hands from imagination tommorow to apply it to.

--------------------------------
Trying to do 100 arms this week, these arent that great quality I had to scavenge from google search for most of the them, gonna put some movies on tommorow for refrence.



Also starting on loomis again trying to get through all these damn artbooks ive got stacked up here, I was going to finish bridgman first but my dog got hold of it so I have to order a new copy :/.


And the last of the hand's missing 100 I didnt get round to doing it got way too tired later on in the day.

[StressCavity]

Hey man, glad to you're so persistent with the studies! I'd just advise to try simplifying some of the forms to see how they work. And of course, apply those studies

[triggerpigking]

StressCavity:Thanks, i'm actually trying to get into a bit of a routine with these 100 drawing's i'll do 2 or 3 smaller studies focusing on simplifying the form and then i'll do a longer one focusing more on the details, also starting to do some of these from memory and imagination alongside the studies So I remember more from them.

Just a dump of arm's from the last two day's and some hands from imagination.
Promise i'll upload some more interesting things later.
