Wooo nice update james!

I'm loving the hands

! (especially the middle ones). Great studies, ditto on seeing this daily

.

**guitarjames** · March 18th, 2007, 04:07 PM

Fishspawn-thanks , i will look at some loomis.
rayk-thanks alot.
i will try and get some more frequent updates.
Some cats and a sp (dont look like me that much),also a man from my head.

**Fishspawn** · March 18th, 2007, 04:25 PM

Faces looking tons better! Watch the placement of the eyes, they look a little far apart on both of those. Also try to avoid the outlining of the whole image if you can, leave it light in areas where the light hits or blend it into the background in dark areas. And don't be afraid to push those darks. Good job on the cats as well. Looking forward to more updates

**guitarjames** · March 21st, 2007, 05:54 PM

fishspawn-thanks, yeh that was a bad msitake.

random quick stuff 3 sp just trying to get it looking a bit more like me,flat guitar and the guys out of proportion.

**paberu** · March 22nd, 2007, 06:00 PM

Ohh sps!

Awsome stuff james, the last cat is looking good too. Keep up the updates

**Fishspawn** · March 22nd, 2007, 11:33 PM

Nice looking SPs. I think the guy may look out of proportions because he has no arms *wink* Heh, i'm just messing around, looking forward to your next update!

**sweetoblivion314** · March 23rd, 2007, 06:18 AM

hey man,
your faces are looking really good.
the weird armed guy is flat look though. And his proportions are kind of off.

keep at it

**guitarjames** · March 26th, 2007, 09:09 AM

rayk-thanks
fishspawn-thanks,haha
sweetoblivion-thanks,yeh that pic didnt turn out to good.

just messing around with biro and brushpen.
EDit :will be away for a week but will have big update when im back.

**Fishspawn** · March 26th, 2007, 08:23 PM

Ok, i like the crosshatching on this recent stuff, but i'd rather see finished drawings. I know you've been spending a lot longer on stuff, but i think it would be a better use of your time to draw people with hands and feet, measure out their proportions a little (with ref if needed) instead of worrying about value - until after you've got whole drawings! Of course you don't have to listen to any of this, just think it would propel you along faster. Keep up the hard work

**guitarjames** · April 11th, 2007, 01:10 PM

Im back from skiing, didnt draw much there but i got loads of sp's and anatomy stuffs,think i need to look at lips more, i will do some more full figure studys , some loomis and master studies to.Going to start drawing alot more again.
fishspawn-thanks , i will listen to your advice

When scaning my scanner died so i still have some to show.

**Blue Severin** · April 11th, 2007, 06:40 PM

Huge improvement on the sp's. As far as your rendering, everything's lookin a bit flat. Make sure you're paying attention to planes. The planes that the light hit should be much lighter than the shadowed planes, you're kinda going all midtone. the quick ones have much better value structures than the ones you spend time on.

**Fishspawn** · April 11th, 2007, 08:59 PM

Good to see you back, stuff is looking awesome

Absolutely love the mutated guy (2nd to last) great job on his profile and making him freaky. Looking forward to your next update.

**guitarjames** · April 17th, 2007, 03:25 PM

blue-Thanls, new there was somthing but couldnt find it , thanks for the pointer.
fishspawn-thanks,..
new stuffs,

**guitarjames** · April 20th, 2007, 04:15 PM

Stuffs ,A2 2 hour Rembrant studie,likness is not great ,learnt a bit about charcol also other silyness and anatomy.

**Fishspawn** · April 21st, 2007, 01:02 PM

That portrait rocks man, great job. I do think you should avoid using white on the dark side, just to make the image pop out more, but overall its got great form and anatomy. Body studies are looking better too. Keep up the hard work!

**guitarjames** · April 25th, 2007, 04:42 PM

fishspawn-thanks,i will.
Lame update , have been doing exams and stuff so..yes a lame excuse to

**guitarjames** · April 29th, 2007, 03:39 PM

batch of stuff, guna start doing more anatomy.

**Fishspawn** · April 29th, 2007, 05:12 PM

Like those eyes and the guy with sharp teeth

Anatomy is looking squished, watch those proportions.

**Konstruktion** · April 29th, 2007, 06:22 PM

Ah yeah Loomis is great. I prefer Burne Hogarth though! About your selfportrait, where did you buy that hat with a star on it?

**guitarjames** · May 8th, 2007, 03:00 PM

thanks guys
ahh long time no update.....well heres a couple of pages...

**Blue Severin** · May 8th, 2007, 03:39 PM

The top leg studies are my favorite. Good to see you're back in action and learning a ton.

**Fishspawn** · May 8th, 2007, 09:41 PM

Definitely improvement in your proportions, keep up the good work!

**guitarjames** · May 14th, 2007, 03:39 PM

thanks guys
gah , more stuffs

**Fishspawn** · September 3rd, 2007, 06:58 PM

**jdeegz** · September 16th, 2007, 02:38 PM

holy crap man. i just went from beginning and skipped a little to the end, you have made insane improvments, your "mind's eye" has really developed, i wish i discovered this site when i was you age!
