Butter sweet onion flavored tomato seed percolated essence
through your majestic presence. Positives vibes run through my
chimes, the back of my spine, I knew and felt it instantly, a new
rose and star is upon a rise. I like em all. I mean all. Your work
is promising, like a new raising contestant, delivered what we
did not expected. I step with much pride and courage into your
majestic flower full kingdom. So glad to be here, to follow your
work and further progression in our nearest pleasant dimension.

your value study looks great.
but your portrait drawings looks off proportion

**Madio** · October 27th, 2012, 07:40 AM

Thank you!

Portraits are really hard, I follow Loomis's "Fun with a Pancil" but he don't explain facial features but only major head forms. So I'm a bit confused about placing eyes, nose, lips correctly in perspective.

**LtPlissken** · October 27th, 2012, 01:20 PM

Painting and drawing folds is not easy, but I can see that you
managed it really good. Maybe a bit lighter values on this last
one would welcome. Either way, good job my friend.

**Madio** · October 28th, 2012, 05:25 AM

Thank you. I will develop this last one more on stomach area and finish with legs. More to come soon.

**Madio** · October 31st, 2012, 06:09 AM
