Hey guy

[adamsimons]

C-bro: Thank you.
J-bro: Thank you.

Things didnt go as planed this week but I got a decent amount of drawing done.
I watched the radhowto head demo and got quite a bit out of it and looked through the start of rabogabos thread and got a few good bits from that.
From rad it was about looking at the head as major forms, 3 for a realistic head and 2 for a cartoon head.
Also thinking about the variety of size of the forms(big medium small) which ties into a ron lemon tip from robogabos thread of starting with the shape of the head first to get more character and variety than you would get starting with a manikin.
The other tip was asking the question "How would I draw this with out reference?"
Which is what the new crtlpaint tut is about and what the whole Dynamic sketching course was about.
So... yeah, here's my stuff.

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

Keep it up!

[JamesSimons]

Thinking! Yeah~

[Yemi775]

Beautiful gestures man!

[adamsimons]

C-bro: I will!
J-Bro: yep.
Y-bro: thanks.

This week was a bit patchy, but I feel that as I get more familiar with what's in front of me things will proceed faster.

Here are a couple of sketches one for an armour study project and the other is for the recent secret agent sidekick chow.

This week didnt go as expected, but that is 100% in line with all previous weeks, so whatever.
Here is what I did achieve(not pictured, simple object form studies).

A quick sketch and an attempt to apply a loomis tonal plan.


figure studies, getting closer to being able to make a clear statement of understanding.
