Husky's Sketch doodles

[HuskyAsian]

Your drawings are all very alive. I'd say just keep at it. I see no reason why you can't be an illustrator.

comments means lots to me :>, so thanks! I think i may favor towards being a character designer than anything else, but I hope I'll be able to grasp everything overall.

[rinnikirun]

Oh man, your style is so lovely. Lines so fluid! Subscribed!

Have a good one

[Samszym]

wow, that's a ton of drawings. You're definitely working hard enough, keep this up and you'll definitely improve fast. Ever think about going into animation?
I'd suggest you practice some backgrounds and work on placing figures in perspective, your characters look really appealing but sometimes they look off spatially

Great start, I can't wait to see more! And I dig the adventure time fanart.

[Aresa]

thanks! it means a lot to get feed back on drawings, it's nice to see some suggestions users gives ^^. I've seen some of your recent work, very lovely characters! also, might you recommend any brands of markers? I don't have a lot of experiences with markers :c

You're welcome and thank you! As for markers, I currently use "Tombow Dual Brush Pens". I like them because they don't bleed through to the next page and you can get watercolor washes if you dipped them in water. They're a bit streaky, though. Other popular brands are Prismacolor and Copics. A warning, Prismacolor markers tend to bleed, A LOT. I have not tried the Copics as they're too expensive for me, but I heard great things about them. The only brands I truly have experience in are Tombow and Prismacolor. Since you're new to markers, if you want to try them out, I would go for a small set of 6 or get a few colors separately. Markers can get pretty expensive, so I haven't kept up with them as much as I used too. I'm sure someone out there knows more about markers than me, haha. There are more brands than the one's I mentioned, so research around if you're interested! I hope this helped and good luck!

-rinnikirun thanks! much appreciated!

-vertical I've considered it! animating looks very fun and rewarding. a lot of my favorite artists are animators, and their sketch books are phenomenal! I'm still giving thoughts about what I should major in when i get to college, so i still have a year left to decide. Thanks for the criticism as well! I'm planning to work through my entire summer to refine my skills, if you have any recommendations on resources(books, guides, etc) that would be great!. Thanks again!

-Aresa I'll research what I can before i'll buy, thanks for the recommendations!

Great sketches, keep pushing. You'll be amazing one day especially being that good at your age =D.

[HuskyAsian]

I'll have the rest of the sketch book tomorrow C:

Really love this SB! It's really awesome to see how you can go from very simple cartoonish style to realistic. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for taking the time to look at my sketch book! From the beginning, I tended to draw in one style,till I started doing more life drawings. I want to try to get my foundation first before I start stylizing before anying, though, it's not bad to experiment :>

[HuskyAsian]

I'm going to be posting some old/new digital work here on the thread

unsatisfactory grayscale portrait of friends

something before finals.

[Samszym]

if you have any recommendations on resources(books, guides, etc) that would be great!

Looks like you have Loomis, that should be all you need for a summer of study. There's a couple great blogs you might want to read through, Temple of the Seven Golden Camels is filled with tips and advice froom a Disney storyboard artist and Indistinguishable From Magic is written by a guy who draws an amazing webcomic called Dresden Codak and there are lots of really nice posts on design in the earlier pages.
Also if you want to go into animation you should get Richard William's "Animator's Survival Kit" and read Preston Blair's book
Inspiring stuff, I should do my own page of faces

thanks! i actually do have those books in my collection, however, I have only skimmed through them. As for the blogs, those are something new! I haven't had much time to look for artist blogs because, well... i don't know how to find them. I have a hard time discovering artists i like, or KNOWING famous ones. ;c; . thanks again for sharing the information!

[HuskyAsian]

some color today

[HuskyAsian]

some more old work before I head out to school.

[HuskyAsian]

last of the sketch book pages

That's the end of this sketch book! I'll will be diving into more muscle/anatomy studies with various books, most likely consisting of bridgman's and loomis' books.

[HuskyAsian]

I've started with some Bridgman studies. I'm following someone's saying to "copy every single picture till you're able to figure out how Bridgman draws, why he puts his lines this way" etc. It is proven challenging already, but I'm getting small epiphanies already from bridgmans cover page!

[HuskyAsian]

Hands have proven to be my weak spot so far...

[Samszym]

Normally I would think that's horrible advice and you should apply as well as observing since almost everyone who just copies Bridgeman's lines does so without thinking about the structure, but you seem to have avoided that and made a good attempt to figure it out, so well done! I'd suggest you definitely apply what you're learning with imagination drawings though, and keep in mind Bridgeman was a notorious drunk and his books are full of mistakes.

Thanks! That's something new about Bridgman I've never heard of... very interesting. Also, I try to do as many studies as I can with a drawing, the arms studies that I did actually help me understand more of where the muscles were. Glad that I'm going in a right direction with my studies!
