152 : gesture, study and imagination!

Alrighty, I'm super busy but I will try to make sure I do these studies daily nomatter what! I did some 30 second poses from posemaniacs, then I did some studies from characterdesigns.com (without timer), and afterwards I did a few poses from the imagination without ref. Really have to do that more often. Need more knowledge, need to get better aaarrrgggghhhh!!

149: Freestyle gestures

Today I tried to cartoonify my posemaniac sketches, just try to find some character and draw up something loosely based on the sketchbook pose.

148: gestures

No tonal today, instead I did untimed poses from posemaniacs and some drawings from that manga book with clothfolds. It's sunday and I reserved today for some personal creative work, and Boardwalk empire tonight :P

147: posemaniacs

Today I tried out some new stuff. I drew some poses from posemaniac and in photoshop on a new layer I drew a character based on that pose. Trying to translate these sketches to some actual drawings. I hope this will make those drawings stick more in my head.

146 : Folds studies

Did some studies of folds in clothing.

20 minute page from a book I bought about 9 years ago :P "How to draw Manga: Dressing your character in Casual Wear". It's a pretty useless book, but good for reference studies.



I then googled a random fashion pic and did a quick study (20 mins):



145: gestures + drapery

When is this flu going to go away..for some reason it's much harder to focus when you're feverish :P Anyway, I did manage to do some gestures..I tried something different then usual, instead of going for really quick strokes I did much slower lines...I set the timer to 60 seconds.

And finally did a quickstudy of a sculpture in the Louvre (photo ref). Somebody on conceptart.org gave me the advice to use opaque brushes instead of brushes with transparency. I think in the long run it will help to get things down quicker.

144: Tonal Study

Went to bed early yesterday in the hope I'd be feeling better today, but nada! Haha, I feel even worse today! Regardless I did my warm up drawings and I'll move on to some storyboards now.



143: Tone study

Feeling really under the weather..drowsy and sleepy :P Had a busy day sorting out stuff in town, but luckily still at least did my daily study. Going to get up early to make up for today's poor workload :(

60 second poses from posemaniacs.com
