Buscema Artist studies

Trying to draw a bit looser, been drawing a bit too tight as of late.

INK STUDY #15 BRUSH

 I want to practice more Brush inking, and I keep forgetting that I shouldn't draw on textured paper..the ink really doesn't flow well, and then you can't get nice lines without running out of ink. SO note to self, practice on BRISTOL board!

This is the same image btw, I just blew up the contract on the above to make it look white.

INK STUDY #14 Buscema

Drew this on the crappy paper and filled blacks with a sharpie. 

HEADS challenge : COMPLETE

I finished the 50 pages of heads studies! Although, at the moment I am really enjoying it, so I may continue beyond the challenge. Especially going back to the basics always pays off. 

From memory the "how to draw the marvel way" head shapes, and then studies of the next pass.

HEAD STUDIES

 Back to basics, drawing the Buscema heads from "How to draw the marvel way". 1 time copying, 1 time drawing from memory and repeat. Also did a couple of head drawings from the Tarzan movie.

 

 

50 Pages HANDS - COMPLETE

 So I filled 50 pages of hand studies, those are A4 pages, so I usually did 2 pages in my A5 sketchbook for every page. Am I better at drawing hands? Maybe..who knows. Definitely not worse :P

First are some 30 second timed poses:

then untimed drawings of my own hand:
