I don't see any credit at all.

@TheMightyCelt - Wait.. That isn't ur line art? And also, I'm mighty disappointed you went to the adult art route.. :c

GESTURES! :D
After doing a lot of continuous single stroke line gestures, I've come back to the sketchy/scribbly way of doing gestures.
And honestly, it's something I'm having fun doing for some reason and makes my poses really something I like coming out. At least, most of them.

After looking at some of the artwork on NG relised that I needed to go back to basic with the female figure. Here are a few sketches using poses from QuickPoses.com

I recommend looking through the structure of the human stuff as was posted earlier. He explains it in great detail and in a very comprehensive manner.

INTERNET SUCKS! Videos with really low views won't buffer. Ugh..
I'll watch all of it when I get the chance as it seems extremely gud.

I'm bad at drawing heads again...
After 5 attempts, finally got it right. I'll colour it tomorrow.

Bloop.

That's actually pretty impressive. You managed to make a relatively accurate depiction of your reference with your work. I can't really fault anything except the blending, but i don't think that even matters since this is a gestural drawing. Good job! Keep making more.

itd be wayy too long to amass all the life drawing i did yesterday but here's the most complete model drawing I did with some studies.

Thank you po. xD
I'm actually gonna go to art college in EARIST this year. I'm gunna work my hardest!

Another attempt to try and understand arms.. I just don't know.. ugh..
Also, youtube is still won't buffer those videos. ugh

@123mine123 Your arms are looking good based off of the reference (and nicely structure); if you want to be more confident on drawing arms, try free handing a couple through memory then back to reference then back to no reference.

@Havegum bookmarked me that linked to those videos :P

@DizzyVix The one with the ball and the bottom left one is my favorite.

@LuisEC love them girls you drew from the last page.

Kinda slip my mind to sketch then scan on the last weekend, so here at this point I was practicing eyes but was struggling a bit until I watch Sycra's plane of the human face video. Afterward a got more confident on it and then try out drawing human faces on sketchdaily set on a 2 min timer.

Afterward i tried drawing faces in 5 mins then to 30sec.

Then back to 2min then 5min

@ZaneZansorrow - Ugh, I'm just guessing what muscles are there. T^T Nice heads btw.

Whoop. moar still life. I got moar lazy with this.

this is mentally straining. I think I'm getting an idea. Fore-arm, still confused.

Something a lil' different. Head planes.. study..

I wanna challenge myself to do colours.
I got lazy at the end.. :c

Try the Lightning bolt or Coil techniques:

feeeet from the doodle stream today. Toe positioning still gets me. Perspective weakness again.

Hey, long time no see!

This started off as a value study trying not to over contrast the face... then turned into another hair study >.< been ages since I've done anything digital! I hope everyone is well! :)

Recently I've been going for accuracy in the little things, so I drew a quick dude and then worked on hands for a while. The check marks are the ones I'm okay with and the x's I know I can improve on, and pointers?

@123mine123 That horse decorative study look solid (If you don't add the gritty stuff since it looks more brand new compare to the reference). Understanding the skeleton of the forearm and imagining how the meat wraps around it can help. I keep forgetting what those heads plane thingy called. Try filling the canvas with the darkest color available in the reference and work up the light colors from there.

@LuisEC You should definitely try circling the ones you mess up on, look for a possible reference for those and redo them when you have the time.

@Kalicia I think you forgot to attach the picture

@CherryzBomber Try finding a pdf file online called Burne Hogarth - Drawing Dynamic Hands. It explain the skeleton of the hand, veins, direction, structure, simplifying, and so forth.

@ZaneZansorrow - ARMS ARE HARD! D: soijgfebfnaenfaiekf
Also thanks Zaney. I did the darker to light thingy on this still life study thing.

I took a textured bristle brush and it feels so much easier for some reason. c:

Looks good, nice to know you're playing with textured brushes!
As a tip with textured brushes, it helps to highlight details in the textures to make it less obvious it's a repeating pattern (less additions look better, though, so don't go overboard!)

Also keep an eye on the shape of your objects, since that's more important to the overall pic. What sticks out to me is the jarring difference between the viewing angle of the base and neck of the vase.

@TurkeyOnAStick - kay, will TOAS. I should really take my time more and flip the canvas. xD

-------

5 minutes each.

@ProdanDimitrow - Nice. Try to do some with more finished line art or colored?

Still life with colour! Used the eyedropper a few times, but I can eye out or kinda close to the colors most of the time when guessing it. C:
