If u say so rubber,i really can't be bothered to argue,i know what i've done and thats all that matters.

back to work.I guess it would look a bit more professional if i did line things up on one page though.but like i said,rough,i'll work more after.

no time!! :gasp:

edit: Espen,how about a more rythmic approach to your drawings? you use allota straight lines,which can make ur pics look a bit too mechanic.

just a suggestion :)

jub,the girls left eye is a tad too far away from her nose,i wud tell you to fix it,but its one of those things that the untrained eye probably wudn't notice,its no biggy.

Lol,oh crap it is really far away,umm,she's a zombie,it's supposed to look off...yeah that's it hehe. :unsure:

Here's my pic for the day too.Those cymbal playing monkeys ALWAYS creeped me out,check scary stories if you want to learn more about these freaky toys that are discontinued now...i hope.

...................................

Gnort: Folds and drapery are a whole new era of learning :lol: nice attempt,but therea still lots of fold studying for you to do,cos rather than folds,he looks more like he can't afford an iron. :P

I recommend the book Dynamic Folds and Drapery by Burne Hogarth for further study.

ESP: Line Rhythm,its just the way u draw,instead of holding ur pencil right near the tip,hold it at the center,and make long strokes and sweeps across the paper,and u'll see what i mean by rhythm.Keep it tidy,remember it only takes a few lines to describe form.

Avoid drawing and repeating over the same line.

I highly recommend sum books from George Bridgman,he explains rhythm very well.


.......

eeeewww i'm starting to sound like a lecturer..*shudders*

thats exactly the same thing,lol, rhythm usaully means curves lol.

.....

however,i will do a paint over also,i also think rhythm is something that lacks in coms work also,people with no life drawing experience seem to spend way too long on construction lines,and no matter how much curves u have the pic can still look stiff.

heres a quick overpaint of what i mean,no need for 10 billions construction lines,only take a few lines to define form,this is something life drawing will teach you.

lol,yeh,but now ur repeating less,and the dynamic ness is already shining through,keep at it and practice.

Any George Bridgman book will get you on your role.

The Andrew Loomis book Collection aswell,figure drawing for all its worth,i had all the those books uploaded,but i removed them shortly after,a good number of members managed to download em though,i'm sure sumone else will be willing to upload them for ya.

but for now u can just head over to www.saveloomis.org i check sum pages out there.

and order sum brigman books from amazon or sumthin.

...........................................

Two Quotes from Nubian today.

" The Sketch is the most important part of producing an image,because of its free-ness and spontaneity. 8 times out of 10 your sketch will probably look better than the cleaned up finished image"

" Art is a form of many contradictions*

thats all,do with them as u will.

He has some kind of disease, that makes his right "yoyo hand" became a little bit fatter than his left one? :(
^^

But you're right Espen. His arm is messed up. Thanx for noticing. I didnt see that to begin with

:bfoot:

I think the only thing I see wrong with that hand Com is the solid line between the index and middle finger. If you erase it, it may seem to flow a bit better because there seems to be a break in the continuity in that hand... Sorry for being nit picky...The rest of it is fabulous....

Well, he doesent have his own little yoyo to play with Bobly, so I dont think thats the reason :o

Here's my daily sketches.They're VERY rough,i have 2 pages front and back,cause i was trying to draw as fast as i could because i was getting alot of ideas.But i'll just post half a page.My quick stuff always looks comic bookish :lol: I enjoy drawing this stuff alot more than realistic,the other's kinda restrictive as far as how creative i can get and this way is alot quicker to draw and i don't lose my ideas.

twisted my man...twisted,hehe i like.

I think that last character bottom left *one with skull showing and no jaw* would make a really great character if u developed him further

same with that zombie chick from earlier.

,i just realised the no jaw guy reminds me the character design from the dad and me games at newgrounds.

Hehehe,the pot-belly rocks Comlock.

Yeah,i've been on a monster/zombie kick lately.You'll probably see more to come.Gonna take a break for a bit from the semi-realistic stuff :) hehe,my realistic stuff is at the level of you guys' doodles,and on top of that it probably takes me twice as long to draw anything.Are there any sites or spots on this site were you guys have any finished works done?
