Drawing in inverse proportion to post rate

 

Post to let people know I'm alive lol, I've actually been drawing a lot lately, more than before, will be posting more again. Also back on the workout grind, feels good.

tall horns

 

I think I've gotten a lot better at form recently, I would never be able to draw forms this symmetrical freehand a year ago. My process turned roughly into finding the center line, putting it on a 2d plane, mirroring said plane, then drawing ellipses adhering to the mirrored center line. The right horn kinda sucks because I drew it with chicken scratches for some reason but old habits come back sometimes I guess.

Uninstalling valorant

I peaked diamond 3 the first season of the game and do not like it any more than I did then, counter strike is truly superior. When CS2 comes out I will be playing that 100%.

Also this is a sketch of what I thought viper looked like with her mask off, although I didn't really use her mask off for reference. I know I can boot it up and look at it in game but not going through that effort.

And yes she's my main.

What my last post should've been

Man, looking at my last post, I definitely do not have good judgement when I'm tired LOL. I thought I should remove it, but decided that I'll just have to wear it. My lines are a lot cleaner lately and I want to get to doing clean line art and simple coloring and see where it goes.

Not exactly polish

Not exactly polish, but different styles are also something I wanted to try out. Trying to find a particular effect or likeless that can't be described specifically but can be felt visually. Sorry, I know that's a bit too esoteric, maybe you'll see what I mean by tomorrow.

Although I have been working on the polish thing, and my lines have gotten more deliberate, small steps it is.

how??

The goal I have set out currently is clean line art, and polish in general. I have come to the conclusion that if I want to make things worth looking at then I will need a final presentation, and clean lines and shapes will probably get me there. I don't know how to go about learning that though so we're stuck with this image.

Need some goals

I've been waking up in the morning being slow on what to do to improve. Gonna set some time aside to figure out what I'm interested in at the moment and how to go about getting better. Wrap that up in a schedule and slave away, that's the plan.

CC

Well, you definitely know who it is now if you watched the show, not very many anime girls with lime green hair.

Also, what do you think her name stands for, closed captions? Kidding, of course... maybe.

Hold this

 Yes, this is a sketch of a certain character from a certain show. True fans may be able to tell who this is if  I did my job right, and you definitely will by tomorrow when you see the colored version.

watch your step

 

 

  Diagram 104 of perspective, took about an hour and a half, just some formal measuring for stairs and rotating them on a perfect square. The length from the Station Point (SP) to the center of the cone is 6" away on paper, that means that if you put the middle of your eyesight 6 inches away from the center of the middle dot, it will look exactly how it looks in reality, very cool.

Also, if we can say on average that each diagram takes an hour and a half to complete, then we sit at 156 hours of pure pencil to paper drawing perspective since the beginning, and I think it's been more than that.
