Post 100!

One hundred days of posts, over 100 pieces worked on studies and other wise. Not as many as I'd have liked to have at this point, but a solid number none the less! Thank you all for being part of this magical time.

Got your nose!

Sketches at work..

Everything here is from imagination/ memory with the exception of the initial Indian Dude in the first image. Still a lot of kinks to work out. LETS GO DAGGERS! 

Started the day with these, some flaws but overall not /horrible/

Male Figures.

Some male figure studies, with muscle mass, a little easier than expected

1 hr created my own light sources, and painted the forms from memory  on the
human figure. :D

Mini Skirts and Mesh

Form and figure study. 1.5hrs

Right away, I can see her head is way to big and not at the right angle, thankfully that wasn't y goal, the shadows are too small on the wall, colors are a little too de-saturated again. She isn't leaning at the correct angle, which is why her hands and legs are wrong, her left leg, is also very twisted. Ugh

went back in... so this what i came up with.

SUPER QUICK color study

Just a 20 minute color study, i know some are too saturated,
 but i wanted the overall tones from the trees and grass

a quick update

Horse Rider WIP

Just a standard WIP. 30 min

Studies and Imaginations

A set of Loomis Studies along with basic applications. :D
