When you realize the report you just sent to your teacher listed off a porn site as a Reference. This is what happens when a black out removes all the progress on your report and you rush through it half asleep. Here's hoping she doesn't notice it, or i'm going to have a really funny conversation with my instructor about how i used Fakku as a reference for an essay on Roman Architecture.

Dudes in the Skype Group will have a better idea of the situation.

I spy a Powergirl, :o


Also this is for everyone, a really cool video and youtube channel.

Awesome, i'm taking an Art Class also. It looks like we're going to be focusing mostly on still-life though.

It looks a lot like pen, yeah, lol.

Yeah i already have control paint on bookmarks, i'll take a gander at that other site now, Thanks for the info Rin, much appreciated. i was playing around with another digital painting style which involves painting directly from the shading and values, without laying down lineart first. The idea is to draw the form based on values, i fucked it up big time to be honest.

Here's an example of what i'm talking about, done by someone who knows what he's doing. I'm probably describing it horribly.

Shading study on Photoshop, still trying to get used to my Wacom Tablet. Probably not going to refine this any further, i mainly did it as a practice thing.

Used are the best.

Happy birthday to one of the more awesome members of Fakku.

We'll probably tackle that eventually, but what we want to do first is the meat. Figures, Emotions, Perspective and Shading. Something like how gravity effects folds can fall under the category of Shading.

I am now being disappointed, because you are white.

[size=21]Assignment 3 - Basic Figures and Design[/h]
Seeing as the last thing we tackled was Gesture, we'll follow on that same path and move into refining the form some more. This assignment is a Two part again. The first practice will be thumbnailing, this is a technique many professionals use to lay their ideas out before committing to any design. The second part will be Figure studies.

Part 1 - Thumbnails
-Feel free to make costumed characters.
-Make them humanoid, or close to it.
-Draw at least 10, in different poses. Male or female, whichever you want. Feel free to do more.



Part 2 - Figure Drawing
-These will be full body drawings! that means draw them from head to toe.
-Avoid clothing, A lot of Artists will use thick layers of clothes or armor to hide mistakes. We also want to focus this segment on the figure, not folds or clothing textures.
-This isn't anatomy, not yet. We're working on refining figures more, we'll tackle anatomy later on.
-Draw at least 20, in different poses. Male or female, whichever you want. Feel free to do more.

Are you using a pen? your features are slightly off the Line. Even if you're planning on having a very exaggerated style, it's a good idea to draw realistically or from photographs as practice, especially when you're trying to map out facial features. There's some good gesture here too, so good job there!

Real Weebs took the time to get a ladder and dress up their ceilings. Lazy pretend Animu nerds like you should stick to your Highschool Clubs. Leave the real weeb to the professionals. The least you can do is buy a booby mouse pad. And proper Animu sheets to masturbate onto.

Probably never, i'm certain i'll become inactive in due time though. Retreat to Skype banter as most dudes have.

Finished with my imagination pic, total time about 18 hours from the sketch, clean up, detailing.



This is the pic i'm using for the second half of Assignment 2, which is doing a photo drawn picture.

Woo what a neat Map, Shigenori is one of my favorites also. Glad to have you with us :D

Progress thus far on Assignment 2 (Imagination drawing)



FUUUUUUUUUUU--- i'm spending more time then i thought trying to draw Teg's glasses right.

@Fayte87
Nice gestures Fayte, looks like you already have some knowledge on how to construct mannequin figures. I'm certain it'll help in the future, at some point we'll be uploading some information on the proportions of the mannequin figure. Maybe from Loomis.

@Dapper
I like the character you have in your hands, i need to utilize the arms more in gesture drawings. I get paranoid about my shitty hand structure and knowledge of arm movements.


As a note to other participants, it's encouraged to revisit certain Assignments. So just because you complete it doesn't mean you can't go back and do it again. So please feel free to dump as many studies here as you please. I plan on doing the same of course.

Anyone can PM me with suggestions on what the next Assignment shoould be. Please make them general techniques, we're all using fairly different mediums so something like "How to properly use a Wacom Tablet" will exclude certain people.
