Been a bit lax on posting, but I have been pushing pencil.  If I haven’t mentioned it before, I keep a separate sketchpad for different parts of the body.  I usually aim to do one page in each every day as my warm up. Haven’t been varying the medium as much as I should, mainly due to time constraints.

Let’s start with the upper torso (click to embiggen, of course):

Lower torso (crazy NSFW):

Legs:

More lessons and reviews on the way, so in the meantime, settle down and enjoy some art….

A hand, which I fucking hated as I was doing it (see the colored commentary under it). Now that I look at it, not too bad. Once you look at it close up, the sloppy pencilwork shows… still learning how to render certain colors to grayscale… fingers should be longer to match the model… grumble…

Another foot. Better rendering, but still not as good as the first two I did:

Fun with prismas. The shadows aren’t as deep as I’d like because I learned the lesson that prismas look darker wet than they are when they dry…. still learning just how much they lighten up as they dry. Her forehead’s a little klingon too, too much face real estate in general….

A character concept for a comic project I’m doing for grins:

And then, fun with photoshop colors…

Keep the pencil moving people….
