You’re definitely right Bryan on it looking forced.  Its a bit thinner than it should be but since it wasn’t off reference I didn’t see how off it was till the today.  I’ll try to get my figures to fit the page before I get to far along.

Great studies Gordon!  They read very well

[AJ]

Day 8:  I changed the arm positions so it wouldn’t go off the page and added the apple

[AJ]

Day 7:  Proportions are more right.  I’m going to leave faces blank to focus all time on figure, form, and gestures

Can putting simple dark lines on areas being hit by light make the image pop out more or do I need to tone in a background every time?

Hi!

I’m interested in joining a study group and I’m currently doing the 100 days challenge for figure drawing, so this is perfect!  I haven’t had anyone to really bounce art theories off of so let me know!

Thanks,

AJ

This goes well with my 100 day challenge ! Thanks for the update 😄

Day 6.  Another that went over an hr.  I was trying out a different method and was having to revise a lot.  The hands turned optical illusion-y when I had to move the body higher and left the hands as is.  Im going to do some hand and feet studies because I still make them way too small and vague

[AJ]

Thank you for the suggestion Christopher!

I definitely will throw in a few gesture studies before each of these.  I’ve been going into these dry without warm up and doing a few quick gestures before hand cant hurt!

[AJ]

This is a great challenge! Love the progress so far!

Day 5.

[AJ]

Day 4.  This went a bit longer than 1hr

[AJ]

I’ve decided to try and keep these to exactly an one hour so I can get an idea of what I need to focus on and how long it should take exactly.  I feel like I’m going too fast but I still enjoy the end result.  I’d like to get the proportions more perfect but I’ll get there in time.

These are great! The blending in and out of the smokey shadows are so well done

[AJ]

Wow these are fantastic!  Beautiful work 🙂

[AJ]

I like the value by numbers idea at the bottom there!  I’ll have to try that sometime 🙂
