Figure Drawing: Week 22

HEY GUYS I’M LATE TO THIS CLASSToday was hourly comic day so I was not only late, but I had to sit for a while to draw my hourly comics! What a pain because this model is GORGEOUS ghhfhfhdhd really good poses!!Here’s the five minute poses. I missed out on the 1s and 2s so I’m pretty shakey from not warming up, doesn’t help I had to rush here and was feeling stressed by hourly comic day ;_; MY WHOLE SCHEDULE IS OUT OF WACK.Pokémon go didn’t help either THERE WERE MYSTIC GYM WEATHER BOO...

Figure Drawing: Week 21

HEY GUYS IT’S TIME FOR MORE NAKED PEOPLEI’m hoping I don’t fight with the charcoal as much this time around, I TRIED TO SHARPEN ONE AND EVERYTHING. Maybe I should suck it up and use the charcoal pencils I have rather than use the sticks. I mean they’re there to be used!So let’s start with the 1s!Man does sharpening the charcoal really make a difference. I was drawing with the charcoal at a slight angle so it looked dull but I could also draw super pointy if I wanted to. Drawing on the ...

Figure Drawing: Week 20

Hey guys!! We’re back!I sure am glad to be back because it’s actually been three weeks since the last session! Souppy’s mother visiting made coming to these sessions kinda challenging and so I’ve only found an opportunity now, when she’s left to go back to Australia!I miss her already but I’ve also missed these drawing classes ;__; LET’S SEE HOW RUSTY I AMHere are the 1s!This model moves around so much, she’s so great!!The 2s. I felt like I was doing pretty well, really confident...

Figure Drawing: Week 19

Hey!!! We’re back!!Souppy’s mother was visiting at the time and I still was being consistent with attending these classes! Aren’t I such a good student? Anyway, let’s begin!Got another really nice model, who talked about her mother (A famous sculpter who lived till 102!! I couldn’t catch the name :() having her at 40.The model proceeded to have child at 17, and the child had a daughter short of 16. She’s 64 with a 34 year old granddaughter! Way to switch it up!! Anyway, here are the ...

Expressions Goldmine #2: After You

Been a while since the last one of these!!Anyway, after going through the thumbs in the last post, here are some cute faces I liked from After You:I tried to be SO LOYAL to these sketches in the final product, they came out SO GOOD TO ME. It’s always frustrating when that happens because inking can really make or break a sketch, or you might realise while you’re inking that the sketch actually doesn’t make that much sense! And your heart is brokena panel that gave me hellMan did I really w...

Figure Drawing: Week 18

WHY AM I GETTING BLESSED WITH SO MANY WOMEN TO DRAW LATELY. They’ve been so varied as well so this has been AWESOME. I musta done a lot of good deeds.Here are the 1s! Again, trying to fit them into one page, making for some weird overlaps here and there :-[ I don’t want to limit myself too much though, I don’t want to demotivate myself into drawing very little when I could just draw a whole body in a new page.I also wanted to try sketching with the paper facing portrait! I’ve been doing ...

Figure Drawing: Week 17

Another week, another model! Let’s begin!I was bold enough to see if I could cram the ten-minute sketches onto a page! Because I am a huge cheapskate :-[ Also I dunno, I think it looks cool to see bodies all over the page rather than a ton of negative space. It also sorta pushes me to focus on parts of the body as well, there was even enough space to draw one of the 2-minute poses!Here are the 2s!The 5s! Her face was so striking and sharp that I wanted to use any opportunity to quickly sketch ...

Figure Drawing: Week 16

We’re back! and man am i excited to draw a womanThis model was so great!! She’d be serious when modelling, but during the breaks she was talkative and bouncy and sweet. She actually tried to talk to me at one point and I completely spaghetti’d :-[ BUT MORE ON THAT LATER.Here are the 1s!The 2s!I have a huge habit with the 5s where the first sketch is so totally incomplete because I underestimate the time allotted. That’s why the first sketch looks so wispy. I tried to measure things, and ...

Figure Drawing: Week 15

SEBASTIAN IS BACK. I was so excited to see him again, he’s always such a pleasant nice person to see. He’s very friendly! And so.. full.. of muscles…...LET’S BEGIN.Trying to squish the 1-minute sketches into a page now, really wanting to focus on body parts rather than haphazardly drawing the entire figure. If I can draw the whole figure I take that chance, but sometimes a limb will just look too interesting and I end up focusing on that, so that’s what happened here!The 2s! I wasn’t...

Thumbnail Dump: After You

So! After You! There’s so much to say about it!.. honestly that’s a lie. There isn’t much to say about it at all. It was a pretty cut-and-dry chapter that didn’t involve Souppy and I arguing about pacing or scenes happening or anything. Maybe some dialogue changes here and there, but it’s pretty much identical to the thumbnails. So there’s not many weird interesting things to show you! Other than some funny sketches, I guess!See? The most changes I really did was altering an angle he...

Figure Drawing: Week 14

We’re back! With a male model, who was really cool!! He was lean and had awesome hair. The models so far have been pretty white, so it’s interesting when anything changes :-[Here are the 1s. THAT TORSO. So good.The 2s begin here after a final 1-minute sketch is drawn on the top-left! I love how his leaning pose turned out in the second drawing on the top-left.I’ve been trying to consistently shade when doing the 5-minute sketches now. There’s not really enough time with the 1s and 2s, bu...

Figure Drawing: Week 13

I was late to this class by about 10-15 minutes because I got caught up doing some raids in Pokemon Go :-[ AND IT WAS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE.I thought “Oh, it’s not going to be a big deal being a little late. How notable could the model be?"ONE OF THE MODELS WAS PREGNANT. Super pregnant. In about a week she was meant to be due? So that meant that her modeling was split in half with another guy, because of course it would be difficult to have her do complicated poses. But man was ...

Figure Drawing: Week 12

We’re back!! AND IT’S A LADY. YEAHHHH.I notice I find myself depressed and frustrated when I’m drawing men, but there’s something so swoopy and natural about drawing curves :-[ I mean, that clearly shows that I should be drawing more men since they’re what I struggle with, BUT I’M HAPPY TO GET A DIFFERENT CHOICE THIS TIME AROUND. So let’s start with the 1s!The 2-minute poses started appearing here, I really loved how varied she was. Her hair was pretty cool as well!5-minute poses, ...

Figure Drawing: Week 11

Here we go!Here are the 1-minute sketches. Look at that goofy ass in the bottom-leftYou can see that the 2-minute poses started on this page so I numbered them, ALL FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE (And mine). I like the first 2-minute pose, with the line going down his belly.I’m starting to get more comfortable with just.. not drawing the entire body. I used to feel really conscious about floating torsos, which made me try to draw quicker, but that means I can’t really practice on things I really have ...

Figure Drawing: Week 10

SEBASTIAN IS BACK AGAIN AND I’M READY TO DIETried to be more flowy with these 1-minute sketches. Loved the angle of bottom-right :-[ He stood on a platform.The 2s! I was able to do a little bit of shading on the first body :-[ But not that much, it’s a pretty limited amount of time!The 5s!The 10s! I like how cool it looks to have the head scratched out, but that was absolutely not fancy pro-strats artistic intention :-[ Sebastian actually regretted this pose about five minutes into it becaus...

Figure Drawing: Week 9

Hello! We’re back!!I’ve still been going to figure drawing classes every week, but the queue ran out so I’ve re-queued it again! I paid for 50 sessions (That I haven’t completed yet) so there’s still so much more to go~~~So let’s begin! We got Sebastian again, who is a model I’ve fangirled about in previous sessions he’s featured in hahaha. HIS ENERGY IS JUST CONTAGIOUS. Even if he’s a fright to draw ;__;People in the class love to draw him because he’s just perfect when it c...

Figure Drawing: Week 8

THIS IS THE LAST SESSION I WAS ABLE TO DRAW ON MY SKETCHBOOK. WE HAVE REACHED A COOL MILESTONE. This session was on Thursday, and I normally do sessions on Tuesdays. My therapist came back from a month-long vacation so I have to go out on Thursdays again, so I thought.. maybe I should do life drawing on Tuesdays AND Thursdays as well? Here’s the result of the first Thursday!Ignore the guy on the left, he was from the previous session. THAT’S HOW MUCH I WAS RUNNING OUT OF PAPER, I had to jump...

Figure Drawing: Week 7

So instead of dying, I decided to press further, New week, new model. Tried to apply methods I learned from binging charcoal information online in this session, decided against watercolour. It’s too messy and I’m scared of dropping it everywhere ;__;The 1s!The 2s! God the third drawing is such a gremlin lmaoI loved that sitting pose, but I messed up his legs :(LOOK AT THAT LONG SHITTY ARM LMFAO GODXGKDFHG you doofusI spent ages trying to get the proportions in before shading instead of doing...

Thumbnail Dump: Unspoken Rule

Back again with more thumbnails! This time, Unspoken Rule.Translating what you have in your head into paper is often challenging. I always imagine scenes more like a movie rather than as a comic, so getting the beginning of Unspoken Rule to play properly as a comic took a few tries. The first panel labelled “NO” shows Mike walking past the house and then hesitating, but that woulda required me to draw a plain-looking house with an ant-sized Mike. I don’t think that described enough of his ...

Figure Drawing: Week 6

Man I’m losing track with how many of these I’m doing, BUT HERE’S THE NEXT WEEK.It’s funny how these updates are like.. seven weeks behind to where I’d be now, so we’re looking back at the past.This session was the model’s first time!! And she was really great!! She did a bunch of poses and was quite dynamic :OThe 1s!Here come the 2s!I really liked her pose in the far rightFives!I went through a bit of a mental breakdown here. I HATED how this turned out, I got it ALL wrong!! I was...
