Zombie

I’ve been messing with Clip Studio Paint as I’ve been contemplating making the switch. There are things Photoshop does that this program can’t but I really like this.

Studies from Class

So it is now week 10 of the spring semester. Man am I tired and I have felt like the quality of my work has slipped just a bit due to the tiredness. But I'm trying to rally my strength and finish the next 5 weeks as strong as I possibly can. Let's start with my figure drawing class. Here is one study I did for my anatomy class focusing on the back of the figure and the intricacies there.

We also attempted to study and learn about the back of the legs and the calves area.

In my perspective class, I worked on two point perspective again, but looking at a more extreme angle, in this case, a downward one. First I started with the following thumbnails. There was no real requirements on a specific theme or subject so I thumbnailed out whatever ideas popped into my head that I thought would be interesting.

I was trying to make those weird pointy hats many Egyptians are wearing in statues but it was just not working. So in the final image, I changed the head all together to be that of Anubis. This made more sense story wise as Anubis is the god of the dead and I wanted to add that mummy on a table there as well. Like the mummy is being prepared in one of Anubis' temples.

I'm still not 100% satisfied with the image, but I feel better making these changes than I did when I started the image. For how much of a fight the drawing was, I'm happy it turned out acceptable at all. Sometimes you just get one of those drawings that is just really frustrating.

Lastly, here are some clothed figure drawings I did. I took some photos of myself for reference and tried to draw them. I like the first two here while the last two are kind of bad, but I'll share them anyways.

Here are some 5 minute clothed studies:

10 minute clothed studies:

And finally, a 20 minute study:

I'm glad this week is over and that the end of the semester is drawing ever nearer because I'm just tired. I'm doing all of these studies, working full time at my day job (which is a very physically demanding job at times), and doing commissions for clients still. I thin I'm just going to relax today on my day off.

Isometric Drawings

I have started classes back up at the Academy of Art University. So far I’m learning a lot and being challenged in ways I wasn’t challenging myself. One of those was was using ink and markers for isometric drawings.
