Meanwhile... (Part 2)

Let's jump into the past for a moment and take a look at some of the stuff that I managed to get done after I began to neglect my web presence.

The sketch exchange over on Polykarbonbbs continued, though with some delays that were pretty much all my fault. The other participants were Professor Az and jeco, and we were concentrating on portraits from reference.
Here are my efforts for the rest of that unfortunately short-lived exchange (without the reference images because I can't be bothered to find them).

The third image was of a toddler and was chosen by jeco.

The fourth image was of Eva Mendes and was chosen by Professor Az.

The fifth image was of Jeff Bridges and was chosen by myself.

The sixth image was of Kelsey Grammer as X-Men's Beast and was chosen by jeco.

I managed to put in some major delays between posting these images. From getting the Eva Mendes reference image up until posting my finished piece, 9 months passed. Jeff Bridges only took me 3 hours, which surprised me. And then they had to wait 8 month before they got my effort at Beast.
Professor Az posted the next reference after I finally posted Beast, but I think I can take full responsibility for the entire thread dying at that point before anyone even attempted the latest reference.

Meanwhile...

As well as this self appointed comic project I've also got a few other things I'm currently involved in. Ranking highly in my to do list are some sketch exchanges I've been neglecting. Some for such a long time that my partners must think I've given up completely.

Here are two images from a sketch exchange over on Polykarbonbbs with Professor Az and jeco. I should let them know I'm not dead since that's an active sketch exchange at the moment.

This particular exchange focuses on working from reference and we've mostly been sticking to portraiture for now.

The first image is Cindy Crawford as chosen by Professor Az.

The second image is Sarah Chalke as chosen by myself.

The next image is of a toddler and was chosen by jeco to mix things up so we don't just end up painting pretty ladies.

My other exchanges that I plan on working on over the next few days include a sketch of a girl on a bench for an exchange with erq which I will probably call a day after finally responding almost a year late, and some Pokémon fan art that I've been planning on doing for a while now that I'll use for my exchange with rayvon87 for him to respond to.

Wish me luck.

Uni - Drawing 08 - Fashion pt.1

Two images of mannequins from shop windows. I thoroughly enjoyed this drawing project. I'm aware that the proportions are a little off but I think I did really well for 30 minute drawings that were meant to have emphasis on decorative and function details of the garments.
