August 13, 2020 at 4:08 pm #670332August 14, 2020 at 8:23 am #671291Cool. I like how you just used your wall for it. 😋 The patchiness is because of the wall texture? Maybe you could’ve put a couple of extra papers underneath it.
August 14, 2020 at 9:08 am #671329haha yeah, the cheapest easel:)
that’s a good idea, I’ll be sure to remember that
but the paper I’m using here is pretty thick
just didn’t take the time blending around the highlights

August 14, 2020 at 9:34 am #671343since this piece is attached to my wall, I find myself constantly re-working and changing things about it often
looking in the mirror, I’ve used my own right arm as a guide to restructure the models right arm in the drawing (this has helped greatly)
also, if I’m being honest with myself.. I’m a little nervous about drawing in the facial features (i’ll take my time and be sure to break the face down into smaller parts, if needed)

August 21, 2020 at 1:22 pm #681468Hey iamjakeroo,
Congrats on getting to this part of my course! That’s a lot of hours invested! Good job on the figure, but I thought I’d do a draw-over if you’re still thinking of working a little more on it. First of all, the head is too big, but as are the hands and feet (the ones I drew in the video are also actually just a tad too big). The abdomen needs more modeling with the light closer to the top of the Rectus Abdominis. The Rib Cage always extends lower than you think. And then in terms of accents I placed some main darks to show where one can accent to create a good rhythm in the figure. (I showed the line of accents with the green line).
Good luck moving forwards and write any questions you might have, I’ll be checking in.
Best,
Iliya
August 23, 2020 at 3:14 pm #684716Hey Iliya,
I appreciate you taking the time to not only check out my work, but to also share some of your insight. Though I wasn’t able to fully change everything that you suggested, due to the progress I had already made, I took what you said and did my best to apply it to my final rendering of Mark (see above).
I do have a couple of quick questions, if you don’t mind. First, where can I find/buy the chunky charcoal stick you used on this lesson? I’ve only seen it sold in variety-packs. And second, what do you feel is one of the best pieces of advice that you were given about these larger scale drawings? Working from this large scale really resonates with me and I plan to continue on this path, hopefully leading to oil paintings in the future.
Thanks again for your thoughts,
Jake

i enjoyed coming back and working from a much smaller scale, more than I thought I would ..
