Justyna’s 100 Day Challenge: Figure Drawing

[Anonymous]

Hi, I’ve started my subscription just few days ago. I’m interested most in digital illustration and my main goal is to learn how to design graphics for children’s books 🙂 In the end of this challenge I want to be able to design custom characters for my illustrations, so I made a decision to learn figure drawing by:

• drawing one body part each day for 100 days

#1 Day – My first approach to drawing nose

This is a great start. Once you can think in 3D with more confidence drawing from imagination gets much easier. Can’t wait to see how this challenge unfolds!

I just gave you your badge!

Today I realized I should go back to the basic and start from the head shape. So I started Charles Hu’s course in head drawing fundamentals.

This is my #2 Day drawing 🙂 Looks kind of creepy but I’ve learnt a lot doing this one, for sure

#3 Day – drawing head shape continued

#4 Day came up to be a Sabbath day, so I didn’t work on any new drawing. That means tomorrow I must post 2 drawings to be back on track 🙂

Your Day 3 drawing looks great! Very nicely laid out shadows.

Thanks everyone visiting this topic 🙂 You’re comments are very motivating!
This is #5 Day drawing – 3/4 view and some bit more extreme angle

[Joshua Jacobo]

Your improvement is dramatic! Keep it up!

#6 Day I made an approach to autoportrait 😀 The lines on face are mostly exaggerated, so I accidently found how I will look like when I’ll be over 40, haha. Next day I’m planning to scan and color it in Photoshop, to see how it will look in color

#7 Day drawing is a little offtop, because my portrait in color looks so bad I cannot share it 😀 so there’s my cat wondering what am I doing all day

#8 Day I started figuring out the planes of the head. I did only one excercise, because I found it extremly exhausting, don’t know why. Probably it’s something completely new to me.

#9 Day

I feel I should do more of these simple plane views of the faces. I think I learn more by simplifying objects than doing all of the hard excercises in anatomy. Or maybe it’s too soon for me to learn all this anatomical niuanses yet. So probaly for a couple of next days I’ll be doing just some simple constructional drawings 🙂

#10 and #11 Day

Working on gesture only

[Anonymous]

#12 Day for shapes

I didn’t draw for last 2 day so I don’t know if I’m still in challenge; but sometimes it is too hard to focus on drawing after 8h of work 🙁 I’ll try to make up for it -> if I’m counting well I still miss drawing for day 13 and 14
