So , I tried taking a break from art for about a week. A nice healthy break...turns out I can't Did some sketching yesterday and today

here we goo...craaaaaaappyyyyneeeeeeessss ( All from imagination except for the hands :P )

[Othrandir]

Too tired to write anything.
Here's today's stuff... blah my anatomy is still crap :\













from my livestream ( I didn't touch the tablet for like a week...MASSIVE DIFFERENCE , it's like I forgot everything :X...is this how it's going to be in the future? )

[MrBrown]

cool to see that your focusing hard on your anatomy keep it upman

[Kherns]

Keep it you have already improved on bodies !

[Othrandir]

MrBrown - Thanks , man! Not focusing hard enough I'm afraid :\

Kherns - Thank you for the encouragement man! I disagree though , my bodies are still super depressing , as they were before. I'm starting to get really frustrated









aaaaaaaaaand today's stuff.I didn't do anything yesterday , so today I was feeling super guilty Today was all about art though , so it's good

here's some pencils - sketches and studies mashed up together









I did some eye studies too ( from photos )










a photo study turned massively bad



a photo study I don't mind , but I was too lazy to finish



a digi sketch / portrait - can you believe THAT's supposed to be a woman?!?! Holy crap it doesn't even look human :X I need to work so much more but I'm slackiiiing



And another digi sketch from imagination. This one, although it's not really correct anatomicly , I still like it more than the previous one Either way...a lot more work is needed everywhere... :\

[Othrandir]

sketches from imagination and studies from life

















super mega terribly wrong awfull sketch


random 10-15 min color studies









shit , I feel like I'm not progressing but getting worse and worse.I gotta work harder , but I feel like shit.Damn.

[Othrandir]

just a bunch of extremely terrible sketches and studies

[kevin-]

nice amount of work! your form looks a little off but you have some nice value. keep at it man!

[Othrandir]

kevin- - Thanks , man! You're right about the form thing. I keep telling myself I gotta think more when I do this stuff , but I never listen. :\ I should try out my own advice for a change




new stuff - totally uninspired crap :\ I think I'm going to post better stuff a bit later on...bleh I gotta push through the crappy stuff and get the mojo going again







super quick from life ( people in my classroom during school) proportions are fucking terrible.You can see how I was sitting by checking out how slanted the figures are haha



and random again




digi stuff - again uninspired , just doodling









apple logo for kicks haha

[Izer]

hey i think you've made some nice progress, your figures are gettin better and better.

[Othrandir]

Izer - Thanks a lot Izer ! My figures still look like shit though...better shit than before , yes!...but still shit



here's today's stuff ... I took yesterday off It was Sunday , which was a sunny day and I felt like rewatching Chuck , Friends , How I met you mother and Leverage The whole day ( and part of the night) I did just that and it felt great. No worries for a day. Oh , boy what a blast! But then again it's Monday and I'm back in school , which ofcourse is thrice the worries...since it's the end of the school year our weeks are JAMMED with exams and it fucking sucks because I already am in the summer break mood and studying french , biology , chemistry , history , math , bulgarian / french literature physics and all the other shits they make us learn is like the furthest thing on my mind right now...damn anywaaay here's some stuff from todays boring classes , bus rides and comfy chair at home

usual hands from life







some sketchbook pages ( I'm starting to get a grain more comfortable with imagination stuff...I have so much more to do to get to the draw-whatever-you-want phase :\ )

still struggling with faces obviously







quick animal sketches for fun :P






a terrible portrait attempt... my digital stuff sucks balls




During summer break I'm gonna get more into digital. Right now with school I don't have any time fore digital , more than 1-2 imagination stuff or studies a day...blah , I'm exhausted :\ any whoo see ya next post

[Othrandir]

so here's some stuffs , some of them are studies of other people's work so don't be alarmed I just wanna learn

first some quick Loomis to kick things off in the morning



and the rest of the sketchy things





this was pretty much the only thing of worth on the page , so I cropped it






and a quick 1 hour mountain sketch to try and get back in to environments...I miss them



I gotta do more stuff maaan , I hate school :X

[Othrandir]

here's today's stuff. Not very impressive , but it was fun

leg studies from imagination mostly , but there are some from reference and other artists poses. I learned a lot just by thinking of the poses , I think I'll do more :P








some faces ( I swear the proportions look waaaay better in the sketchbook )

[Othrandir]

yey , more sketches... really having fun these days :P

so here's some of those usual hands to get the pencil moving I really like doing them sort of as a warm up for sketching.





more legs . Trying to get the action right. I gotta stop doing from mind and actually do some anatomy studies...First thing tomorrow!





sketches , mostly from mind













50 min sketch to put some color in the post :P

[Othrandir]

So today was a fun day...filled with legs Although it might be a boring post ( I'm sorry about that ) I still learned a lot today , so I'm happy. I continue tomorrow with the leggies and so on. I just wanna rant again about school...I just want it to be oveeeer damn I hate those last 20 days of school , when you can basicly smell the salt water in the air , it's freaking hot outside and you're stuck doing tons of exams in a classroom with 24 people in it...and the worst of it all , I have no time to draw!! soon..soon..until then ANATOMY! ( because it's the thing you can study best without the need to be absolutely , laser focused on it ) , when school is over though , I'm gonna hit hard the digital side and I also wanna try traditional painting. It's going to be LEGENDARY!



blah , blah , today's stuff

Hands to warm up ( I know they're terrible , I just do them now so my hand would get used to the pencil in the beginning )




Bridgman studies















Legs from mind



random...



and a random super flat creature for fun ( 1 hour )
