    Hey there. Don't think any part of the beast The Human Body can ever be slain, only tamed somewhat - that's what will keep making it so fascinating to study.

    Ambitious and valuable studies, keep 'em coming.

    Todays study was a continuation of my pencil drawing efter Hughes:

          Thanks for sharing the entire process from block-in to last step.

          Todays digital study for me was to keep painting a Church landscape. Version 0.7:

                Amazing painting, thought it was a photo ref first. Well done

                Todays quick study from a still frame from the 3rd LOTR movie (ca 15 min):

                  Hello! I have been a fan of Crimson Daggers and have been wanting to join for a long time now, watching Dave's and Dan's live streams finally kicked me to join.

                  Here are some perspective studies I did getting geared up to do some form and lighting studies.

                    Welcome to the party

                    Great studies (those hands are amazing!), thanks for sharing your notes. The shadow on the bottom perspective study (the one you're unsure of) may or may not be correct depending on where you put the light source. Repost that one with the light source marked if you want further feedback on that particular one.

                    Here's todays quick study, drawn with a pen after a still frame from the first Star Wars movie:



                    And version 0.7 of a portrait commission painted after foto that I kept working on today:

                      Default Hi!


                      Here's some studies. I was loosely following the swamp elder challenge and it was fun and I had a character but never did a full painting. It was fun and I learned a lot watching others prepare for the challenge. so..thanks! The winners looked great.
