I'm here.
I'm here at Proko so I can eventually focus on 'what' to draw and not on 'how' to draw.

I went to the zoo again this morning to do more sketching. I'll post this one for now, but will do a bigger post later when I get back to my scanner.

Sketchy ginger dudes! This was a fun little puzzle, I kept my starting gestures/blobs pretty close to some poses I was familiar with but I played with the proportions more in the blob phase, and started to explore different ways to exaggerate the shapes and contrast character types. I think I could have kept them a little more abstract, and root-based, but I found this exercise very freeing!

All four of your figures appear to be occupying the same stage, creating a pleasing composition. The gesture/stick figures really move! Thanks for posting.

Creating manikin shapes while retaining dynamic gesture — especially the woman's arched pose on the left. Great job.

I felt this was way too advanced for me with no anatomy knowledge. At least I trained my eye to spot landmarks as a way to measure from but I think I need to study anatomy and then come back to this. I also struggle with the tools as I can't find newsprint paper here and use paper with more tooth. Graphite becomes too faint and charcoal becomes too harsh and scratchy. Oh well, practice, practice...

Hi Siv,
Great looking figures! From my limited knowledge it looks like you found many of the landmarks.
If your paper has too much tooth, try using printer paper. It's smooth and cheap. Plus, it works well with regular pencils.
I'm going to give the anatomy course another go. Maybe I'll see you there.

Design based on the Transformers G1 Warpath toy. I drew this from imagination, so some of the perspective will be off. I did ink it traditionally, but then realised the drawing was too big for my scanner, so I took the photo of the pencils into Clip Studio Paint and re-inked it. I also changed the position of the arm and pistol. I then added an explosion I'd drawn from a previous project, and coloured the whole piece in CSP.

I like how, with each iteration, there are improvements. Very impressive. I'd buy this comic!
