Daily Drawing With Timer Challenge
1yr
Gannon Beck
I enjoyed the habit of drawing everyday during the 12 Days of Proko. The timer tool is great and there are lots of professional photos to work from. I took one day off from it and got right back on it. Now the habit is a fixture in my daily routine.
I've been posting the images in the two week challenge thread in the Drawing Fundamentals Course, but since a.) this will be a longer habit than two weeks and b.) not everyone on Proko is enrolled in that course, I'm starting a thread here.
Anyone inclined, feel free to join in. Use the timer and whatever photos you have packs for, or are freely available.
Here are a few two minute sketches from me--mostly from the Viking Volume 2 Pack.
22nd Day of Proko and counting.
today's practice
just following Glenn Vilppu on how to render head, still dont understand the hair part tho
nice value composition in this! I like that the dark value circles from the character head towards down right and spiral to the right tree
501st? These must be stormtroopers in training, then. Nice job showing the planes on the figures. I'm getting Bridgman vibes.
500th Day of Proko and counting.
I'm too busy today to do anything special for it. Maybe that's kind of the point. There isn't any fanfare that comes with showing up--just the steady progress.
About five minute sketches. I may have spent a little more, but not much.
heyy, Congrats on hitting 500!! Just like a sculpture, your skill is getting polished 1 layer stronger each day and it shows
500?!?! No wonder these figures look so effortlessly dynamic and dimensional. Congrats!
Tried a more complete comp for my imagination piece this time. And some 2 minute studies.
Next week I think I want to do some 3 value comps to see what impact that has.
This is awesome, you seem to use minimal brushstrokes and captured the essential shapes. Is this just using hard round brush?
This is very nice. And for a 15-minute study, impressive. If this is digital, are you working with a predetermined range of values or just eyeballing it as you go?

I really like the dynamic posing here!
concur with Jyayasi, it adds another dimension (figuraively too hehe) to your gesture study and I like how you make them into such simple shapes and not overcomplicate it
Nice studies! I am digging this new aesthetic of your gesture studies where you map the shadow shapes.
some gesture studies and untimed eye study. Dont really know how to render eyebrow yet
498th Day of Proko and counting.
Untimed. Not too happy with it, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
Yeah, indeed. We all have bad days. While there seems to be some proportion issues, I really like the uniform pen pressure you have maintained throughout the piece. The shading is smooth and the forms are well defined. I can feel the softness of the hair and differentiate it from the harder creases and folds of her shirt.
