Hey everyone, I’ve compiled a stack of fun drawings and studies and wanted to post them, I think ill keep updating this new thread. I’d appreciate any crits or thoughts, since there are likely many things I miss that an outside opinion would be helpful in addressing! I’m looking to build skills for storyboarding so my next focus is going to be on an NMA course: Bill Perkins visual storytelling, I’ve started it and it’s totally awesome, really want to get serious at staying with it. I’ve been trying to implement more shadows and tones since that’s something I need to work on and tend to avoid, so thoughts on that would be great! I’ve just been trying to keep it simple with the lasso fill tool with 2 or 3 values, focusing on the shapes.
For the figure drawings my focus has mostly been on defining and simplifying anatomy, trying to implement more tone and shadows, and of course trying to get as solid of a gesture and construction as I can. I’d appreciate any thoughts thanks.

I love your work! Your figures have a playfulness to them that really lifts my spirits. Also, those shadow shapes in the last 3 slides are very satisfying. I can't wait to see what you do with that storyboarding course, I'd love to see the scenes and compositions you put these characters into. It's clear your grasp of 3D form and gesture is very solid. Nicely done!
Not a critique really, I just enjoyed seeing your work. Thanks for sharing!
