What's in Premium?

For this exercise, we’re moving up to five-minute poses. This extra time lets us go larger and add more complexity to the face and muscles. I’ll show you how to define mid-tones and shadows to create a more finished look. I focus on specific interactions, like hands gripping a helmet, and use silhouettes to block things in quickly.

I also cover how to prioritize the most interesting parts of the pose first. You’ll see how to capture expressions and specific details like foreshortened fingers early on to fix anatomy issues before shading. The goal is to capture the character’s emotion and get a solid, detailed drawing that feels complete.
