In this demo, I will be using the one of the references images I provided during the grayscale painting lesson and demonstrating a different method I use when painting in grayscale.

Surprisingly, I feel like I have improved since last assignment. I took a bit more time on this one and spent more time honing details. I like how the underpainting shows through :))

This was very difficult for me to do. I would love some critique/help.

Not super happy with this one, I will rather move onto another ref lol

Trying with provided ref. Very tough.

I’m still learning to be comfortable with values. Might have overworked this one a bit. I wanted to let the legs fall into shadow but fell into a terrible middle ground that resulted in underbaked feet. Looking forward to more grayscale paintings though. This brown tone process was very fun.

Lovely work

Emphasizing the hips and twisting the forearm is the difficult part for me. I had to cut and free transform.

My complete lack of anatomy knowledge is starting to really embarrass me

Second assignement. I really enjoyed the exercise with a more traditional approach. As advised I tried to stylize and get rid of excessive details. I'm not sure about the light values i chose...

The process with this brush was really difficult, couldn't used it effectively so I am not sure I enjoyed it, for now atleast. Blending was hard, especially with the coloured sketch. But since I was way out my comfort zone, I learned a lot, and even with my lack of anatomy knowledge and wrong decisions (the right arm mainly), I quite like the result. I wanted to blend with a soft brush but thought it was needed to stay with incomfortable brushes.

WIP 1 It is very hard to control these brushes but I'm having a lot of fun blending with them!
Nick Dahlquist
I like John's approach using the under-painting. I started my image the same way and then finished the rendering in color.

Hey, here is my try, I have a hard time finding simple shapes and being thoughtful about brush strokes that I’m putting down, but thinking about it as an assignment really helps to finish the painting even when you’re not confident enough

I need a bit of help mostly with the legs they look airbrushy I don't know why, thanks in advance.

You did a great job with proportions! For the legs, I would suggest doing practice rounds of creating hard edges that end with soft edges. The legs look like they're rendered with soft edges. You can go on a separate later and use the same brush but then erase to make a hard edge.

Here is my assignment. I know it has a lot of mistakes but it is the first time I use a digital software for painting (procreate). I'm gonna do my best to improve! Any feedback would be really appreciated.
