I’ve done the Yusuke Murata study, but it wasn’t successful

My studies from Naoki Urasawa. This was my first ever master study didn't know you could learn so much just by studying their works.Will keep doing them going forward. Any feedback and critique is much appreciated. P.S.: Please ignore my proportions and notes.

Frazetta

Another line master study before I move on to shapes. This time I studied a drawing from Peter Han. I did a pencil sketch underneath so the proportions wouldn't be too bad. My lines still switch a bit between being really confident and not so confident haha, but there has definitely been some progress. Left pic is from Peter Han, Right one is from me :)

My study from Peter Han

i studied from artists David Malan, Lane Brown, Heinrich Kley, Iain Mccaig, Moebius. The first 4 master studies are from when I first attempted this assignment a couple months ago but I’m adding them now since I never got around to taking a picture and sharing. I took about a month for the new studies I did. It took the most time figuring out what artists I wanted to study and what specific element did I like from that particular artist. I worked on the drawings all at the same time switching drawings every couple hours or when I felt not as engaged. That’s why I wrote the same date on all the images since I worked on them all concurrently. As always I was in my head and asking myself questions about what I liked and why about specific elements in each artist I chose. I’m glad I did this. I was able to find elements I liked about each drawing and I do feel I captured the essence of the artist at least to my degree of satisfaction. The paper was terrible quality just beige slightly textured printer paper hence the many erase marks. Going through every drawing I got to put myself in the perspective of the artist and what they were feeling, and psychoanalyze their mind through each stroke of the drawing copying them it was like I could feel what the essence of them was. When we see a picture of our favorite artist or the artists I chose to study you get a sense of individuality of their essence the energy through their drawings. It each screams their soul signature. Im just speaking out loud unwinding my feelings and thoughts after doing this assignment. It felt like I wasn’t progressing from how long it took in this assignment but I’m embracing the slow and steady pace. The things that matter are worth taking my time on.

Hello everyone! This is my first post here, though not my first project! :) I haven't been able to dedicate much time to the course until recently, but now that I'm fully diving in, I'd like to be an active part of this community. This is my "Line Master Study". I chose to replicate some sketches by Toyagogo, the instructor of the Lineweight course on this site. I really love his creativity and drawing style, and I had a lot of fun working on this! :D

Been trying to get back in the swing of things of drawing, I decided to do some panels of Tite Kubo. Definitely wanted to do more but it definitely helped me learn some line quality. Will probably do it some elaborate ones in the future.

Redid this assignment after watching the demo videos, this time studying from Kamome Shirahama's artwork. I evidently still have a long way to go, but this feels like a valuable way to learn. :') For the first one, I wanted to focus on the lines of the cloak and hat, so I didn't try to recreate the line quality so much in the character's face or hair. I found this assignment quite daunting, so I tried to really limit myself to small areas to make it feel less overwhelming. When I have time I'd like to go back and finish the rest of the cloak, and do some more items from the second image. Any feedback is very much welcome!

Two artists I tried to replicate for this assignment. Rembrandt Trying to follow his lines, I could feel the incredible flow and energy behind them. Pulled fast, with force, almost like a trance. Glen Keane From a drawing Stan shared in a previous lesson, I loved it so much I had to try. Wrong proportions, but I focused on the lines: quick but deliberate, with some pencil-side shading added in.

Man, I hate to even post this, but I feel like I need to. This was an *attempted* study of Jason Fabok, but I feel like I couldn't get the basic drawing close enough to even think about the line work. I did notice that he tends to use a lot of sharp angles as opposed to smoother curves, and he uses things like crosshatching to add a lot of character to his work, but I spent so long trying to get the basic head proportions right that I couldn't focus on much else, and I just gave up trying to make it better because it was so discouraging. I think I'm going to spend a lot of time on the Shapes section of the course, and maybe I'll come back and try something like this again after I get a little more comfortable. I know my line work is still super rough, but I feel like I can't bring myself to really work on it until the drawings start to look even remotely like what I want them to. Does anybody else have any general advice? Do you all think that sounds like a solid plan?

Master study of a frog by Eliza Ivanova with a 4B pencil. This was challenging. I feel as though I still struggle with maintaining a steady hand. Feedback welcome.

Master Study of a bunny from Preston Blair's animation book (1st ed.). The second image shows the progress from rough layout to final. I'm excited to move on to the next chapter, but I plan to review this chapter's demos and critiques first (to see what I've missed and want to retry beforehand).

Okay this is something i approached with alot of excitement and even though i struggled i still had fun and im happy i at least understand my weakness abit better regarding how much i need to work on more loose curves and get a better understanding of hatching. Ill probably give this another ago down the line.

The original artist of the last drawing is Jin_Jing93 on Instagram. :D
