Your lines are good, try seeing the structure of the bones

This was hard to do without reference and from memory!

This is a charcoal/ graphite drawing I did in art school

greetings everyone, heres some recent portraits and drawings ive done.

didn't want to get overwhelmed so grabbed onto a few techniques and simplified it to one character. sorry

Trying to team these up got awkward! Sorry about that

Hi @Scott Flanders and fellow students, here is my current line-up. I updated the characters from the development stage with the exploration for the focal points. After the last feedback video (focal points), I did some more sketches and finally I merged two weaker characters (the leader and the tinker) into a new one. I had way more fun with the farmer and reduced the samurai theme to a point where I think it is acceptable.. Even though I preferred 5 characters in the line-up in terms of odd numbers, I had to admit that the material was not good enough. I scanned them and did some digital corrections. The blocked color in the background helps me to identify the shapes a bit better with the sketches. For the upcoming shapecarving I would like to change some details along the way. Some proportions, some gesture... this is really hard for me with the pencil. I am so used to flipping canvas and doing cmd-Z, especially when it comes to making final decisions. The Pumpkin Brigade is my thrown together mercenary troop, which gets the job done for the right amount of coin. Best wishes from my desk to all, Andre

well, this got awkward

i might recommend indicating the position of the hands, feet and head, even if its a quick gesture
