I feel terrible that I started to "feel" Gil so late, but I am glad it's happening.

Working on a rotation sheet for Scamp, starting with the nude base

(side note: that line below Scamp's belly button isnt anything nsfw, its apart of his abdomen muscle)

Just felt like it. He popped into my brain. Or should I say "crash landed" into it.

Guess I need a new document for the sketches xD my PC is not amused by their size

Pencil portrait sketch

The last few years all the art I did was really lazy art because I was exhausted all the time from overworking. So I wasn’t really very proud of anything I was making and I was always rushing it. And then having to drop off projects.
Now I’m working a job that allows me a more reasonable work life balance I’ve been able to invest more time into my art. I’m feeling better about even my sketches. ️
Although I need to fix that @$&# hand doing the peace sign it’s so bad. Lol calling myself out. I can’t believe at this age I’m still messing up hands. 🤣 ah well.

Kelheor 2023-01-04 16:18:51 UTC #14198

Welcome to the thread and no, it looks really good! Except the peace sign includes the thumb looking inwards, so maybe changing this little detail will ease your mind
I really like her face ^^

jessijokes 2023-01-04 16:28:56 UTC #14199

Okay this is amazing, profiles are so hard, did you hide your structure before exporting the sketch or do you freehand like this? (Either way it’s super impressive!)
And thank you so much for your welcome and feedback! I will definitely fix the peace sign before I take my sketch to the next step ️

Kelheor 2023-01-04 17:12:58 UTC #14200

Thanks so much! I mostly freehand profiles, I really do enjoy drawing them xD
Sometimes I make a simple base like that under, but it's usually when there's a full body included

jessijokes 2023-01-04 18:27:00 UTC #14201

That’s fantastic. Comes with a ton of experience I imagine. ️ I struggle with that lip and chin area lol I think I just need to sit down and draw 500 profiles or something.
Get it out of my system.
Maybe I’ll do that with peace signs too LOL. ️

Lensing 2023-01-04 18:29:13 UTC #14202

I think it looks really good and professional

jessijokes 2023-01-04 18:39:25 UTC #14203

️ Thank you so much. Is your portrait sketch an original character, or based on somebody? I like the structure you’ve built.

Lensing 2023-01-04 18:42:49 UTC #14204

Thank you, I started a new Proko fundamentals course and hasn´t started yet but I tried to draw one
of the assignment portraits. I try to learn to draw with the pencil properly and learn to shade with pencils

jessijokes 2023-01-04 19:03:16 UTC #14205

Hey that’s awesome! That’s motivation, getting a jumpstart before the course even starts? You’re going to nail it once it really gets going. How long is the course?

Lensing 2023-01-04 19:05:48 UTC #14206

I think the course will take 18 months, I skipped a lot of basics when I tried to teach myself
how to draw so I thought a fundamentals course sounds like the right thing to do
