Figure Drawing: Week 25

Added 2018-04-17 13:00:00 +0000 UTC

HEY WE ARE BACK!!!!!

And we have… two models???? At the same time?????

Pretty cool! I’ve never done that before so double-tasking was interesting unless you just wanted to focus on one model. I WANTED TO GO FAST THOUGH and here are the results!!

We did ten 2-minute poses instead of the standard 10 1s and 5 2s. It makes sense because it honestly felt like I was drawing a ton of 1-minute poses in hopes of drawing both models.

The charcoal began to dull by this second set of 2s, I was shocked at how fast it dulled. My charcoal pieces are dwindling into tiny bits ;_;

I sharpened a second willow charcoal for the 5s, but got fed up by how, again, it dulled out super quick, that I grabbed my already-sharpened charcoal pencil (like it’s an actual pencil rather than a stick) and used that for the remaining two poses. I liked how sharp it looked!!!!! So I kept using it!

Used it for these two 10s. I’m liking how smooth it feels honestly, the lines feel more confident and not as shaky? I figured the opposite would happen with sharp charcoal. I wish I coulda shaded these ones, I liked the lineart

The 20! I hate how tiny the head of the model on the floor is :-[ I tried to fix how ginormous the other model’s head looks with little success. It’s definitely better than it was! I was too busy trying to fix how tiny the lying model looked that time ran out and I couldn’t shade ;_; ALAS

The 2s and the 5s!!! I hated the 5 on the far-right, but the bottom-left turned out so wellll. I really like how that turned out, and that was full of comfortable strokes as opposed to the disaster of the far-right 5. Kept running out of time for the 2s ;__;
