Random Studies – Animal Shapes

Long time since I made studies on animal anatomy (probably two or more years)

What I tried practicing here were two goals principally:

  • Anatomy. Get a sense of common organic lines and shapes. This includes spine curves,  bone landmarks, places were fur usually is visible, etc.
  • Stylization. Finding interesting shapes and volumes that can be stylized, to either push them further or reduce to their minimal shapes.

Line–art Common Mistakes #01

I'm trying to improve my own line–art on some recent drawings and I think is a good opportunity to post tips I've learned over the years or common mistakes I see people make often in this aspect. This will be a series of sheets about line–art mistakes and tips.

Any doubt or feedback you have don't hesitate on commenting and I'll try to answer on future posts.

Also this will be considered last week Behind the Scenes post and there will be another one for this week.

Common Eye Archetypes – Art Journal

There's much that could be said a lot about eyes, they are usually one of the most important aspects of a character drawing in my personal opinion and the most I enjoy to draw. But I will start some eyes posts and small tips with a general overview of the most usual shapes I tend to make.

Since I'm heavy on manga influences I use common established visual cues from this style. In this case a way to convey quickly a character personality can be done via their upper eyeliner shape (downwa...

July folder delayed

Hello! Just some heads up for those waiting this month folder. Between hurricane Hanna affectations and some (minor) health issues my intended schedule for last week and part of this has been affected v_v. Given this I decided to delay July rewards folder some days... sorry for this, but I want to keep the usual quality on the bonus folders and other drawings rather than hurry them up.

This painting took me a lot of time and there where some technical questions about it from patrons, so I think this one deserves an art journal.

Ori x Fidget (Male versions) – Guest Artist

Done by guest artist, as a Patreon exclusive. This drawing is not by me but was sent by another friend who I'll keep anonymous too. Looks like he got inspired on some of my previous art (specially Fidget's) to make this pic and we thought you might like it to see it as result!
