Dante X's Image Dump (giggity)

[Dante X]

I'm kind of taking a step back for me and going back to basic studies. I'm having small issues when it comes to figures ( proper eye placement, legs, hands, feet placment on the ground, and twisting torso ) So I'm going to try to do some studies as often as I can until I get it.

Feel free to make comments, crits, adjustents or whatever if you see fit. I love any kind of feedback.

Here is a couple of basic female profiles. Not shooting for beauty .... just basics.

Okay here I bent and went for beauty :) Adriana Lima has amazing eyes. I could draw them forever. Still have some eye issues.

Great stuff. Adriana Lima truly IS amazing. :-)

NIce clean style with the head studies. It'll be good to see you channel your energy it figure drawing the same as the way you put in faces. The only crit I have is that I can see that you were struggling with drawing the back. Keep it light if you are unsure and keep building it. Practice what you struggle with to overcome that first step. Good work, I'd love to see more drawings from you.

[Dante X]

Thanks for the praise and crit guys. Fortunately I got out of my current job where I was having to work 60+ hour weeks. And that was totally KILLING my ability to draw mentally and time wise.

The one thing I am mainly struggling with is a certain depth in my drawings. I think I still am struggling with a few basic fundamentals, but hopefully I will get past that and find my "style".

Anywho I hope to have more posted soon, since I am temporarily unemployed now and itchin' to do some sketchin'.

Blessing and a curse indeed.

[Dante X]

now that I am somewhat unemployed for the time being ... I got to actually do some figure studies. Behold A-Nold and ... a victoria model ... person. Note that I didnt spend a whole lot of time on arnolds face since I was more interested in the understanding of muscles and what not. Funny how his face kinda came out satirical :) YIKES
