Handy study!

Hand studies (and a bit of other things also, but try to focus just in the hands). These are from imagination, I've not only posted the "good ones" in this case only to show you the importance of repeating when you fail on some drawing. Salt Stanchfield said that all of us have 10 000 bad drawings to do, so it's better if you let them come out right now! so people, don't be afraid to make mistakes, because you learn a lot with them!

More sergio pablos studies, this time in video :) Sorry about the image quality.

"Eye" see you!

I've been Inspired by Toby Shelton publication "I only have eyes for you" and tried to make some expressions with the eyes. This is only a small part of what I've done, I also tried to use a technique I learned with Griz and Norm tuesday tips on drawing eyes!

Some hat Studies. I think it's good not only to whatch real hats (in photos, and even hat's you might have in front of you) but also to see how other artists draw their clothes and drapery! In this example I have studies from not only photo's but also, Akira Toriyama and Akihiko Yoshida (I love how these two masters draw clothes!)

Here is more "good lines" studies (radhowto blog talks about this), this time from mulan (disney movie) and from some art of Sergio Pablos, he is one of my new references in character design, and good lines!

Good night again, I here are some studies from Glen Keane's art! I like to studie not only models, but also how other artist's represent the model. I think it's a pretty fun way to improve, and it keeps me fired up! Notice that in these studies I'm publishing I rarely put finished pieces, in this studies for instance, I'm more focused on the action and of course on the lines and shapes. This is a hint I got from "radhowto" blog which is an awesome blog to get inspired, and learn new things.

Here are some Gesture drawings I did. This kind of drawing studies I try to do at least 3 times a week! Of course there's not a formula to how many times you should do some kind of work, it all depends on the effort you put in each drawing you do, I've came to understand with the few experience I have, that it's not only how many drawings you do, but, how you do those drawings! what are you thinking at the moment, are you just putting random lines? are you just making copies? I've understood from not long ago that you should understand how to draw, rather than just copy what you see, this way I think you learn quite a lot more!
