portrait

I have trouble rendering the skin properly I don't really have a process and I spoil a lot of drawing like that

Thumbnail Trouble

I have an idea for a kinda cinematic shot (think of those Chinese artists with that bright aesthetic lighting and flowing atmosphere) of someone checking documents in their castle office. I don’t know how to best frame it. Should the character be bigger? I tried a door closeup as a foreground, a bookshelf + character as the mid and the windows plus sunlight as the background. I’d appreciate help! Thanks!

Learning mannequins

I am struggling with finding the horizon line and not quite sure how to structure my approach on learning how to draw figures. This is my workflow 1. Basic silhouette 2. Draw head, ribcage, and pelvis 3. legs and arms I struggle with drawing boxes and cylinders in perspective and how tilting affects it. I'm trying to draw my figures in 2 point perspective.

Earth elemental

Hello, I am doing a earth elemental drawing and painting challange. And ive been starring at this for a while now. I need help a few ideas and things. Ive beeing solely focused on desing. 1. Does the shape language "triangle" read clearly? 2. How is the flow/silhoutte, can i make it even more clear? 3. Can i push the shapes even more? 4. How can i add crystals - i totally forgot those in my earth elemental. All help is appreaciated. Thank you in advance.

"Head grid" part 2

Made some revisions! Added a sort of plane change to indicate the form a bit better, along with some more minor changes.

Brazil goal celebration

Messy/muddy skin colouring. Can’t seem to control it when I look to ally shadows and highlights. Also I messed up the mouth, the reference had a different expression so have to improvise.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

A cleaned up version of the singer guy drawing from earlier. Added the texture to the microphone. Now... I think that each metal bar is too big an exaggerated, the pros definitely could've gone smaller with the detail, and i feel like they don't wrap around the form well enough, maybe I got caught up in the detail, and maybe the eyes would be too far apart from another angle. And i drew the composition to Lead the eye to the subject, but the space doesn't feel to cluttered, does it? Please let me know!

"Head Grid" Part 3!

Hey guys, i finished part 3! Realized i was kind of treating one angle like an exact copy of the other, so once I stopped doing that, I think i was on the right track. But not without mistakes! If anyone can point out inconsistencies with the structure or broken perspective, please let me know!
