Another 2 Portaits

I am still working on developing portraits, here are probably two best of them from this week:

First one:


and second:


To be honest I am quite happy with the second one, although it still does not present likeness very well.

Tower of Ice and Light

Here is a quick watercolour concept sketch of a snowy landscape with tower and some ruins...

Thumbnails and palette experiments:



and the outcome :

Life drawing 15/03/12

Few drawings from this week. Comparing them with my output from last life drawing is a bit painful for my, as they seem to be worst. I need to get back to drawing:
1minute gesture:


Pose 1 (10 min) :



Pose 2 (20 min) :



Pose 3 (30 min)

Heads Sketches

I devoted majority of last week to develop my architectural projects, but I found a bit of time to get on with some sketches- I decided to focus on faces. To be honest I draw quite a lot of them majoriy quite small, but I would like to upload here one quick one and one longer:

This was a 15 minutes sketch from reference using www.lovecastle.org


And this took about 40 minutes- I quite like it, although the similarity is not there yet.


Lips are probably the most difficult facial feature for me probably and this is another thing I need to develope.

Dragon Helmet

Here is a quick concept thumbnail I made on one of the lectures....

Nothing great, but I quite like the helmet, hence I decided to develop it a bit,
And create this (originally A3) when I was waiting for one of the architectural models to render.

It probably took me about 25 minutes with few breaks to check how the rendering is going

Another Few sketches

Here are some of the drawings I made this week. Half of them from imagination, last two drawn on life drawing session.
I really like the simplicity of the first one and although it is probably my first drawing in this style I decided to post it on my development screen. Originally the image was framed by a decorativepattern, but since it was not very accurate I croped it
The rest is quite standard and probably do not require any further description.

Tolkien-inspired White Tower Sketch:

As usually, faces are not very good...
