    I very much appreciate the insight, and noted on not imposing additional elements, I'll be sure not to moving forward. Thank you!

    I really appreciate all the details. I think the mass wrapping lacking complexity was something I was missing.

    I suppose I would think geometrically for the feet and muzzle for example, but forget to do the same for the muscle masses due to their more organic nature, which often lead to my arbitrary collision of each form, as I was more concerned with making sure the puzzle had all it's pieces fit, so to speak. Maybe I was fearful of making that sharp change in trajectory too, but regardless I think you hit the nail on the head in regards to what I need to work on.

    Thank you very much Andpie! I really appreciate the details here. If I have any further questions regarding texture I'll be sure to circle back.

    Wow I really appreciate the detailed write-up here. Basically all of the questions I was asking myself were answered through this, thank you! I'll tackle these in my warm-ups for sure.

    Thank you very much for the detailed critique! I'll keep working on those items in my warm-ups for sure.

    I really appreciate the insight here, and that makes sense. I noticed I was doing so especially with boxes where the planes were different sizes, like my rectangular boxes, where estimating the vanishing point so far off the page resulted in immediately diverging lines due to me trying to make them so parallel.

    Hi Rob!

    Thank you very much for the insight, I'll keep these in mind and continuing to practice them as I move forward!

    Oh wow first on the new platform, that's a huge honor! Thank you very much for the feedback, I'll go through the updated lesson 2; shading is certainly something that I'd like to work on.

    Again much appreciated for all your hard work, it's been a long time since I've felt so good about creating art.

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
