Lesson 4: Applying Construction to Insects and Arachnids
9:20 AM, Wednesday August 4th 2021
I have attached the reference images in the post.
This exercise was quite fun but I felt that I ran into a lot of problems when drawing the legs. Namely:
-
Whats the best way to add lineweight/shading to an insect's long thin legs? I've just been adding line weight to one side of the leg because its the easiest thing that seems to work, but I don't know if that flattens the form or not.
-
What's the best way to draw the little sausages that form the legs? Should I draw the whole mini sausage in one stroke, or draw two half circles then connect them, or two circles and just connect both circles?
Thanks for checking my work. Any critique is appreciated.
