I did the best I could, and it was interesting to practice with a few times. I hope the images do show up clearly.

how do you curve your lines so neatly

Honestly, I have no idea. It might just be muscle memory, but I do put my wrist in a comfortable but loose position so that it doesn't wobble too much and then i use my shoulder to guide me through the motion.

how lond have you been on exercise 1

8:55 PM, Thursday March 26th 2020

I was on exercise 1 for about a week, which was a bit too long. Someone had pointed that out in the discord server and I took their advice and decided to post the finished work here and start practicing the ghosted lines. I kinda grinded on the exercise a bit, which was kinda my fault but it's just a habit that's gonna be replaced. Gonna make sure I don't spend too much time again doing the ghosted lines.

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.
