Lesson 2: Contour Lines, Texture and Construction
7:59 PM, Sunday March 28th 2021
Hello!
Here is my homework for lesson 2. I thank you very much in advance for your critique.
You'll notice that my textures are terrible, and some pages of textures are not completed (I sent 3 instead of 2 to compensate). I just need to move on to lesson 3 for a change, because I'm sick of textures and I feel I am becoming grind with them. I will continue to practise them for warmups and with the 25 textures challenge. In other words, I am sorry for submitting such poorly drawn textures, I suck at drawing them for the moment.
Also, I had a lot of difficulties with form intersections (I did many more pages of exercise for them than those I'm submitting here). Optimus (furgeq), from Discord, was very kind to help me A LOT with them, big shout out to him, but I still have difficulties. I guess it will make sense with practise and time.
I had a bit of difficulty with drawing nice sausages at first, but they are getting easier. Placing perpendicular ellipses in them is getting easier too. Still, I feel my sausages are a little stiff (lol).
Oh man, I feel overwhelmed with all I got to learn to be somewhat good at drawing in the next few years. Quick question here : I would love to learn to draw characters in the future (maybe cartoon or anime-like). Should I start by learning anatomy or figure drawing? And is it too soon to do it? I would also continue the DAB course at the same time.
Thank you again for your help!
Eric
