Lesson 4: Applying Construction to Insects and Arachnids
5:38 PM, Tuesday March 16th 2021
Hello again,
this lesson was wery demanding but satisfying at the same time. I tried to keep to the rules/recommendations: not breaking the silhouette, additive construction, confident lines. In the beginning (during demos) I thought fainter lay-in could be used (and useful), but I found out it is not actually considered koscher so later I avoided doing it. I consider all the demos as 1 drawing and so I added 9 of my own.
I spent most of the time on preparatory work (research, figuring out construction) and I did not spend much time on the detail (I hope it is OK). The whole lesson took a long time especially since I also tried to keep the 50/50 rule.
The beetles (number 3 and 7) I just could not figure out - they still seem flat to me. Any tips how to improve them are very much welcomed.
Thank you very much for the critique
PS: Sorry for the doodles in the demo pictures, they are distracting...
