Lesson 6 by Caleb

my final drawing

This is what my construction egg looked like before I drew the features. This time I used red for my construction lines and blue for features. These blank eggs are a good reference to have to draw other faces onto later.


This creature appeared the day after a Halloween party featuring a werewolf, Preston's eggman, and Snarf from Thundercats.

If you link to or follow my blog, I'll do the same to yours.

Lesson 6 by Nicolas

Here's what I have for Lesson 6.

(Update: More Drawings)

My Third Attempt

A side-by-side comparison. My first one.

(My latest ones 11/1/08)

All tips and critiques are welcome.

LESSON 6 by WICKS (David Omar)

I'm happier with this lesson. The angle (tilt) is subtle. It's also a front view which is much easier to measure. Sometimes I have trouble following my instincts. In the intial red pencils I made the top of the head longer. In the blue I brought it down, which was wrong. This tells me that my eyes still aren't seeing the proper negative space between the shapes.

I'm happier with my inks. I'm trying to mimic Preston's brush as close as possible. The reproduction of the book kinda makes it look like he doesn't close his ink lines. He's a pro at connecting 2 brush strokes seamlessly . Definitely need to practice some more.

Critiques and tips welcomed and appreciated.

Lesson 6 Patrick

This one was pretty fun. I seemed to grasp it pretty quickly, this is my 3rd attempt. I could still work on the perspective a bit.

Lesson 6 by Jeremy

Hey everybody. Just wanted to post my latest Lesson 6. Still a little off on the smile on this one. Plus the outside oval is a little wonky. It's amazing what fails to jump out at you until you scan it into the computer (Wicks commented on that and I definitely agree). In any case, I wanted to go ahead and post what I had. Feedback is always appreciated.

LESSON 6

Great progress from everyone. It really helps to post your drawings. It gives your eyes a new way of seeing them, making corrections easier.
