Assignment 02 from Andrew Loomis Figure Drawing

Took a lot longer then I figured it would.  I was surprised how I was so off when trying to lay in the shapes for chest and head etc.  Oh well, Just means more work!

So here is my first assignment with my new mentor.

So zwarrior from conceptart.org has been gracious enough to mentor me. So here is the first assignment from the Andrew Loomis book, Figure drawing for all its worth.  These are the basic reference sheets from the book I was suppose to draw and keep.  They have not been critiqued so I will most likely be changing them haha.

Niji Waterbrush Review

This is a great tool that I found on Glen Vilppu's website.  I really got the idea for using it only for Ink drawings to do Ink & Wash, however its great for watercolor as well.  The design is sleek and the fact that they have different sizes seem to be just perfect for detail up to blocking in larger areas.  I use the brush tip personally and I love them.  The handle holds water and with a gentle squeeze its a perfect amount at the tip.  When done just squeeze a bit through the tip and cap them off.  I really love how you don't have to carry around water and such, its always available.  The price is very reasonable as well at dick blick.
