warpyy,

Keep going, on your next foot drawing, try to not have any distractions…feet are tough, and require your attention. They’re needy like that. :wink:

I’m a big fan of Albrecht Durer… his shading skills were great!:smiley:

#71

Martin darling,

Why not do a copy of one or several of his works? :thumbsup:

Hey Rebeccsa as promised I am posting a couple of pencil drawings I did today for this thread.
The funny thing is that I have not drawn with pencils for years so it was fun.

Also I am adding an ink drawing
of a place here in DC you might recognize.

nice to meet you roberto, 7k posts… impressive :slight_smile:

Rob,

I think it would be more interesting if you did drawings of organic things like trees, plants, etc…why not visit the Botanical Gardens, or sketch on the mall itself? Frankly, you yourself can model these inorganic objects far better than render them…so it would be interesting to see you approach organic subject matter (trees, people) in your traditional work.

Cheers,

~Rebeccak

ms rebeccak! i was just wondering if you recommend copying master works for beginners too, or shouLd it foLLow onLy after a foundation on anatomicaL knowLedge?

thanks for the shading tut btw, very informative. and it’s nice to see your oLd work :thumbsup:

Lyneran,

I think anyone should do Master Copies ~ to my mind, it’s one of the best ways to learn. I think doing a combination of Master Copies, Life Studies / Sketches, and Anatomy Drawings is the best formula for learning how to draw. :thumbsup:

Cheers, :slight_smile:
