Anatomy Thread of Llynna

#1

ok my dear people, im trying to seriously start to work on my anatomy and already started on hands yay. since theresa told i do have an anatomy thread i started one to not disappoint her g.

heres some of the work. the hands are done with a coloured pencil. the other things are part of the ofdw.

some hands

i got some new books yesterday, the book of hundred hands and drawing the draped figure by george bridgman and figure drawing by anthony ryder. i started reading the ryder book and its just amazing, i really love it, the method somehow suits me much more than the one of loomis or such by counting heads. i tried to apply the enveloping and getting the the blocking down to the hands i did after the bridgeman book

Toll! Willkommst du zur Forum Anatomie ^^… endlich!

Deiner Handen machen fortlaufende verbesserung! (grammatisch…ouch!)

Either way, you’re improving at top speed, britta! Weitergehen! :applause:

Yay Britta! Love the OFDW work; very nice values and form. The hand studies are looking good, though you seem to be having some trouble with the thumbs in some of them. Great stuff! :slight_smile:

Hey Llynna,

Great to see your Anatomy Thread up and going! No one can resist the power of the Clippy, eh? :wink:

It’s cool, I’ve never seen some of your OFDW pieces ~ apparently you never posted them. :smiley: I like Ryder’s method very much, I was never very good at counting heads, either. :wink:

Looking forward to seeing more of your work!

Cheers, :slight_smile:

Wow, never saw this thread. Happy to have seen it now. Great ones from ofdw, hands are good, only some of them have broken fingers :smiley: The new figures re totaly amazing! Are they going to be colorised? I see that you’ve written that the frst one is finished, but I’m just curious, I really like them.

Llynna,

Your first sketch in particular is gorgeous! :thumbsup: It’s great to see your pencil work, you really have a facility for it, and I hope you push it further. Hoping to see some more pieces in this fashion! :bounce:

Cheers, :slight_smile:

great work ! i’m completely fan of your drawings :slight_smile:
the only thing i quite did’nt get is about the hands , some seems strange , like overshaped
the blue one on the second drawing , some muscles seems very round and at some places , i see carved shapes that i can’t understand , altrough the whole studies are quite expressive :slight_smile:
could you make more hand work ???
after that , all the works really appeals to me , looking forward for more :slight_smile:

Gorgeous pencil work. That figure 1 turned out so nice. If you lightly shade the background, the figure will even jump out more. Good to see you start up this anatomy thread honey! :thumbsup: Keep em coming.

#11

That first one is really a lovely piece :slight_smile: I hope we get to see a few of the steps in the production of the second one.

#12

@raz: welcome over to the thread^^. as you can see im stilla t the beginning with it. i will definetly post more hand studies, as i really need to do them. maybe some today when i can find some time.

The first drawing is final for this technique, but i will go buy a canvas some time soon and paint it in traditional media aka oil to give it to my parents. THe second one will stay black and white cause i think it will fit the task best or we will see.

@becca: thank you :). i will try to push it further cause its really massive fun to render in pencil, cant belive i forgot how much^^.

@the glog: thank you for your kind words :slight_smile: yes, some of the hands are ah well several times broken and not healed again neatly or so ;P. the overshapdness is somewhat the result of reading and using burne hogarths great anatomy book as reference. i somehwat find that through overhsaping one body part you get the proportions and little quirks best.

@ego: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: yes, i finally did and theresa made me open my own thread :slight_smile: and who can resist our charming clippy ;). i wanted to shade it lightly but couldnt work up the courage cause i thought i might mess uo with it.

@kary: if you are interested, i can provide wip pictures of the first one too. i will put them together today and post them along with an update on the second.

#13

some really great work here! love the first one in post #6 :thumbsup: keep it up.

ok, here is the promised wip of Ceallaich, the flower fairy and some update on the angel.

#15

Looking forward to seeing this wip completed. Looks like it may be a painful concept. :slight_smile:

#16

Llynna,

It’s great to see the WIP of your Calla piece! :slight_smile: I think it will make a lovely painting, and I hope you will save WIP images of that as well. :slight_smile: How do you plan to approach the painting?

Cheers,

at first i need to go and buy a canvas, then i will transfer it via some of these charcoil papers, thats not cheating isnt it? to trace your owm sketch? after that some mild color laydown in a middle range color and then i will try to just get it done. i know it will be hard to do but hey^^. of course i will provide some wips :slight_smile:

so here is another update on the angel drawing.

#18

Llynna,

Nope, transferring your own drawing isn’t cheating. :slight_smile: Your drawing is looking great! What are your plans for the background, I wonder? :slight_smile:

Cheers,

Hi…Llynna …:slight_smile:

GREAT to see your thread in here …:thumbsup:

BEAUTIFUL rendering going on in that angel…very tight,…a lot of work, but the results are
for sure worth it…:applause:
I also really like the expression on the flower fairies face…the line and your technique is GREAT
Are you going to do that angel in oils…would be great…just curious.
TAKE CARE

@becca: some people can be so fishy about this cheating thing… ah well not here but on a german forum i know, its real scary. hm the background, dont know yet, since the setting of the rpg is one of a neo gothic church thingie, mabye som of these things. but dont know…

@glen: great to see you around here :slight_smile: and i really appreciate your support :D. youre right, rendering a full thing in pencil is quite a lot of work, but tis also massive fun. i dont think i will do the angel in oil, black and white is suitible for it.

here is an update
