Character Practice #2

Some adoptables/character design whatever practice. I drew the sketches for all these on drawpile originally. I wish I had time to draw there more but hopefully I will in the future. I thought I would indulge by drawing some demonic characters.

Portrait Practice #5

I thought it would be a good challenge to participate in Ahmed Aldoori's 50 heads challenge. I plan to do 100 ultimately. I want to improve my proficiency in the placement of facial features. And use it as painting practice as well. I plan to paint one head a day after (non art)work. I've been reviewing Hampton's notes on heads. I think reviewing Loomis and the Reilly method, watching Proko vids on the head  are worth doing. Here is what I've done so far. Ahmed's pinterest board is where I got a lot of these heads to paint.

I felt like moderndayjames' challenges helped a lot even if mentally. Doing 100 studies felt like a good achievement and felt like I might have been making progress.

I have been having difficulty finding illustration work this month but I'll keep on trying.
