some Illustrations I did for practice last year

These are some sketches I found from last year. I know I haven't posted in a while but I do still like these so I thought I post them. Let me know your opinion.

Dynamic Figure Drawing Book Review

Dynamic Figure Drawing

               This is one of those books that are filled to the brim with brilliant techniques but reading it is like pulling teeth. Now don't get me wrong it is a great book for both beginners and advanced art students like, but definitely not a casual read. The methodology is well thought out and well explained, it goes into great detail about proportions anatomy and the dynamics of motion and how to maximize the punch of your drawings using dynamic poses.
              I give it a 3 out of 5 stars. This is the cheap Rally's Burger of technique manuals. It does the job but leaves you bloated with tons of extra information.

Line art

I drew these while watching a documentary about Ju/ Hoansi life. I believe it was called "Keep the dance alive"

Pencil Sketch

these are some more sketches from the dropped comic project











A cubism inspired sketch
In this one I was exploring braking visual rules and extreme simplification.








this is a hunter chick. I created her with a world of warcraft as a major influence.

pencil sketches

I drew these for a comic project that ended prematurely when I had no time to continue it.

penbrush sketch

A sketch I did with a pen brush/ marker ( copic brand ). I like the ability it gives me to draw like I was using a paintbrush and the fill side can do some great effects
