just some more characatures of my former classmates.
and xia, yeah, that was me. i look exactly like that too.

[skrubbles]

looking good... who's the top guy? Looks like Ronald is next, ,then Hojo.

Anyway, you should edit your first message and change the subject line with the date of your last update of images... that way people will know when there's something new in your sketchbook.

[kenchan]

hey skrubbles, the top one is jeff.

[skrubbles]

wow... you know exactly what facial features to exagerate in these characatures... I've never been able to get the hang of that... whenever I've done characatures I've had to tell the viewer who it was suppose to be and then maybe they'll see it.

Good work... keep it up.

I like your figure studies, the new ones are very gestural and have alot of movement to them. I'm guessing you drew from the same pose multiple times? Where you meant to switch up the style in which you drew for each one?

[kenchan]

Thanks for the comments, no, this was a free figure drawing session, being that I didn't have any assignment to work on.

I just don't like 20 minute poses as much as I do short ones, so I just kept on drawing the same pose over and over. And then when it got even more stale, I changed it up a bit and drew with my other hand. In fact, those pics where there are letters in it, there are drawings in there that are done with my left hand.

on my site I tell you which ones are done in left in the captions. to keep you guessing.

[Groover McNab]

Awesome sketchbook you have here! I love the life drawing stuff especially, a lot of energy in your lines.
