Nice, really. Was this a col-erase pencil or did you just use a normal color pencil?

Loomis rules =P
Now that you have some fundamentals down, maybe try some sketches from life?

thanxs for the replies

jester : its simple blue leads in a mechanical pencil, i just like the value range i can get with colored pencils ... and you cannot really erase so its fighting one of my bad habits :)

amphex : i will scan and post some life drawings i did last year (i was in an art school in france and we had about 6hours of life drawing per week) but i had to leave this school because it costed too much money, now i'm on my own, but i'm attending life classes and some other drawing classes in workshops, so i will post more later too :)


here are some more doodles from today, the girl has anatomy problems (especially the shoulder) but I was more working on trying to loose my lines and more letting the pencil flow over the paper ...
