Very 'clean' looking pencils, especially for studies. They look great, and I'd imagine the extra time you take keeping em tidy gives you a chance to stare at the subject and get to know it. That's often the case with me as well. I especially like the last one with the contrapposto, but it would be even better if you got the feet in there since balance is one of the coolest things to figure out when it comes to poses like that (i.e. the broken pillar concept).

Looking great!

Craig

Also tried to draw some heads today from loomis but failed each time, didn't know heads could be so hard to draw. Guess i'll just have to keep trying, i just got easily discouraged when something goes really wrong. If anyone has some good tips/tutorials about drawing heads, let me know.

Heh - im a quick replyreturner ;)
Very nice studies - you got a very good eye for anatomy! And thats some very nice pencil work!
The tree dosnt look crappy at all! You should frame it, would look really nice!
Draw draw draw :^^:

[Malavon Despana]

And you always told me you couldn't draw?? Yeah RIGHT !! You lied to me, YOU LIED TO ME!! haha :D , damn you. You should've put this thread up ages ago, pal!!

You got some real potential, so keep up the good work, for you have talent and great skills. I don't even try to begin to understand how you use the pencils to get such perfectly smooth result. You ought to have some magical pen or sadistic skills, 'tis true I swear!!!

The tree looks authentic and really awesome, anatomy studies show great potential and the female/human shape is awesome. Keep it up, lad, for you hold the key to the gates of succession!!!

Get yer arse away from the murky cave and join us to the world of sadistic visions!!

Cheers,
