[Oblio]

Welcome!
This is the thread for the crap of Oblio and Retro.
Proceed carefully.
We have decided to start this in duo to balance the force.
I'll roll my crap first.

this are unreferenced sketches - mostly done at job (while no one is looking) :)

[Oblio]

and...

[Oblio]

and so on...

[Oblio]

while this is done at home.
Cast drawing (sort of):

[Oblio]

and studies from a book or so.
i try to continue the existing drawing - if it's a hand study in the ref. i try to buid the whole arm - it quite fun and helps the learning.

Now.. back to you Retro! :D

[StephenC]

oblio has a s.book thread!,....i must update mine...

[jester]

Great idea to do a joint sketchbook! I'll drop by frequently!

Jester

[retro]

http://free.pages.at/retro002/crap024.jpg

thanks oblio, i think i owe you a (cold) one. :chug:

i got this one done on the afternoon. that bottle already caught my eye a couple of times in the kitchen. i have no clue whats inside. also i was astonished it was easier to paint than the books on the left. lol. also started a second piece, but it frustrated me even more, i wish i had thee patience. and uh, it's acrylics.

[retro]

http://free.pages.at/retro002/crap025.jpg

eggtempera, only painted w/ white. if you misplace one stroke you can not undo it. as you can see i misplaced about 2 dozen ..

[davi]

retro the looseness in your portraits are amazing, reminds me of egon scheile/klimt's sketch work.

[retro]

thanks davi, but i think in my case looseness equals being not precise. :(

http://free.pages.at/retro002/aquarell_kreishafen_rd_001.jpg
this is bout 1.5 years old. anyone guess, what this is meant to be? :D

hey oblio, it's your turn.

[Oblio]

wait wait.. my turn.. sure - i'm thinking my next move.
Hmm... i'm cornered here.
Ok.. knight to e4 :)

I hope to get something done quick or i'm busted!
About our 2hours job plan.. how about.. a bank robbery.. oh no - wrong thread - 2hours for... hmm.. do you have a cast?
no? well... it's either a cast, a portrait (self will do - but i think this is the easy way these days) or.. something like a vase, fruit etc.
Let's say a self portrait for 2 hours - AS REALISTIC AS WE CAN? Measureing and stuff? and.. render - very detailed render.
How about that?
As for my crap - it's in the making. Gimme some time until later today, k?

cya,

Oblio

[retro]
