The Blank's sketchbook and WIP

[TheBlank]

Okay, just going to do an image dump at the moment because I've been rushing on these projects for last minute drawing classes. Literally got 13 assignments handed to me in the span of a week and a half. Some of these drawings are very rushed (especially in my opinion). I feel my style, precision, and speed is getting better rapidly right now, so I need all the critiquing I can get to help fuel the flame.


My Guitar from an upward angle (black line in the left is a refelection, just didn't have time to remove.)

Work in progress that I will be completing tomorrow (due tomorrow). It's a portrait of me and my daughter.

Beginnings of a life size self portrait. I ruined it later on by using white conte (or at least I feel I ruined it).

Had to create a scene with "feeling" or importance. These is actually a photo of a flood, but I am pressed for time and this was done in the span of 30 minutes (all I could afford to spend on it) so it seems far too...rushed for my tastes. However, I doubt it will get a bad grade in this class, so I just left it at that.

I had to do 3 studies of Master works. Here they are:

M.C. Escher's hands study (not complete, cause that bastard uses really tiny crosshatchings and stippling. That and he most likely did it larger so these dots were brutal):

Study of Da Vinci's Hands (sketchbook):

And a study of a skull done in ink by M.C. Escher:

Thanks for the comments!

I Had to do a full body self portrait, and I decided to do some studies before hand to make sure I had everything set the way I wanted it.

This is the one I was happiest with and ended up working from:
