Nice!! liking your hatching technique, the precision has me thinking of Durer. You have a great feel for body language, judging from these. Great work, keep posting!

ciao

[ivan.a.cherkov]

thanks, demented. since i'm a little out of practice now, i'm happy to hear there are people who like my drawings anyway. gives me the encouragement i need to improve. tell me if there's anything you'd do differently!

and here's another sketch. i think i'd like to complete it with some background. maybe color? i'm not sure yet.

[maxetormer]

Hello mate wellcome to CA, good work your displaying around here,
so do tell what do you do for a living? whats your background?
aside that I would love to see how you handle your color wich
by the looks of the rest of the images its probalby pretty good :D
Thanks for droping around my thread ill be hanging around here as well!

[ivan.a.cherkov]

bkdev: thanks! i'm glad you liked it.

maxetormer: thank you, man! and i'm happy to see you around here. i sure will watch out for your updates as well.
right now i'm preparing myself for studying animation. so i have to get back into the drawing routine till then. that's because in the last year i was drawing like one sketch a month. too much bowling i guess... okay, i'm kidding about the bowling, but i really need to get in shape again.

hence i'm making studies and drawing sketches like this one. that was without ref and made me realize that i need to learn more about anatomy. too many blank spaces on my anatomy map. so i'm just inventing continents to complete the picture.

[glikster]

very cool sb you have starting here.... keep it up! I'm with you in making up continents... but your topography is much closer to real life than mine....;)

[Ermac]

Cool SB, my favorite is the monster with the gun, i like the cross hatch style you use in all of your drawings.

[Ahim]

seriously now, do your sketches really grow on trees?

cause no tree can draw that good

[ivan.a.cherkov]

glickster: thanks! you know how it is. so many places to go. and so many drunken sailors not wanting to get their asses up.

ermac: thanks, man!

miguelso: thank you! guess i had better teachers.

i've made dozens of studies during the last two weeks but they're not all interesting. so i picked out the better ones to post here.

studies from an anatomy book
