Chronbergs sketchbook

[Marian Rowling]

These all look really good, I especially like the softness you have achieved on the first one, profile. Lovely stuff.

Thank you very much Marian :-)!

Here are a few tests for my Butkus Skillshare project. Value schemes and some preparation for lighting. Next up an overpainted version.

HEY Chronberg it is looking really good. I like the expression of the dog in the larger version but I also like the pose with his leg striding forward/. I totally like the little girl just blissfully skipping along. I can't wait to see it coloured up.

Hi there!

Here's the so called finished sketch of the dog/girl-thing. Will probably not take it further than this. I think I learned a few things in the process though.

Yeah, the pose of the dog in this version is very static, I agree.. or "controlled" as one could say. It's after all a highly trained guard dog, waiting for input from his owner. At least that's a way of getting out of the dilemma not being very good at drawing dogs :-D ! Thank you for peaking!

Are you working on your project, or no time?

[Marian Rowling]

Hey Chronberg I really like the concept and what you have done. I haven't been able to work anymore on mine but hopefully I will get round to posting it here and on the Skillshare forums. I would like to go back to mine as I progress.
