I am not sugar coating it. this 30 minutes lesson came out the worse. I had a method to simplify the body as some sort of logo but after that 2 hour session my head refuses to do that so it came out the way it did. for the last 3 i had 15 minutes each btw.

30 minutes class study. I played it straight so that's what i do to 30 seconds poses https://imgur.com/a/M9n8Uzd

I suppose that many people here went learning from many different sources, has ever happen to you that all those lessons mixed up and you felt lost?

Previousely i talked about how my exhaustion that made me lose a little bit of progress. After a well deserved rest i got back at it again and now i remember there is something more to it than just me being tired. I tried to follow other tutorials that I thought being enteresting, yet they entered my head and when i draw... they all overlap into some aimless mess that makes me lose the whole purpose of the drawing.

I need some help "organizing" those lessons, doing so would probably improve my situation.

I genuinely have no idea on how to do it. I would try to take my private informations out of the recording.

go to imgur, go to the "new post" om the up-left corner, the post will be reserved to those that will be sent the link so do not worry.

Hi, i made an other hour of drawing session and i thought that maybe I am getting a little worse from the previous lessons, i don't know why I just have a weird feeling.

I do not have an "aim" per say. I just make the faces the same way i do figure drawing. basically i symplify the face like a logo and i put the elements in the way that makes it the more dynamic. And also a tutorial on youtube that is overlaying my inner thoughts and i get lost in my process, so here is why after the first face the result is kinda shoty. I searched for other methods and there are none that have a more free flowing method. It is all a bunch of repetitions and measures that clog the canvas. I hate both the Loomis method and the Reilly one because they pretend i should draw like a geometer with all those planes and details that makes me wanna give up drawing entirely.

if having that process in mind means i can draw without needing it i'll swallow the bullet then. but first i wil have a lot of problems even folllowing the process, it will look like a mess and for my experience messes are not something i learn a lot from.

I am sorry but after seeing some tutorials, that method is atrocious to follow. basically is subdividing on top of drawing circles on top of other subdivisions, and that is just the front position. There has to be a more intuitive way to draw a face that can be used for different proportions, right?

Hi, since i am having bad luck with poses i tried doing faces for the first time. https://imgur.com/a/hU6l7vh

Hi, after the 2 hour drawing session is like my brain is sucked dry to try aagain and no joke, is like i don't remember how to draw well. My lines are random, i forget proportions and when i try to redo all over again i feel too tired.

Hi I did my first 2 hour class session and... look i was really tired that day so it might feel obvious why it doesn't look as good

Hey, see? You nailed it better at your first attempt. It doesn't even need to be completed 100% if you get the most important lines first.

Nex tip, try drawing the head as a D. that way it also adds to the lines of the body

About the shading part i think you meant by this. About the sketchy lineart, i don't know, man. I started using messier lines but it came out as an imprecise mess. https://imgur.com/YqwyRpF

Maybe if i have an example i would understand this a lot better.

Anyways, thanks
