hi,
glad you like the posts. I do update my DevientArt account allot as well.
that was a great link, and you have some very lucky students to get that advice passed onto them. it was very useful and i intend to make action upon some of my blind spots you covered in it.
I keep my sketchbook and pencils in my bag always, but im just tryin to build up the courage to do it. which sounds weak but i think im just concious people staring at me or coming over and having a go. which is why i tend to work from photos i take.
thanks again for the info and the feed back

hiya, thanks for your feed back,#and doing some master studies sounds like a great idea. I do spend alot of time studying the muscles but doing master studies like Da Vinci sounds like great fun. I will as you said get a few books to ad to my collection on anatomy.
Thanks again for your input :D

Cheers for that. I do know of the head measurement but ive not actually put them into effect before. i'll have to get on it. Thanks again :D

well I would like to get better at the figure in general. but also the faces. whenever I try to do either from my imagination they don't turn out half as good as when i draw from life. So you could say my ultimate goal is to get as good as my real life drawing without having to use life drawing if that makes sense? other goals are better myself at shading and lighting.

Thanks for the reply

Hiya :D
Okay, so I draw in mixed mediums. And here's a few examples of my traditional and digital drawings, I use an app for doing the digital ones on my iPad2 (I'm do use Photoshop but I'm not awesume at it yet). And I'm guessing I'm not going to get alot of love for my digital work. So here it goes:

I can now draw some significant visual studies thanks to your site and will carry on to do so into the future. Thank you very much:D

Hello,
That's good to hear as I love to show how I'm getting on and especially how much better Ive got over the last few months. You have a feat site here and I'm glad I found it.

I will upload some of my work ASAP.

Hiya ie been visiting and using the site a while and it is a blessing. I can see improvement from my repeated attempts through your classes. Although i have taken a college course many years ago i had not practiced as much as in the last few months.

anyways I'm an aspiring artist/writer/photographer. and have a Deviant Art account for the last 7-8 years. My main reason for Piping up was that a topic was not fully mentioned on the FAQ. you have a pretty strict rule on not selling drawings that have been create using your photography via your lessons. but what about for display? say if i wanted to put them up on my DA profile to show my progress? is still a toxic subject or should i not? i would gladly give some reps and put a link to site.

Many Thanks

Craig
