Here’s the skull with better lighting. I think it’s pretty good, but the angle is weird.

Here is the original, the contrast really helps it pop, without it, it’s still *good* but not as good imo

Color practice, I cheated a slight bit by pushing up the contrast to make the blues pop, so I’ll post the original unedited in the comments. I kinda like this dude.

Sketchbook painting! It’s supposed to be orange, red and black but blues work too. Playing with hues and color with my blue guache tube.

Simple nurse sketch from last night, I am content with it, even with how simple and small it is.

Second half

Second half of the studies down below.

Got the first hour of studies done today, I’m honestly feel pretty okay about this bunch. Being able to work on personal stuff last night was really nice, even if I have to make up for it today.

I will post my daily art studies tomorrow, my lack of solid output has kicked my ass, so instead of an hour tonight it will be two hours tomorrow.

I want to focus on working on some other projects tonight to brighten my mood, or I think I might go nuts.

Second half. I think you can see the point where I was getting increasingly frustrated. Sorry half the photos aren’t correctly aligned, I feel like too much ass to fix it; too lazy.

Second half of the sheets below.

This was by far the most frustrating, demotivating session so far. Bad figure one after another really tore me apart, and I am not happy with anything I had put down.

I am unsure if a break is necessary or I should just push through it.

Yesterdays studies

I put off my study too late, I did most of them but the remaining 10 figures I’ll do tomorrow morning with a cup of coffee, and I’ll post it with acceptable lighting (the morning sun)

Tried doing some extra blue mage art, realized too late I accidentally re-created Raya-Lucaria mages. It was, and still is incredibly frustrating. I will have to start from square one. A pity.

I found this on Pinterest and I think it perfectly describes my mood sometimes. I feel this on a spiritual level, this is one step away from being my spirit animal, look in awe, and in horror.

Y’know after an arduous study dude, and seeing this? Made my night. Your stuff is always just so good, so vivid, so dynamic. Always brightens my day.

Last two.

Studies for tonight, last two pictures down below.

This time around was very exhausting, my motivation isn’t high and due to all the fuck-ups it was a bit demoralizing. However I’m aware improvements come with time, they are never immediate.

My studies for the day. The right page is jam packed so it might be difficult to read. Today is the second day out of what should be many.

The perfect snowflake landed on my hand this morning, the picture can’t do it justice. I love snow, I wish I had more of it.

I’ve begun the art grind. I’m going to 60 one minute gestures every day from now on.

Are they good? No. However I have no doubt I will see improvement *eventually*.

I apologize for the shitty lighting, it’s all I have currently.

I got better lighting on some of my sketchbook pages so I wanted to share!

He lacks his silly hat.. this is a tragedy..

HIS NAME IS SHITHEAD AND HE LIKES TO EAT BONES.

I got that wacky disease called probably on the spectrum and the symptoms consist of; getting down with it, and side effects including, but not limited to; an insatiable craving for pop tarts.

Can you bogey better than I? My bet says you can, But can yours?

Hurr hurr hur hur hur hurr.

Concept sketches for my blue mages, I really like these guys.

Totally forgot to post here, my bad! Here’s a gator I sketched. Because I don’t want to keep on calling him “bathhouse gator” I named him Yukka.

Sketches in the morning sun

I’ve peeped the snowman again..he’s more depressed. I’ve never witnessed something so sorrowful.

I looked through my last sketchbook and found this banger black cleric design, I don’t know why I slept on this.
