Heckling Hare

Here's a little process. I blocked out the general forms, and double checked my negative space with the pink color. I also looked at my angles.








The end result was kind of nice. I actually like it sort of.

    Great teeth! They look so intimidating, but you did a good job handling all those details sensibly. Nice idea for checking negative spaces, too!

    The finish is great and very accurate.

    Step one left out some of the basic construction and went straight to a finished silhouette - esp the dog.


    Step 2 is missing, showing how the secondary forms are constructed- like the folded flesh - the lip- of the dog, that is peeled back around his snarling teeth.

    I think because you have a really good eye, you are naturally wanting to copy it exactly, rather than reasoning the forms out.

    It looks like 70% eyeballing, 30% thinking.

    We should all aim for 50% eye, 50% brain.

    The goal is to be able to apply the techniques that make those old drawings look so great to new drawings that you create.

    When I get a chance, I will take the first 2 steps and demonstrate the construction.
