here comes my studies of the last exercise.
it was harder than the one with Kaspar, specially because I haven't practiced a lot the model of these characters.
I just finished the drawings (I need to rest) so I can not see the mistakes yet.
I will take a look tomorrow and I will be able to post a self critique of the exercise.
I want to do more of this, it is very cool.

selfcritiques about the exercise:
ReplyDeleteI don't know the model of the characters very well, I think I would come up with better drawings if I had practiced like we did with Kaspar.
I think Slab's head changes a lot from drawing to drawing... I was checking this morning and it doesn't seems right. I don't think the expression in his eyes are right too... in the original drawings they look more funny.
Ernie's hands were very hard to draw.. I think I got how to draw his feet better than his hands. Ernie's head was also a challenge... I tihnk the one in the last drawing were the worst, but I also got confused in how I could finish it.
I am a bit lost actually.
I will have lots of free time the next week... I will work on a personal project but I would also like to practice more.
Mr. John K... Should I keep working on Slab & Ernie's layouts or practice something else???
thank you,

It's not a bad start.
ReplyDelete2 things:
1) Construction should be stronger. Charcters look wobbly and soft
2) Poses and expressions are toned down and evened out.
This seems to be a big problem for many. You have to do the analysis that I wrote about
Look at the post I did on the main blog today. Character design 3.
Thank you,
ReplyDeleteI am always trying to improve construction and not to toned down poses and expressions...
I will write te analysis in the next exercise that I am doing... I will post until the end of the week.
Your posts on the main blog are very helpful... the last one was great.
thanks again,
