fun project - thank you

Pose #16

Did a few more this morning.

I'm struggling with the wrapping lines. It is not obvious to me which direction to make them.

Redo after watching critique. My proportions are a bit cleaner now. Especially around the tilt of the rib cage and pelvis. Also the width of the pelvis on the side view and the width of the feet on the side view.

And now for something completely different...

Here we go.

Going back and trying old projects. Got the overall height correct by using the "circle" of the head as a unit of measurement. Used loose sketching and then made adjustments. Used Krita to compare my drawing with the reference.

my level 2. I did not include all the small thumbs. Just the one that I chose to enhance with more values. I think I learned a lot in the level 1 exercise that helped me on level 2. Fun project.

Second round of level 1 thumbs. I took some of the thumbs from my first round and played with value range, cropping, and adding shapes. A lot of fun. It is amazing how a single reference can seed so many compositions. I'm including round 1 as well to have both rounds in the same post.
