Day 12 video cam
Make fun of ancient people's myth about cameras, stealing soul from people to store in a camera
Day 13 Castle
Whenever there is a subject of building, its time to play with composition. Still need more mileage for drawing really small.
Day 14 Tool bag
nothing special.
Each tells its own story, and I thought this before I ready your descriptions. Well done.

Hello,
In this post I am seeking two pieces of advice. Any critique for the quick sketches focusing on breasts is greatly appreciated. I have included two versions of five different poses from the unit. The first is my attempt prior to the video. The second is my attempt while following Stan.
Secondly, I am wondering what the best process is for taking photos or scans of my drawings. I find my charcoal drawings are often too faint, so I cannot use a black&white option on a scanner. I also know Stan often discourages poor lighting but anytime I am taking a photo I struggle with a shadow of my hand or the camera. How do you share your traditional drawings and sketches cleanly on a digital platform?
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vince
Hey Vince,
I did a couple of sketches to show you how to think about the breast while drawing them. Just remember that they are 3 dimensional objects sitting on the 3 dimensional shape of the rib cage. You will see I used cross sections to show there mass, this is something you can do to help you think 3 dimensionally. Hope this helps :)

Hello everyone! Here are some of my gesture studies. I think these are all hour long sessions, starting at only a few seconds per pose and then ending with ten minutes or so. I do a lot of traditional figure drawing with pencil and charcoal as well, but the digital ones are easier to upload.
Wow, Daniel. I love how accurate and exaggerated your gesture drawings are. How long have you been drawing gesture? I ask because I recently started and want to know how your gesture has improved over time.

Hey everyone. here are my robo beans attempt.
I think my biggest weakness is that im too scared to exaggerate my drawings and im very weak when it comes to the twist. (Also if you spot any weaknesses i may have that i didn't mention please mention them in your reply! thanks)
Feedback/Tips will be greatly appreciated! :)
Hi @fooze ,
I find many of my gestural drawings are stiff and need exaggeration too. One thing Stan suggested in the figure drawing course was to redraw any stiff poses beside your first drawing. Keeping the same pose in mind, start with the gesture line and exaggerate the C-curves and S-curves. I imagine this would work well for the bean and robo bean too.
Good luck and have fun.
Vince
