Funda-Mental
Hey Ya'll! Whew... So I was going back to some training exercises so I can learn more to improve how I do my art and whatnot.
I got some sound advice on learning to use more photo references so i get a better sense of proportions and anatomy. It's always been more a challenge for me since I like to create stories in my drawings more and tend to neglect the fundamentals of making it more lifelike. So I tried scouring the image searches for nice poses. I got this nice one with boxing gloves and I thought I could use this pose and apply it on one of my characters.
I'm also trying to learn more about coloring. I added some cool shadows, which is something I haven't tried much yet. Also some warm highlights. Aside from this I'm trying to put more thought into my composition by adding more quiet areas and giving emphasis to some areas.
So slowly, really slowly, I'm trying to make sure my art is getting more and more up to the level I want to be.
Anyone else feel like me, climbing this giant wall of learning the fundamentals?
