If your new, see about working on the human physique before attempting anything else. Just try gesture drawings to get used to it. And please, work on a more realisitic style before you attempt to distort the body in any way, it will make it easier to distort once you have an idea of more realistic styles.

If you don't mind me offering that advice.

It's a good start. So far, the best work is your self portrait. You might want to use yourself for practice, drawing your face from different angles, as well as your hands, feet, etc. Sometimes you are your best model, if you have a camera.

You are slowly gaining a grasp of anatomy. You might want to look into the drawings or da Vinci, Michelangelo and Peter Paul Rubens to see how they work on the face and figure.

For the hell of it, look up the drawings of Vincent van Gogh and see how a man, in 10 years, evolved his artistic stylings. It's quite amazing and inspirational.

Don't be afraid to make mistakes. And don't be afraid to experiment.

Seems like a lot of work. I'm lazy as hell.

I went to the city today and kept seeing large groups of people gathered around which I assumed was because of some movie shooting or something. They were just watching some lame singers and folk dancers.

Anyone else miss the Dr. Zizmor adds that were on TV and the subways?

 

[arachnid-guy]

I'm quite the annoyed one.

I love NY. Like...really love NY. t:

I went there last year exactly....but only for 3 days.

I got a lot of things done....but....still.....a week at least would have satisfied me.

AND my friends @ school have all gone off to NY for half term break [as part of their Politics/History combined trip].

I could have gone...if i had only kept politics on! ARRRGH!

 

[Abaddon]

Anyone else miss the Dr. Zizmor adds that were on TV and the subways?
