Do those 20 squats fag

Drawing from imagination helps you give something to compare HOW you're learning to WHAT you're learning. Study still lifes or from other references and then test yourself by doing some from imagination. Compare, contrast, make changes and go at it again.

Had a brain aneurism while typing that. Fixed:

Thanks man

>>2389516
do gestures from proko tutorial, boxes from drawabox and practice rendering still lifes from ctrlpaint for 10 hours a day. good luck fag. Sticky.

>>2389516
hey man,
what >>2389610 said. drawabox is a great grind.

go do gesture drawings, too! i did music as well, and just keep in mind - just like when you're transcribing music, don't worry about the individual notes at first. get the general flow of the phrase and then work to get the individual notes (details).

for now. Those exercises are good, but not what you want. The grind you seek is academic cast drawing. Start sight-size method then switch to the comparative method. Take your time and do it right. In the same way that scales train required muscle memory this will train "muscle memory" for four important faculties:
Accurate value observation
Accurate proportion observation
Accurate value reproduction
Accurate proportion reproduction

Pepper in life drawing/ imaginitive drawing and bridgman studies, but focus on the academic drawings. Once you have developed those four faculties you will have and easier time absorbing master studies as well as *observing* the world around you for detail that you will *reproduce* in your sketches, imaginitive or not.

Yes, now go away.

>>2387537
No, it's the exact opposite way around. The more successful you become, the more haters you get. Haters are a symptom of success, not the cause of it.

>>2387542
can you get haters as soon as you start?

Who/what started the retarded "put some mechanical looking stuff on a persons head and it turns him into a robot"-photobashing trend?

That's some real stupid question rite ther son. I need to compare it to the planet I'm coming from or wherever I came from. I need a reference to compare the earth to.

okay got you,
so where you came from was exactly like our earth except everything was like perfectly fine and impeccable and you came to our earth. compare from a perfect one to the one we have now, what impressions would you get? Its for a school assignment idk im dying her

Are you trying to fetch ideas for your own essay, or is it a data gathering project?

If it's the first, come on, man; it's not that hard to put yourself into someone else's (your idealized character) shoes, just keep trying and don't be a lazy fuck.

Kinda looks like Virgil Finlay

I love how well the star is drawn, bowie would be proud

nice idea for a hustle though I might steal it

I gonna buy it.

Looks like your pretty standard angel cherub sculpture. Considering its wear/lack of preservation, dirtiness, and the fact it's outdoors, it's probably part of a graveyard.

The photographer is Sara Zinelli. Found it via reverse image search where she's selling it as a stock photo on gettyimages:

Here it is on her website:

I can't really make out what the page says. You can either try to find the article online or contact her directly to ask.

>>2392627
In other words this is pretty standard sculpturing? Or at least to an extent?

>>2388592
Was this spurred by my comment?

The end result speaks for itself, the problem is that /ic/ can't even implement those basic rules so they hate on him.
