So I thought I'd have ago at the cross-hatching thing that Catflees posted up the other week. Cheated a bit, by getting the basic shape in by tracing from the reference photo, but then put all the details in by hand. My left eye is not that wonky in real life.Posted 6 months ago # -
@MM

MB, I really like it. I don't think the method you used is cheating, really nice result.
Rob, that's cool.
Dez, that's scary!Good thread

Thanks for the comments! I'm too quick to jump on the pooter and do some manipulation, it's good fun to take the pencil out for a turn.

From a snap at the Q's.
STW Art Club - "Self Portrait" by SGMTB, on FlickrI'll probably have a go at close up portrait next.
NOte: 1 feeling lucking in Picasa and shadows darkened a bit.
I need to get some softer pencils.

Samurai, your blending is really good but your paper let's you down. Nice effort.
Posted 6 months ago # -
Yeah and ta. I just grabbed a sheet of printer paper and a 2H pencil on the spur of the moment. I think I'll ask for some proper drawing materials for christmas. It's been a while and I fancy getting back into it.

lol, you're bang on there. Good cross hatching though.

Art clubs looking good! Some lovely work this week.
Samurai have you got pictures of your old work? Your style would suit a really smooth paper like Bristol Board. I use that all the time now with stumps.

Nope, I lost virtually everything in a big folder when we moved house many years back. I was gutted.
All I have to hand is this that I drew in five minutes at Geneva airport because I was bored.
And this from a party when this drunk girl insisted I draw her something.
As I say, I need to get back into drawing. I used to be ok but it's amazing how quickly you forget how to get the best results.

I wish I had the taken but I've hardly progressed from when I was about 10.
