Sitting Pose

The model in the photograph was wearing a really interesting pair of pants that reminded me of the girl character (you were free to give her whatever name you wanted) from Secret of Mana. The pose was what grabbed my attention - it just seemed so dynamic.

A Competent Profile

As I start to become more familiar with proportions and measurements for the various faces I attempt to draw, I am starting to wonder how to make a more complete portrait with my limited time. Do I stick to lines? Do I bring a brush and some ink? Which lines should I include? Which shapes are important to represent? Maybe this is a good time to look at the work other artists have done and try to work out some of their methods.

Coat and Hat

Warm, grey marker and flair tip pen. I thought I would try combining these too together, but they seem to interact in weird ways. The hard, black edges seem to really point out the proportional problems here. Tomorrow, I would like to try working in reverse - adding the grey marker after the hard lines. It doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference, but it just might be the key to making this combination a success.
