Nude-O-Rama

Ditched out on the Artist's Guild in favor of a different group this week. Three models, plenty of wine and background music. Much more laid back than the Guild. Better models too.

Really diggin' on the new technique. Definitely getting more confident working with a pen alone. Feelin' pretty good about the end results.
I tend to lose interest once I can see the end result in my mind. Wish I would have spent more time on the hands with this one.
Sketch night at the Guild: $6. Sketch night with fitness models: $10. I guess you get what you pay for.

Another figure drawing post

Another week, another trip to the Artist's Guild. Another male model. Keen observers will note that this is the same model as in my first post about drawing wieners. Perhaps the local nude model pool is rather shallow.

I found that the key to not drawing dongs is simply that: don't draw the dong. Pick something else to focus on.

I have decided to use these sessions to develop other skills I have ignored in the past. This time out I went with pen only. No rough pencil sketch, no blue pencil.

I attempted various line weights and shading techniques (is that an attempt at cross hatching?). Some of it worked, some of it didn't. All in all I was pleased.
