DD #43: Nudes

Again and again I control my earned knowledge about the female curves by creating nudes from mind (first image) and then try to use some constructional rules on photo ref work (second). The more I understand the female body the easier I can copy difficult references.

DD #37: Female Parts 01

On my odyssey to the perfect female curve I will from now on do some sessions on special body parts. First session is about the abdomen, or call it the waist area. I started with research on photo references and in the end the 40th hip looked quite better than the first! Thanks Mentler.

DD #21: Sunday Special

By having no chance to get in touch with my Bamboo today I decided to run a new round of "Sunday Special". Our special guest today is multiple: first I found the great da-vinci-like thread by Michael Mentler on conceptart.org and studied his hand bones studies (1, 2) (very useful: the 3-to-3 grid!), then I started to train figure blocking on posemaniacs and last I tried some basic real still life studies. At least 4 hours pencil work - I felt pale gleams of perfection running through my veines.
Am I obsessed?
