[QUOTE="rpace, post: 861247, member: 7078"] [b]more[/b] I realise that sketch might leave something to be desired in terms of what comes next. Once I'm happy with the basic figure I'd do another quick rough -- since I ususally draw on bond paper, which is translucent, I'd usually just put a piece of it over the sketch and go at it with either a chisel-tip marker (bleagh -fumes) or a big fat primary pencil. Since I did this all in Painter, I just went over with a thicker brush. At this point I'd determine where I'd like to put shadows (and the light source). If I were just doing a B&W piece I'd go straight from here to the finish -- though I might do some detail roughs for certain body parts along the lines of the head shot you did -- especially if I were to do something strange like extra fingers or new textures. BTW -- in your body sketch -- the right hand looks like it's scratching or holding his. . . .well, you know. Looking forward to see what you do with this! Good going! ~R [/QUOTE]
