life drawing (nudes)

[Vijil]

Just to show you where I'm at with life drawing.

The females are from live models while the male is done with no reference. Took no more than 30 minutes each. Done on A1 size paper, using chalk, charcoal and conti for the red.

wow you've got a very unique way of drawing these women, it shows this is more like art than just an excuse to see a naked woman, I like it. especially figcity that one shows just part of a woman, the rest of her is off-screen so you can't see her face or her legs, its good. Keep it up

[Artoo]

this is a really interesting style you got there... somewhat dark and mysterious and it really rocks because of that!

[Numenor]

Nice Vigil.

I like the way you've distorted the shapes of the bodies, lends a nice effect to it all.

[Dimension]

mmh. interesting style, but not quite my cup of coffee.

The first figure is my favorite, it looks like rumpled clothing casually tossed on a chair or the edge of a bed. Were you trying for that texture?

The second one shamelessly displays your previous artistic influences. The glints off of her sharply angled skin reveal her to be a mech. ;)

The third one has no such gross distortion, however. I like the way you've shown light sources, although this particular technique / media leaves no room for less intense reflections, which makes for an oddly bright red nipple.

Squid, I think the second one is the male:p

[Vijil]

hehe. yeah. its male.

Numenor: Other than the second one, they are not distorted. Its interesting how something based off real life can look distorted to someone because of how they expect it to be. If you saw the person in a photo you would not question their form.

Squid: No I just drew her how she was. She was pretty relaxed. As for the third one, I think its the camera that made the nipple like that, it wasn't on the original.

There Is No G In Vijil. Pick One:

1. Blind.
2. Stupid.

[Omi-kun]

nice, I like your different styles. Really shows you've been working hard on it! I need to cram and post my own nude drawings, since it seems to be the fad now.

[Vijil]

two people post some nunde drawings and it becomes the fad... thats the relic gallery for ya. Great stuff.
