Well here's what I whipped up today at work during my break
sorry haven't painted any of my sketches yet, but when the right time
comes I will

last time some people were saying some of the stuff was stiff
so I've been working on some of them to be more of a 'movement'
deal. If you want to see any previous sketches just look at the properties of one of the following images, copy and paste the link into your browser and switch the number down until you reach 1.

Hi Mangled,

Well, you're certainly capable of capturing movement, IMHO. None of the poses appear stiff, to me at least. These look like animation studies, or something like them...anyway, cool. The only thing I could offer is to finish a couple of them up, there appears to be some interesting characters in there

you definately have movement this time. one thing i've noticed is that all the women you draw have the same face almost. they have different haircuts but mostly the same type of features.

ya edible snowman, glad you pointed that out

they are movement studies of figures out of my head, so i just stick with a generic face with all my sketches at the very beginning.

if i decide to turn one or two into a final piece i give it more emotion, character.

i posted one up here i think a while ago
that i started to paint in opencanvas/painter
not sure if you saw it but heres one based off an angelina joline picture.
i made my own version of course.

thanks for the great feedback everyone

You have a wonderful swinging line which gives the character 'lot motion... (man, my english sux...) Especially the first one, ... 'love that! I wish i could have such a flow in my drawings...

How's about an inked version of that first one?

badoli: thank you

which one sketch were you interested in seeing finalized ?

If I get a chance, in the midst of doing so many open canvas paintings perhaps I can ink one.
