Title: Roger's drawing thread
Post by: PocketIllust on February 11, 2011 04:02 PM
let's start off with some simple perspective

the rooftops, the sidewalk and the bottom edge of the buildings (which you forgot to draw) should meet at the same two vanishing points

his books are no longer in print but you can get pdf's of them here: http://alexhays.com/loomis/ (http://alexhays.com/loomis/)

as a side note! most of the time buildings do not have the same width, same amount of space, or same flat rooftops, so try varying them up next time

I read his figure drawing book and i got significantly better.  Keep up with perspectives. It will help you a lot when all of your skills come together.

oh and thanks for the link Jeinu

Quote from: rtilyou really need to pick up some art books and study the fundamentals

oh fuck it.   This mean war.

I'll live and breath art
I'll spend 70-100% of my spare time drawing.   No exceptions.
I'll buy drawing books and fucking embed the fundamentals into the inner workings of my goddamn soul.
I'm gonna get a fucking easel, go to the fucking park, and fucking draw until my hands bleed.
Hell, I'll bring a sketchbook and pencil wherever I go, No matter fucking what

I'm fucking serious about this.  I'm going to get better, no matter what.   Even If it means exhausting all of my funds, I'm still gonna do it.

fuck

are you fucking kidding me guys? buck is an artistic genius - no, he is the single best fucking artist of our time.
don't dissuade roger with your pretentious LOGIC and REASON. buck draws all his art directly from his beautiful autistic soul, and that's something you normies will never understand.
look at this for christs sake

if this drawing doesnt simply scream emotion to you, if you somehow fail to see the brilliance behind this masterful work of art, i will singlehandedly hunt you down and castrate anyone even remotely related to you.
