It's 2015 and a great time to work on improvement and testing your limits. Whether you believe so or not, using the correct techniques will get you far in a short amount of time.
This year I'm setting up monthly challenges for the art community. However this time I really hope to include those who don't think they can draw for shit
[b]Please[/b] feel free to join in any time.
Alright, now to business. January is going to be the hands and feet challenge.
Each and [i]every[/i] day in order to participate you will draw four [b]sets[/b] of hands or feet (if you drew hands the previous day then the next is feet. And so on)
Before you do (and this is critical) sketch out a set of either or without a reference.
If you don't know what a reference is it's simply a stock photo to work directly from
After that use several different references to sketch out your challenge. Incorporating your style is encouraged but please try to work directly from your stock photo.
At the end of the month you'll see you've gotten better. At least a bit
Post each day you participate! Good luck members

Dangit, I'm too late...

Heres me final small mix. Overall, I think I have improved, hell I ain't too bad at free handing the hands now. I'll still work on both though. Will you continue to update the challenge?

[quote]Hands and Feet[/quote] DANGIT.

Goddamn feet Least the block tutorial seems to work better
-
Bunch of hands w/o references. Lefty and object holding needs some work.
-
Tutorials are helping out a bit more now. [spoiler]stupid bird[/spoiler]
-
I still suck at the feetz Am looking up a tutorial now, should help things out
-
Getting better without references me thinks. Must work on feet over weekend though.

Edited by Jaaake AU: 1/6/2015 8:26:45 PMSoooo We alternate between drawing hands and feet each day. First we draw a set of hands without a reference and then we draw three sets using three different references? And we can use those references multiple times? Like I don't have to search feet pics every second day, right? xD [i]Are you doin' this [/i]
-
I'm sorry Smi. Id love to do this but I have the drawing talent of a 6 year old.
-
bazinga!
-
Feet need a lot more work
-
Goddamn I'm late Anyway, used my own hand for reference, then used a more angular one I found only. I can't tell if I'm getting better at this or not.
-
Should probably try more poses. Angular style works well-ish though.
-
why would you post this without showing us your hands and feet no wonder its dead already
-
This sounds like a lot of work, and the payoff is probably going to be great for those that can not draw these objects. That being said, I think I'll pass...

Edited by Raptorkid24: 1/11/2015 1:32:07 AMI think I'm getting a lil better at the feet now with the references. Still can't do detail or the toes or the proper placement n shit.
-
Next set plus catchup. Tried using a reference and it messed me up a lil bit.
-
Feet -blam!-ing suck
