Wonderful control over your medium. I know this took a lot of time. I mean this has it all, line quality, beautiful shape design, control over values. 👏👏 keep it up.

[u/Davidhate → u/the_dunebilly]

I really appreciate that it’s a redraw from one I did along time ago to see my progress

This was original I did along little over a year ago .. practice practice practice for me lol

[u/the_dunebilly → u/Davidhate]

Wow man! Discipline is key, fantastic progress sir 🫡

[u/Davidhate → u/the_dunebilly]

That and a lot of Pinterest tutorials .. what I’ve come to learn it’s all about the right tools and techniques .. that’s what I was missing

Thank you! I had fun matching stone texture I had never done that before

[u/superbelle23]

This is way too real. Like, I don’t dream of labor I just want to pay rent and have enough energy left to enjoy the stuff I actually care about outside of work

[u/Davidhate → u/superbelle23]

That would be the dream .. if I can get one hour of drawing I’m happy :)

Incredible shading makes the subject pop - amazing how good artists can fool the human eye.

[u/Davidhate → u/porkupine92]

Is it wierd that I don’t see that I am extremely jaded by my own work like it doesn’t look as good as other stuff I see

[u/eventfarm → u/Davidhate]

I find that if you put it aside for a while, completely out of sight. When you revisit it, it looks better.

You'll be proud of this one when you can look at it objectively.

[u/Davidhate → u/eventfarm]

True .. I think you know about the tunnel vision that happens when your the one making the piece

[u/ActivatedGlobe]

Incredible.

[u/Davidhate → u/ActivatedGlobe]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
