Description
Some fairly quick sketches done today while with my girlfriend =creatureKILLher . She was kind enough to model for me, in random poses of her choosing. Apparently I was taking a little too long to do a single pose, so she decided to start timing me as a challenge toward completing each sketch a lot faster. Understandable since I NEED to speed up my process, but it wasn't easy to get the hang of.The three-minute sketch of her foot (middle row, leftmost) is completely unaltered from how I initially drew it, but the others I went on and finished up without reference just to make them look more complete. Also I drew a lamp. AGAIN.
Sara's feet obviously belong to
but I'm happy to say they belong to me, too~<3

I say, I think I like the 3-minute sketch the most. You know, the ONE in this entire group that you didn't touch up afterward! The way she's got her one foot propped up between the other in that is cute.
And the one right across from it, with her hands, is a good one too. I see she had black nailpolish on that day? I always love seeing that on a girl.
I also like the fact you sketched her in red/pink, hehe.
Good on her to time you on these, as that'll certainly help you get better at drawing faster.
Oh, and the lamp is good, too.

I do like that one, because I've never even dreamed that pose up before It almost looks uncomfortable! But she's got such a wide space between her big and second toes that it really doesn't hurt her to do that at all. As for her nail polish, it wasn't black, but rather a very dark purple called "Uptempo Plum". But obviously I didn't color this so you really can't tell one way or the other XP The red presketch is thanks to her, she found a nice red pencil for me to work with for things like this. I do this sorta thing in Photoshop, too, making my presketch in red or light blue, then doing my linework over that. So now it's not so different traditionally, either
I'm sure more sketches like this would help me out, looks like I'll have to start doing that. But thanks all the same just for commenting, man, it's much appreciated

Very nicely done my friend for speed sketches...maybe next time you could try working from a photo or something and really give it your all so you don't have to make her sit there forever LOL

Oh heck yes. These are nice. Loving those hands in the bottom right, lots of nice shapes there. :3 Maybe next time play with light/shadow too?
I love that she timed you, hurr. IT'S GOOD FOR YA.

III shoulda figured you'd be happy to see these Thanks for the comments, I will be doing more eventually. As for the hands, I'm sure I'd have been able to do better with them if I'd had more time to study her knuckles and such.

Verrrrry nicely done! ^^ Lots of different poses, very good practise for you. Some of them look impossible for me to even try. Its nice that she helped you out with this. Its good to find a girlfriend who understands our "special" needs. =w= ...why the hell did you draw a lamp?

ChaztheWeasel In reply to Demon-Without-Horns [2010-08-10 04:32:45 +0000 UTC]
She insisted that I draw something still-life, an inanimate object, and we all settled on the lamp in here. It kinda stands out, seeing as it's on its own little stand in the room So yeah, that's what I went with, and I got it done in just under the time limit! Thanks for commenting, though, it's appreciated
I was happy to do these, and I'm glad she asked about it.

Ah well, when the lady demands something...we're powerless to say no. Woohoo beat your high score!
You're very welcome!
Oh SHE asked? That makes it even better. X3

Timing you on these was a good decision on her part. You'll find when you finally make it to art school that they do that a lot..and I mean A LOT. Gawd I hated it, half the time I couldn't even recognize what I had sketched after I drew it XD; Granted the five minutes sketches I managed were decent, but the one? I might as well have drawn with my left hand XD They'll probably make you do that too actually, and Gesture and blind contour drawing. Overall some really nice sketches Keep it up~ I'm sure in no time you'll be able to finish a sketch or an entire rendered piece in record time :3

I understand why she did it, and it was a good idea, but of course when she suddenly says "Alright, you've got three minutes," my immediate reaction was just AW WHAT. But I deserved it, since that first pose took me a very long time, longer than it should have. I got nit-picky. So it was for the best that I be timed, it certainly brought about more productivity
I'm sure I'd get a lot of these if I actually took a class
It's great practice, though, no surprises there. I'm sure I could find a way to have fun with it before long :3 Thank you for commenting, dear!

I know what you mean XD I always got frustrated when I ran out of time on a sketch because I hated leaving them unfinished But yeah, it's a great exercise..helps to speed up your progress as well as loosen you up a bit. Good luck if she decides to make you do a few blind contour drawings XD; You're welcome, no problem :3

Nice lam. XD I couldn't tell what time it had been done in, until I saw that it was actually upside down.

Yeah, Sara actually wrote that time down herself, so while it's upside-down for us, it was right-side up at the time for her Thanks for commenting.

I bet Pison really wants to view this deviation larger, but he sees a lamp in any iteration and is like, "UH-UH! Keep it awaaaaaaay!"
Bottom-left is the best one IMO. Middle-right too. You know you have a very unique way of drawing fingers and hands.

ChaztheWeasel In reply to uzumaKzetsumEbakudaN [2010-08-10 05:14:17 +0000 UTC]
Whaaat does Pison have against lamps..? D:\
I like the bottom-left a lot, too, but the one directly above it is also pretty nice. I'm surprised she can wedge her foot so comfortably in between her toes like that!! And I'm sure you can tell she's got a bit of "extra space" along the bed of her toes, where it almost looks like she could fit in a sixth toe next to her pinky I think it's funny, and kinda cute, but if I point it out too much she almost seems upset
Thanks for commenting, Jason.

Oh, I guess you never heard the Otakon story about a light lamp attacking Pison. He slept on the floor that year and the lamp kept falling over onto him or something as though attacking. I think. I don't recall all the details 'cuz I wasn't there
I'm actually not surprised she can do that with her feet, wedge them like that. I can *shrug* Or just did out of curiosity to see if I could. It's not uncomfortable or anything And if it seemed like my foot was super-wide to that point and someone was pointing it out, I'd be a little upset too. "You're calling my feet fat T_T Staaap~"
Hurrhurr. Y'welcome sir
