UPDATED: New information about Jack's gender

Ladies and gentlemen we've reached the last of the shadow practices
As promised I tried do one in colour this time
Also I decided to challenge myself even more trying to draw an actor I knew instead of random models to see if I could make both the lines and shading recognisable
So I ended up choosing Alexander Calvert as Jack Kline , they/them - from Supernatural
The third challenge was unintentional; I ended up choosing a picture with an angle I do not normally work with ... at midnight yesterday :'D

All in all I was quite worried if I even would end up finishing this with all those little things I did this time around ... for some reason though I felt just fine working with the lines yesterday and now here after a night's sleep I feel like the shading is not that bad I got to work with different mixtures of red, yellow and blue tinted earthy tones just like when I did some full saturday art projects *traditionally with acryllics however* when I was younger so that was a nice flashback ^V^

Again there's things of course I could work even more on; the lips are not dark enough everywhere, the angle is not 1:1, the forehead is too pointy, the shading around the strand of hair is a bit awkward... yet all in all I am quite happy with this one and all the little details of his muscles and blush - there's also something very satisfying about the sharpness of the shade from the nose

Thank you for following along on this little project of mine I had no idea this was something I was in dire need of practicing yet just these six drawing has really taught me something so I am quite happy with my decision

I may come back to shading studies later but for now we will enter October and November which means challenge time

Digital study from 09/27 2020
