Thank you! I have an interview next week that I'm stoked about, as well as other prospects. I hope your job situation works out OK!
It's weird. I settled on a reference image and started the drawing, and I essentially picked up my progress where I'd left it in October. I like your chunky beefy anatomy style (and that DudeShep/Kaidan Valentine totally makes me smile), and I'd enjoy seeing you get back to it. Have you thought about easing yourself in with simple, fun pieces and doing some self-study to work through those feelings of suckage? I've made a load of improvement by studying pro artists' line work and Andrew Loomis' anatomy texts, which help me get a better grasp on the fundamentals (volume, weight, gesture, composition, etc.) and understand how to sketch and render various tricky business (facial features, materials, and my current twin hellions of cloth and hair). I remember you posting some life drawing studies a while back. Do you have any plans for more art classes?
