After a wonderful class with Lucile Meunier at New3dge, we were tasked with spending 5 days drawing character portraits (5 a day) to improve our skills. I chose some of my favorite movies to study as well as some photographs that I found across the internet. In just the one week I saw a massive improvement in my speed and shape simplification. I wanted to study people of many races, ages and body types to really diversify my skillset for future character designs.
